Mark Epstein Challenges Official Story in OIG Interview on Epstein’s Death (Part 3) (3/6/26)

About this episode

In the aftermath of Jeffrey Epstein’s death in federal custody in August 2019, his brother Mark Epstein met with investigators from the Department of Justice’s Office of the Inspector General (OIG) as part of the broader review into the circumstances surrounding the death at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York. During the meeting, Mark Epstein raised serious concerns about the official conclusion that his brother died by suicide, arguing that the available evidence left major questions unanswered. He told inspectors that he did not believe the suicide determination made sense given the injuries described in the autopsy and the unusual conditions surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s detention in the days leading up to his death.

Mark Epstein also questioned the failures inside the jail that night, including the fact that surveillance cameras in key areas reportedly malfunctioned and that the two correctional officers assigned to monitor the unit failed to perform regular security checks. According to accounts of the meeting, he pressed investigators to examine whether negligence or misconduct inside the facility contributed to the death and urged them to look more closely at the medical findings and timeline. His conversation with the OIG inspectors became part of the broader federal review into how Epstein was able to die in custody while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges, a failure that sparked widespread scrutiny of the Bureau of Prisons and the conditions inside MCC at the time.

In this episode, we're going to pick up where we left off with the Mark Epstein interview with the OIG inspectors. Redacted now as far as the person that he were you saying that he spoke with someone on the telephone prior to August 9th or 10th, Epstein the night. Redacted or something, Epstein the evening before he died because it was indesernable, yeah. Redacted and was that a female? Epstein, yes it was, question and do you want to say the name and ask if that's correct. Redacted is the name redacted, Epstein, yes. Redacted is that who he spoke to, Epstein, yes, question and you spoke to who is redacted

to Mr. Epstein. Epstein a friend, redacted a childhood friend, a long time friend, Epstein a number of years, redacted were they in a relationship? Mr. Epstein is exact nature of it. I don't know because I didn't know her, but I know she's been. I just found out she was in the picture for a number of years. I believe eight years. Redacted in a romantic relationship. And I believe so, yeah, Richmond, what you did know confirmation, Epstein I can't ask Jeff. Richmond right, obviously, redacted, have you spoken with her, Epstein, yes, question and did she say that they were in a relationship, Epstein, yeah, question, she did, Epstein, I believe it to be so and I found pictures, redacted and have you seen, have you spoken with her since August 9th, 2019, Epstein, yep, redacted, did she tell you what the conversation took place during ind discernible, Epstein, he said he sounded upbeat and that she didn't

think he committed suicide, it didn't sound like he was doing that, redacted, but did she say anything that they talked about though, Epstein, no, I didn't want to get to personal and you know at the time, it was like, you know, my brother is dead, I ind discernible conversation that I need to know, you know, redacted, when did you speak with her, Epstein a number of times since then, redacted, okay, but when specifically, you talked about the conversation that she had with Jeffrey ind discernible, Epstein, I don't remember the exact date, but I think it was just a few weeks of the death, redacted, okay, but she didn't tell you anything specifically about why he contacted her or what they spoke about, Epstein, no, question, no, just that he sounded upbeat, Epstein, yeah, he was, yeah, that's like she made ind discernible, redacted, well she surprised that he called her, Epstein, I don't know, to be honest with you, I didn't ask her that much, she didn't say, oh shit, yeah, I didn't get any kind of reaction from her, redacted, all right,

do you know if Jeffrey changed his will, leading up to August 9th, Epstein, I was told he changed his will, he did, now traditionally my brother and I were not in each other's wills because I don't need his money, he don't need my money, so he changed the will from my understanding, now I'm not the executive of his estate that has nothing to do with his estate, the executives don't even talk to me or anything, but from what I understand all of his assets were put into a trust where they were supposed to be put into a trust after Jeffrey died, and they paid out all the money to the victims and is redacted, and the trust dictates what happens to his money, I'm not the trustee and I'm not privy to his trust, redacted, who did you hear it from, that he put it in his will, he changed his will, Epstein, well it was public knowledge, yeah, and his attorneys also told me that he changed his will, but this is in the paper, this was ind discernible, and he was trying to use that as well, he was contemplating suicide, I think maybe he was contemplating

