Mark Epstein Challenges Official Story in OIG Interview on Epstein’s Death (Part 2) (3/5/26)

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.

What's up everyone and welcome to another episode of the Epstein Chronicles. In this episode we're going to get right back to that explosive interview that Mark Epstein gave to the OIG investigators, Mr. Richman and discernible. Mark Epstein, that's his neck all right? If I strangle you, now that number one does not look like a sheet, it looks more like an electric cord because he had a CPAP machine in his room with an electric cord. Question, okay, Epstein, that does not look like a sheet, plus if he had a sheet around his neck, it would be discolored from the secretions from his skin, okay? Now if I strangle you, metaphorically, with an electric ind discernible, you won't get a groove in your neck because your internal self-pressure will flatten your skin back out, like you might get a little abrasion mark or rub mark, but you won't get a groove stuck in your neck. That takes at least two hours. That's how he know he was dead for at least two hours because of that, okay?

That's uncontroverted. Richman, it's not consistent with what you thought was demonstrated as the news, and that comment was made by Richman. Redacted right. Richman, evidence with ind discernible, Epstein, he could have been for six hours, but a minimum of two. That's Dr. Bodden, you know, opinion, which I take is more of ind discernible as opposed to it. That's not a sheet. That looks more like an electric cord. Also you see these marks above the groove line. Redacted, okay, Epstein, if you hang yourself and you put something around your neck and you hang yourself, okay, it's going to slip up. It's going to go high on your neck. If anything, the skin below the mark is going to be abraded or roughed up because the news is don't ind discernible. You're not going to get marks above your news. It won't go down. Your neck won't mark above the news. The news line or whatever, the ligature, whatever was used, you know, where these marks

above the line, that means also if you hang yourself, that line goes up. It goes through your ears. You strangle with a garot. That's more straight back. I mean, the line goes all the way back and that's what to expect, okay? So here's the closer look, the better look. That's not the news. It's not a sheet doing that. That's being abraded from that. Also his eyes. I'm going to have pictures of it when you strangle, you know, the little blood vessels in your eyes burst, rich men ind discernible, Epstein, the tipia, whatever, and it's exhibited here. Also he has a cut on his arm here, you know, so you can see the groove is in there. That groove is not coming out. What number is that? That may be the list. Hold on. Let's reboot. Redacted. You mentioned that you heard from somebody that they had in your time at the hospital. Who did you hear that from? Mr. Epstein, do you have a specific name? Epstein?

No. Okay. There is the ind discernible. Where is the little ind discernible? Because there's a cut on his lip here. Look at that. There's a bruise on the back of his neck here. Oh, there's another question I had before I forget is in the paperwork. The last guards to see him was tovenoel and ind discernible. You see here, it's just like a little ind discernible. Another thing you should be investigating assuming he was killed is redacted. Because I was also told this was through somebody who ind discernible through the attorney because somebody was underwater. He said that somebody was ind discernible. So you know, there is an old saying that anyone can commit murder, but it takes an artist to commit suicide. If this was done, somebody who was put on that ind discernible to do this, somebody was ind discernible. He was killed, you know, back to his cell, anyone else after the fact of time have been transferred off. Because if someone was ind discernible to do this, I don't know if he's lost ind discernible.

Find out who was on that cord. You know, that was two weeks practically redacted who told you that someone was ind discernible. Epstein, a journalist ind discernible. He lied redacted. Now that is something we would very much like the follow up on. Was there any, can you talk to someone about how that would discernible or not? Epstein, I will ask if I can get you the ind discernible redacted, okay? Epstein, I've also heard that there's like 20 plus guards that were like there for a low that haven't worked since ind discernible redacted. That's the same news on the floor. Epstein, yes. Epstein, yeah, that's not cut. It's kind of ind discernible. And it's not, you know, I mean, it's pretty standard sizes, I believe. And this would be discolored from the secretions of his neck. Things I will also tell you is that in the 2016 election, my brother didn't tell me why

