Overview

• The Department of Justice and FBI concluded in a newly released memo that Jeffrey Epstein hanged himself in his 2019 federal detention and that there is no evidence he maintained a “client list.”
• Mark Epstein publicly derided the findings, saying he “laughed at how stupid it was” and reiterated his belief that his brother was likely murdered.
• President Trump dismissed renewed inquiries at a Cabinet meeting, questioning why Epstein “has been talked about for years,” while MAGA allies like Alex Jones and Laura Loomer attacked the memo and called for Bondi’s resignation.
• House Judiciary Committee Democrats led by Rep. Jamie Raskin have demanded the release of additional records, including documents referencing President Trump.
• Investigators released nearly 11 hours of surveillance footage from outside Epstein’s cell, with a missing one-minute timestamp now under review by the DOJ.