being killed in prison and wanted to make sure that his will was up to date, I don't think it was fear, I don't think it was fear of suicide, I think you know, I don't think he was planning suicide, I think anything he was ind discernible about being in prison in discernible stories, redacted, and do you know anything about him like being placed on suicide watch and taking off, do you know anything, Epstein, yeah, he was placed on suicide watch and he was taken off, exactly the reasons I don't know, they never told me, redacted, do you know if anyone from outside such as his attorneys or anybody like that, called anyone to ask him to be taken off suicide watch, Epstein, only what the paper said, so I don't have any first hand knowledge of it, redacted, and you've never gotten to speak with his attorneys, they never disclosed the information, Epstein not very much, no question, okay, so just the papers, other than having that conversation with ind discernible, have you spoken with anyone on the outside, Epstein, no question, right, Epstein, oh, so David

shone, the attorney who was going to go ask me because he also said that ind discernible suicide, yeah, I was surprised because he felt, he said Jeff felt positive about the defense they were going to go with, you know, in the prosecution, redacted and David shone met them on Friday, Epstein, excuse me, redacted, you mentioned David shone met with him on Friday, Epstein, no, no, no, no, David shone, had met with him in jail, I think, before he died, not the day, I think it was before, redacted, you mentioned something about a non-prosecution from Florida, can you explain that? Epstein, yeah, in 2006, I think it was, when he first got in trouble in Florida, you know, when he got back whatever, he got his sweetheart deal, which I was told, he got a sweetheart deal because the girls that were planning to be victims were actually determined to be very unreliable witnesses, because they found their Facebook pages with drugs and sex. And one of the girls was a prostitute and a mother, you know, all kinds of, these are not clean cut little Catholic school girls,

you know, so he got made the deal back in 2006, and part of the deal was he had to sign the prosecution agreement for him and the other unnamed individuals. And that's what he was living on ever since, you know, just there was this note from what I understand, I haven't seen any evidence that he was with underage women at that point in time, like get out of jail, and then you know, 13 months, never see that, he got a house, you know, he got a good deal. After that, I mean, we used to do, there's a joke, you know, and I told him, you know, I'm his brother and said some passport scare him. So a girl comes in, wants to show him that she's in the estate team, you know, we're joking around. So and as far as I know, there have been no claims of him being with underage women and all the stuff that he will, I don't think it, it's the case, but yes, redacted, you mentioned the non-prossecution agreement as the fact that he believed he was getting out of prison. Epstein, no, no, he got out of prison. He served his time and he was sentenced to, but at the time, and this is public, he had a non-prossecution agreement

with the federal government, you know, the same one that was with the Southern District or whatever, what Florida Park, or I don't know, they're like the Lingo, I don't get in trouble. So I'm not up on the ind discernible. As far as I know, this one is federal government, Epstein, and if you make a deal in the non-prossecution agreement with the federal government, well, that's the federal government. It's not like the New York people, federal here, have the right to ind discernible Greenland. Epstein, so was it? Why was it your SD? You know, another theory about that? Okay, is that in the screen before he was arrested, one of the victims went to the FBI and said that she was in his house. It was down on first street and he had this expensive camera system and boom, boom, boom, now go to the bathroom, all this kinds of stuff. Now, the one thing about Jeffrey is that Jeffrey was a bullshitter. He would say things just to be provocative. Now, he had an extensive video room when we first walked into the house on the right because I was there years

ago, with lots of monitors, but they were all on the outside of the building for security and inside the front door and inside the back door. There wasn't cameras throughout the house and I've spoken with people who knew the house, people who worked at the house, and they like said that extensive video system that house didn't exist, but the FBI got this information that it did. And then a few months later, he gets arrested and they break into his house with a search warrant and I would like to see that search warrant. That is what? Because in the search warrant, you have to state what you're looking for, right? You can't just use it as a fishing trip. So what is it that they were looking for? Because they broke into his house and they cut the safe open, but you heard that he had about 70,000 in cash and diamonds. Well, he's a very wealthy man. Drew McIntyre here from WWE.

He does not have cash and diamonds, you know, and he had some expired old passport for some indecernable long story for that. But what were they looking for? Who was indecernable to get into this house to look for? Who were they looking for? And are they looking for the tapes of somebody on the street? They had some tapes. They're not exist, which didn't exist. And then he was arrested and you know, it's cool. And like I said, he set you up as a crook. I said he has enough word on both gang weights to have the election canceled in 2006. This doesn't alleviate. If you forget everything else, everything I showed you here and everything you know now, would you just say yes, it was a suicide. I wouldn't. And not because like I said, not because I'm his brother. It just doesn't add up to a suicide. Like I said, and trust me, if he committed suicide

my life would have been a lot easier this time. I've had death threats. I've been in touch with the FBI and NYPD for those two years. And I have hired armed guards for that. When I met with Steve Bannon, after I saw the tape that my brother sent to me after his death, I contacted Steve Bannon and I'm indesernable. What's this about? You know, and I know that Bannon, I actually had a indesernable. I didn't because I didn't know who was indesernable. I knew I'm walking to a hotel and be talking, taking out the garbage like show, you know, and armed guards and Bannon told me about the 16 hours of tape. And he told me he said that the tape should protect him. And that the attorney client privilege as witness preparation. But Bannon is not an attorney, redacted and which tapes we're talking about right now. Epstein, the 16 hours of videotape, interview that indesernable with my brother, redacted off of what we've talked about, at least as far, who do you think we should speak with?

