The FBI and Department of Justice have concluded that Jeffrey Epstein, the convicted sex trafficker who died in jail nearly six years ago, committed suicide and had no “client list,” according to a report.
An Axios report detailed a memo from the federal law enforcement agencies that found no evidence Epstein blackmailed powerful figures, kept a “client list,” or was murdered.
FBI officials including Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino have previously insisted that Epstein committed suicide while in prison, which the memo indicates is backed up by video footage.
Attorney General Pam Bondi released a slate of files related to Epstein back in February but which contained little new information. Bondi then called on Patel to release “the full and complete Epstein files,” but the FBI director said in late May that he was not “going to rush” the release, which was taking longer because of the many redactions related to the victims.
The FBI and DOJ signaled in the memo on Sunday that no new files would be released following these conclusions.
“It is the determination of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation that no further disclosure would be appropriate or warranted,” the memo said, citing sensitive information related to the victims and the spreading of “unfounded theories” about Epstein.
