Possible Epstein Suicide Note Is Sealed In New York Court, Report Says

The newspaper says the note was sealed in a case against Nicholas Tartaglione, and a judge is being asked to release it to the public.

  • On Thursday, The New York Times petitioned Judge Kenneth Karas to unseal a purported suicide note by Jeffrey Epstein that has been sealed in a New York courthouse.
  • Former cellmate Nicholas Tartaglione claimed he discovered the note inside a graphic novel after Epstein accused him of assault, though Tartaglione later questioned the document's authenticity.
  • A legal dispute between Tartaglione's attorneys prompted Judge Kenneth Karas to seal the document, which was not included in the Justice Department's public file releases earlier this year.
  • The Justice Department told NewsNation it is difficult to comment on the note, as neither the government nor the public has seen the sealed document.
  • Despite Epstein's death being ruled a suicide, the note's emergence occurs amid ongoing conspiracy theories and reports of shredded documents at the Metropolitan Correctional Center.