That would have the first hand knowledge that would be willing to speak with us. Epstein, well, I think you should talk to the guards, the EMT guards, and I think it's redacted or something redacted. Those are the two EMT guards. Epstein, find out from them who was directing the operation in the prison. Why did they move the body out when they weren't supposed to move the body out? Who was directing them to do that? Who was there? Redacted, okay, Epstein. And then in the hospital, when he was there, I mean, I don't know, do the fire department guys wear body cameras? EMTs? I don't know, you know, but in, like I said, there was a handful of cameras in the hospital. When they took them, there were four people there, two EMTs and two other people, and someone would have had a video camera of that. And why did they dress them in a hospital gown? Redacted, okay, Epstein, you know, why are they trying to make them look like? Bannon told me there is a prison culture here, nobody dies in prison. You know, they find a dead body, they ship them to the hospital, and

it's declared dead in the hospital. That's traditional in the prison system because they don't want to deal with the dead body in prison. And that seems to be indecernable as well. But what are they trying to, you know, to take them out, trying to innovate them? These guys are trained. Yeah, now they know he's not coming back. Redacted, yeah, Epstein. So why the shirad? And why are we in here? There was a camera guy there, right? Who took the photographs? You got people questioning. How did he know to be there? Why was he there? By the prison early that morning to take photographs and indecernable no doubt. Redacted, which camera guy are you talking about? Richmond, the guy that had indecernable poster, Epstein, yeah, I knew his name. Redacted, I believe it was redacted. He was at the hospital or he was at the prison Epstein at the prison. Redacted, okay, redacted when Mr. Epstein was being rolled out. Epstein, yeah, he's on the gurney and he's covered in a sheet. They have a neck

brace on him. He's innovated. They have a thing down his throat. And that's squeezing one of those, the ableoons to try to get air into his lungs. Yeah, which use on like drowning victims and indecernable. So I was like, why, you know, why the shirad? And also from the time they got there, they took him down. There's no pulse. Obviously he's not breathing. You know, the body can only last a few minutes under that condition. They got up there. He was found dead and you know, they do whatever they do in there. They cut him open. They tried to defibrillate him, right? Because that's the thing on the other picture. The defibrillator angle. And there's electric cord in the room because he slept with the CPAP machine, which I didn't know he used one, but turns out he did. And he was in the room with his electric cord, you know, and in the photographs, let me see if I can find this photo here, redacted. Why are you looking that up? I know you might have answered this. Did you have any communication with them? When he was in prison, Epstein, no, redacted. Did he email you

or call you? Epstein, no, redacted anything like that. Epstein, nope, redacted. What about any other family? Redacted, as redacted said, did he contact anybody? Epstein, no, there's no one in the family. Redacted. So you don't know anybody aside from his attorneys who spoke to indiscernible on a night or spoke indiscernible. Epstein, no, redacted. He spoke with you. Epstein, I sent him a letter in prison. I have no idea if you ever got it. Redacted in terms of other siblings. You were his only sibling? Epstein, yeah. Redacted the parents Epstein deceased. Epstein, my father died in 91, 30 years ago and my mother died in 2004. Epstein, 2004. Yeah, they were older. It was right around when Jeff first got in trouble in 2006. He called me and asked me if I'm at his house, which is, you know, like after my mother died, I moved back because most of our communication, it seems Jeff was rather indiscernible, health issues, and being close to the family. Like he

called me to his house because he wanted to tell me himself that he was getting in trouble, you know, for indiscernible. And the first thing I said to him, I said, well, indiscernible, mom's dead. It's looking like they're about to kill her indiscernible some issues. So redacted. How long did you take care? So you said that you had ghosted a large part of indiscernible and how much do you indiscernible? Epstein, you can hold whatever his bell was. Redacted and cut off Epstein, well, his bell, his bell itself was 100 plus million. Somewhere in that, I don't know the exact number, but whatever it was, I paid them. Redacted. Yeah, okay. All right, folks, we're going to wrap up right here. And in the next episode, we're going to pick up where we left off.
