Federal Judge Releases Alleged Jeffrey Epstein Suicide Note
Judge Kenneth M. Karas said the document could be released after The New York Times petitioned, while its authenticity remains disputed.
- A handwritten note purportedly written by Jeffrey Epstein was made public after being sealed for nearly five years in a legal case involving his former cellmate, Nicholas Tartaglione, who found it after Epstein's first suspected jail suicide attempt in July 2019.
- The note was discovered inside a book in the cell and includes phrases such as 'They investigated me for month-- found nothing!!!' but its authorship has not been independently verified and it was not included in official government reports on Epstein's death.

- U.S. District Judge Kenneth Karas ordered the note's release following a petition by The New York Times, with prosecutors acknowledging strong public interest despite ongoing questions about the note's significance and authenticity.
