1 *00:01:46)
2 MR. : Yeah. Can we verify?
3 MR. EPSTEIN: Sure.
4 MR. : Or you can just ask your
5 birthday, date of birth.
6 MR. ..eah.
7 MR. : It's one or the other.
8 MR. EPSTEIN: Oh, it's only my driver's
9 license.
10 MR. : Mr. Mark Epstein has shown me
11 a photo, driver's license, and it has his
12 picture on it, and it states his name on it.
13 Just for the record, here is my credentials.
14 MR. EPSTEIN: Okay.
15 MR. : I'm a Special Agent
16 with the DOJ/OIG.
17 MR. EPSTEIN: Okay.
18 MR. : And these are my
19 credentials. Senior Special Agent --
20 MR. EPSTEIN: Okay.
21 MR.
22 You can go now.
23 MR. : Go ahead.
24 MR. EPSTEIN: Okay. As I mentioned
25 before, before you came, I told them that, when 1 I first heard of Jeffrey's death, I just
2 assumed that it was a suicide, because it was
3 reported as such, and that time, I had no
4 reason to doubt it. And I just respected his
5 decision to take himself out. But then, as
6 things progressed, and when more information
7 came out, it looks like, if you just looked at
8 the information, there's no way in the world
9 you would say it was a suicide. The first
10 thing being the autopsy. The autopsy was
11 conducted the next day. It was conducted by
12 the city pathologist. And I was right, I was
13 able to iiiiiiiathologist to witness this, and
14 had Dr. Barton (Phonetic Sp.
15 *00:03:00). I don't know if you know Dr.
16 Barton, biiiiiiican't get a --
17 MS. : He's the former Chief
18 Medical Examiner of the city of New York.
19 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah.
20 MS. : So, he went back to his
21 office because he was hired by Mark to review,
22 and be present, at the autopsy.
23 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. Normally, if I hire a
24 forensic pathologist to review the autopsy, he
25 has the right to just stand there and watch.
8
1 MS. : Just to clarify. We found
2 out, through the media, they were going to make
3 that change. So, we called the Medical
4 Examiner's Office, asking how come you haven't
5 notified the family, and what is the central
6 reason for changing this? We interviewed them
7 for about, hmm, an hour. And we discovered
8 that they really didn't have much of a basis.
9 But everybody was just closing the
10 investigation. And when I persisted, is when I
11 learned the camera on the floor, where Mr.
12 Epstein's cell was, had been corrupted. And no
13 one had actually viewed that camera.
14 MR. EPSTEIN: Now, one of the questions
15 about the camera on the tier, I don't know,
16 there's some pictures of, you know, we're
17 walking through the tier, and (Indiscernible
18 *00:05:08) all the cameras, right? That camera
19 wasn't working. So, one of the questions I
20 have is, when did that camera stop working?
21 When was the last time that camera actually
22 took a picture, you know, and have they
23 determined why that camera wasn't working?
24 Were the wires cut?
25 Was it unplugged, or, you know, why was 7
1 And then, we can get the body, afterwards, to
2 do a second autopsy, if needed. But because of
3 who Barton is, they did whatever he requested
4 them to do with the autopsy. So, there was no
5 need for a second autopsy. Barton, also, has
6 been on the Special Commission, investigating
7 prison deaths, since the Attica riots in 1970.
8 So, he's been doing this for a long time.
9 There's no better authority in prison
10 deaths than Barton. And the city
11 pathologist came out with Dr. Barton, and her
12 determination was, she could not call this a
13 suicide. There was too many questionable
14 things, you know, like the broken bones in his
15 neck. And Barton confirmed that, he also,
16 could not to call this a suicide. It was much
17 more like a homicide. Plus, there were other
18 wounds on his body. I'm, like, I have pictures
19 I could show you. And then, when we got the
20 death certificate, you need the death
21 certificate in order to recover his body, the
22 cause of death was pending. You know, pending
23 for an investigation. And then, a few days
24 later, the Chief Medical Examiner of New York
25 declares it a suicide.
EFTA00113461
9
1 that camera not working? There is an answer to
2 that. You know, and I am going to get it. I
3 had, I could start showing some pictures, but
4 to keep going on, you know, they did, they
5 swabbed - under autopsy report - they swabbed
6 his fingers for DNA evidence, in case somebody
7 was there. Was that ever checked? I never saw
8 the results of that DNA testing. You know,
9 nothing has been (Indiscernible *00:05:50) for
10 that.