ind discernible. What he told me is he said that he knew about ind discernible Trump ind discernible because they would have to cancel the election. My brother is also ind discernible. He's worked with Steve Bannon, who's worked with ind discernible. Steve Bannon has hours of videotape. I know this because my brother said he worked with him. And on that day, he said he stopped hanging out with Trump when he realized ind discernible. In papers, they're reading he stopped hanging out with Trump. And like he fell apart, it was bullshit. Everybody was like ind discernible. He stopped hanging out with Trump when he realized Trump was a dick. That's exactly what he said. And I think ind discernible, all right. And I don't have any proof. But if this was murder, then the government would probably ind discernible. And I know also that hurting somebody else in a federal prison that the DE agent transported to a maximum security. He's a real badass and carried on and felt even worse. You know, he was brought out to be ind discernible. They handcuffed him before they uncuff him.

And he was a DE agent who was getting the credibility as a criminal as a bad guy. A troublemaker. So it's justice from you can put people in prison that have ind discernible. I was told that by somebody. So yeah, so also the thing I wanted to show you here, the reason I honestly, to be honest with you, I think Trump is behind it. If someone was closer on the inside, told me Trump ind discernible after his death, you know, someone who knows more about this shit than I do, redacted, well, when you say that Trump was a crook, or that your brother said that ind discernible, can you give me more information other than just that? Mr. Epstein, no, he didn't tell me that, but if you were a legal businessman, you would know that Trump is a crook. Everybody knows Trump's a crook. That's why no legitimate real estate people would deal with them, redacted, and when you say crook though, can you just kind of explain that? Epstein, he robs people. He probably close to the wealth he has comes from the money he didn't pay people. He screwed over and over and over.

And he pays them like a percentage of what he owes them. They sign non-disclosure agreements. That's how he slides and everybody knows that question. All right. Epstein, now this video from before my brother's death ind discernible, but wait, I'm going to get to the beginning of the part. Ms. Richmond, some of the information about this is also ind discernible when you're talking about ind discernible. Epstein, well, let me see if I can, oh, he asked them, all right. So this is before he died, redacted. So we're looking at Mr. Epstein, I've met Trump, redacted president Trump there as well as the news reporter, Mr. Epstein, or Riley, Bill O'Reilly, question, do you know when that was done? Mr. Epstein, it was prior to his death. That was question prior to the death Epstein, but you know, I mean, personally, I think Trump was jealous that people ind discernible and wanted to take that power. Ind discernible to Trump, ind discernible, you know, Richmond, I noticed that not your strongest argument, Epstein, no, it's not my strongest argument.

It's that's an opinion, okay, but this is my strongest argument redacted. So when's the last time you spoke with Jeffrey Epstein the Thursday night before he was arrested redacted. Do you remember around when that date would have been Epstein? Yeah, July 8th or 9th or something redacted, okay, Epstein on a Thursday night redacted. So 2019, Epstein, yeah, yeah, it was right before his death. So he called me, if he was in Paris, he called me just usual, you know, ind discernible, you know, and then the next day, he, you know, flew back and he was arrested that Friday, Saturday morning. His attorneys called me and told me he was arrested redacted and how often would you talk with Jeffrey up until then? Epstein, we would talk every couple of weeks or something like that a week, a month, you know, we emailed something, whatever, you know, just trying. And I keep telling him what's hanging with the family stuff and we ind discernible stories. He used to hang out with Billy Idol though, so he would tell me funny things that we had on set.

