Judge Unseals Belatedly Obtained Suicide Note of Late Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein
May 8, 2026 • Google News World
A federal judge has unsealed a purported 2019 suicide note from Jeffrey Epstein, according to reports. The document is believed to have been written by Epstein while he was in custody at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York.
The note, which has not been made public, is reportedly being released as part of an ongoing investigation into Epstein’s death. It is unclear what information the note may contain or how it will be used in the investigation.
Epstein died on August 10, 2019, while awaiting trial on charges related to sex trafficking and conspiracy. His death was ruled a suicide by hanging.
The unsealing of the note comes as part of an effort to provide more transparency into Epstein’s case. The documents are expected to be released in response to a court order filed by a group of plaintiffs who claim that the government withheld information about Epstein’s death.
It is not clear when or if additional documents will be released as part of this process.