11 And one of the things that lit up my mind
12 on top of this, one of the big things is that,
13 Attorney General Barr made a statement, saying
14 that he viewed the camera that was outside of
15 the tier, that showed the door, and the guards,
16 as that's directly right between, that the
17 guards were just, you know, jerking off, or
18 (Indiscernible *00:06:09) web, or whatever they
19 were doing. And he saw that video tape, and he
20 said that, he said that nobody went - that he
21 personally saw it, which I thought was strange.
22 You know, that nobody went in or out of the
23 tier.
24 So, that convinced them it was a suicide.
25 You guys are professional investigators. I am 10
1 not. But for me, the lights went off, I said,
2 either this is the stupidest guy on the planet,
3 or, if Jeffrey was killed, the killer was
4 already on the tier. So, it's just things that
5 might be come into the tier to kill him, I
6 mean, there's too many witnesses, how do you
7 get somebody in or out? But if he was killed,
8 the killer was already on the tier.
9 So, for him to make the statement that no
10 one went in or out, that convinced him it was a
11 suicide. I mean, that's like a, I think we
12 agree, it was like an amateur mistake in the
13 investigations, because there were a number of
14 people inside. Right? Well, let me pull up
15 something to show you.
16 MS. Okay.
17 MR. : On that note, do you have
18 any information that anyone was actually in his
19 cell?
20 MR. EPSTEIN: There was nobody in his
21 cell.
22 MS. : Well, was -.
23 MR. EPSTEIN: There was supposed to be
24 somebody in his cell. Because he was
25 supposedly on suicide watch, doing whatever,
11
1 and he was released, and there was supposed to
2 be somebody in his cell, and there wasn't, and
3 he was taken out. He was alone that night, in
4 his cell. And so, other, like, just
5 evidentiary things, they report that he was
6 found unresponsive in his cell. And then was
7 taken to the hospital. He wasn't found
8 unresponsive. He was found dead. Okay?
9 Jeffrey was dead for a minimum of two hours
10 before they found him. And I will show you how
11 we know that.
12 MS. : Also, talk about the
13 description of the (Indiscernible *00:07:45).
14 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. A
15 whole bunch of things. I got -. I have a list
16 of the number of the photos. I left it at
17 home, unfortunately, but I will pull them up,
18 and have a look.
19 MR. : Now, are you going to
20 show us why you know that he was dead for at
21 least two hours?
22 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. Yeah.
23 MR. : Okay.
24 MR. EPSTEIN: I'm going to get to that
25 picture. As soon as I can. 1

MR. : lust for the recording, I'm
just going to state that Mr. Epstein has his
own laptop, and he is providing us -. He is
just going to explain the pictures to us.
MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah.
MR. : In your custody.
MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. Also, in the autopsy
MS. : And the picture is from the
autopsy.
MR. : From the autopsy.
MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. Yeah. They also
found, you know, three broken bones in his
neck. Which is extremely rare to have one
broken bone, when you do what's called a soft
hanging. You have, like, Robin Williams hung
himself with a bathrobe thing. With the belt
thing. Those are soft hangings. You usually
don't break bones, and he had three breaks.
Which is one of the reasons they thought it was
more like a homicide. If you -.
MR. : So, what we're looking at
is, do you know which bones we're talking
about?
MR. EPSTEIN: It's the hyoid bone.
EFTA00113462
13
1 Something like the hyoid, is what it's called.
2 MR. : And did they ever --
3 MR. EPSTEIN: And it really isn't -.
4 MR. : discuss anything about
5 chest compressions? Would that potentially
6 have happened during CPR?
7 MR. EPSTEIN: No.
8 MS. : No.
9 MR. EPSTEIN: No. This is the neck.
10 MS. : Chest compressions are
11 lower.
12 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. Chest compressions.
13 It can break ribs. Not the higher.
14 MS. : So.
15 MR. EPSTEIN: It felt pretty useful. See,
16 this is the camera that wasn't working.
17 MR. : Right.
18 MR. EPSTEIN: That would show him
19 (Indiscernible *00:09:09).
20 MR. And they provide you with
21 all of this?
22 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah.
23 MR. Okay.
24 MS. (Indiscernible *00:09:24)
25 releases. 14
1 MR. : Really?
2 MS. : Mm-hmm.
3 MR. : (Indiscernible
4 *00:09:28 ?