I guess Billy Idol is a funny guy. You know, we just used to keep check redacted. I don't know where we heard this information from, but I was told I was informed that you were a strange for like a number of years. Is that correct? Epstein, no question. You hadn't seen him. Epstein, I haven't seen him. Question, okay, Epstein, my mother died in 2004. Since that time, maybe I saw him a handful of times and the last time was seven years prior to his death. Question, okay, so you hadn't seen him for seven years. Epstein, yeah. Question, but you spoke over the telephone a number of times a week. Yeah, an emailed. Question, okay, an email, Epstein, yeah. It's like, for instance, I mean, I have the email exchange. And when he sent me the video clip that back in discernible, you know, and I asked him, you know, what's this for? You know, when he said in discernible testimony, I said you were subpoenaed, redacted, uh-huh, Epstein, he said no. He was just, he was doing stuff. And you know, he just, he said, I thought in discernible, he thought I would find it funny.

I remember it was like he was had a beer in the video and I've never seen my brother with a beer before. So I wrote back. I said, the funniest part is you were with a beer and he wrote back. He said that you could tell who I was. My disguise didn't work. You know, it was just, it was just banter between brothers. So that was the last time I spoke with him was at Thursday night before he was ind discernible. Redacted. Okay. Do you know anything about his state of mind leading up to he gets cut off by Epstein? Yeah. I know who he spoke to the day before he died. Redacted. And who did he speak to? He spoke to someone who was close to him. I mean, and they had ind discernible, not a clue ind discernible that this happened. And most of his, one of his attorneys gave an ind discernible was publicly saying that he spoke to Jeffrey, Jeffrey was very upbeat. He was also thought that he had good taste using ind discernible non prosecution agreement. He had from Florida from years back. So and also when Jeffrey was first arrested, his attorneys call me and ask me if I would

back and help him with his bell. They said it's ind discernible. Other people ind discernible participate in the bell because they should ind discernible. And then Jeffrey was not going to flee. He wasn't fleeing ind discernible, not that he would do that anyhow because he ind discernible. And that's what put me on the map. Most people didn't even know Jeff had a brother. Redacted. Okay. Epstein. We had a social life together. And so that's where my head dating back, you know, referred to as ind discernible proctologist every journalist on the planet would ind discernible to try and find some dirt on me to try to make me tell this kind of stuff. But yeah, we had two separate lives. And so Bell was denied. And then he had a bell hearing coming up two days after he died. And this time, and he was pretty up like, you know, his jets, the house, those hundred million dollars worth of stuff for the bell. The highest bell in the United States ever was one hundred million dollars. So ind discernible. So that's the highest bell they ruled on.

When they were going through the appeal on the bell, his attorneys called me up. And they asked me if I would guarantee his entire bell. And it has since doubled. And I agreed to it. Question. Okay. Epstein. And so there might have been a chance he got bell in two days, Richmond, right? Epstein. And then he would have been under house arrest. He would have paid four guards. They would have had an ankle monitor, camera, whatever it would take to do this all. So if you and I think, you know, if he was going to take himself out, wait two fucking days, you know, if you get bell, then you at least are home for a year before the trial comes up. If nothing else ind discernible doesn't make sense. Epstein, if Jeffrey went, I don't think Jeffrey would do that. Redacted. So you did actually agree to the bell, Epstein, yeah. Redacted. And that was two days after he was found. Epstein. Richmond, that's the day Epstein, the hearing was supposed to be. That's right. He gets interrupted.

And I agreed before he was dead, but the hearing was supposed to take place like he died. I think it was August 9th or something. The hearing was scheduled for like 11th or something. There was like a two day gap redacted. And then do you remember how much of the bell was Epstein close to 100 million redacted. It was close to 100 Epstein. Yeah. Redacted still just a clarify. You mentioned a hundred million dollar bell and you're guarantee on top of it. So that was technically 200 million Mr. Epstein right and his friend David Mitchell put up some. I don't know how much David put up, but he also in the initial pool at first ind discernible house in Florida. David also put up some ind discernible. David Mitchell is the one who the friend and I heard he was reaching, you know, ind discernible. All right, folks. We're going to wrap up this episode right here. And then the next episode dealing with the topic. We're going to pick up where we left off all the information that goes with this episode can be found in the description box in the description box.
