“Among the 3.5M pages released by DOJ, Epstein's official death statement was dated August 9 — one day before he was found dead on August 10. Someone filed the paperwork before the body was discovered.”
The paperwork says August 9. The body was found August 10. That's not a typo — it's a timestamp on a federal document that puts the official death report before the official discovery of the body.
Buried in the DOJ's 3.5-million-page Epstein file release, investigators found the official death statement for Jeffrey Epstein. The date on the document: August 9, 2019. The date Epstein was officially found dead in his cell: August 10, 2019.
Either someone at the Metropolitan Correctional Center knew Epstein was dead before his body was "discovered," or the paperwork was pre-prepared for an event that hadn't happened yet. Neither explanation is consistent with a spontaneous suicide that caught everyone off guard.
The guards who were supposed to check on Epstein every 30 minutes were both asleep — or so the story goes. The cameras that covered his cell "malfunctioned." And now we know the death paperwork was filed early. Each revelation individually might be an error. Together, they form a pattern that only points in one direction.
A pre-dated death statement in a federal facility is not a clerical error. It's evidence. Evidence that someone in the system knew what was going to happen to Jeffrey Epstein before it officially did.