5 MS. (Indiscernible *00:09:28).
6 MR. Oh, for the statement of
7 information in?
8 MS. That was just released
9 (Indiscernible *00:09:33). And announced by
10 the (Indiscernible *00:09:39).
11 MR. EPSTEIN: Do you get involved with
12 murder investigations? Is that part of the
13 normally? I mean, do you have, like, any
14 forensic experience on that?
15 MR. : So, our investigation
16 pertains to the death of --
17 MR. EPSTEIN: All right.
18 MR. : Jeffrey.
19 (Indiscernible *00:09:59).
20 MR. EPSTEIN: Okay. One thing I'll show
21 you now, before we get to it is that the only
22 way they was trying to say that, well, he put a
23 noose on his neck, and sort of jumped off the
24 top bunk. That would give him that breaks, or
25 it would be harsh. You know, like, if you saw
15
1 the Shawshank Redemption, when Brooks kicked
2 himself off the chair, you know, and fall down.
3 That's (Indiscernible *00:10:23), because it
4 has to be harsh like that. The top bunk in
5 Jeffrey's cell was filled with his medications
6 (Indiscernible *00:10:29). Nobody was on that
7 bunk. Nobody jumped off that bunk. I'm just
8 looking for the neck pictures. Also, let me go
9 back one second. Shit, I apologize for not
10 having that list.
11 MS. : (Indiscernible *00:10:54).
12 MR. EPSTEIN: Uh-huh. Also, what, another
13 question I have is, who was in charge in the
14 prison? Who -? First of all, they moved the
15 body, which you're not supposed to do. And
16 supposedly, they photographed the body, you
17 know, when they find a dead body in prison,
18 they're not supposed to move it. They're
19 supposed to get the Medical Examiner's Office,
20 so they can (Indiscernible *00:11:17) surprise.
21 I mean, no matter how you look at it, he was
22 moved.
23 Now, if you saw the photographs, when they
24 took him out of the hospital, he was on a
25 gurney, and he was intubated. They were trying 16
1 to squeeze the tube with no air in it. It
2 said, he's dead for two hours. Why were they
3 trying to make it look like he was alive?
4 Like, these are -. The EMTs - and I would like
5 to talk to them - it's , and I
6 think it's , them two EMTs. If I
7 recall, they're the EMTs that were actually in
8 the cell.
9 MR. : Okay.
10 MR. EPSTEIN: Now, just, let me go back
11 one second. Here is another picture of the top
12 bunk. You see, nobody was there. So, I would
13 like to talk to those two guys.
14 MR. : Yeah.
15 MR. EPSTEIN: This is the noose. Right?
16 Look at that. When the guards found him, the
17 guy was quoted as saying that he cut him down.
18 And I think the guard said . The
19 guard that found him. He said he cut him down.
20 Yeah. You see the edge of his noose thing?
21 That's a hemmed edge. That wasn't cut. Okay?
22 If this was tied to something, this would be
23 wrinkled. It would be marked from there, you
24 know, like, here, you see, like, creases in
25 this part? There would be something here,
EFTA00113463
17
1 showing that this was tied to something. Okay?
2 Here is another question I have. He was dead
3 when they took him. When they found him. And
4 he was wearing - and I checked through someone
5 who was there, who said that, I guess, what was
6 he wearing in the cell? And he was wearing his
7 orange boxer shorts and t-shirt. The prison
8 clothing.
9 MR. : Okay.
10 MR. EPSTEIN: They take his dead body out.
11 And it was either, they cut the stuff off of
12 him, because I have pictures of the boxer
13 shorts cut. Who dressed the dead body with the
14 hospital gown? Okay. Dead bodies, you cover
15 with a sheet. He wasn't going to run down the
16 hall in the hospital, with his balls flapping
17 in the wind. He didn't have to hide. So, who
18 -? Who -? Now, I know that when they took him
19 to the hospital, there were four people in the
20 room, and somebody had a hand-held video. And,
21 like, and they were working down at the
22 hospital. Where is that tape?
23 MR. : Okay.
24 MR. : How do you know that?
25 MR. EPSTEIN: I was told that. 18
1 MR. : Okay.
2 Mr. EPSTEIN: Also, there's a question of,
3 why was he moved? Because you know, you know
4 what lividit is?
5 MR. : Yes.
6 MR. : Yes.
7 MR. EPSTEIN: You know, you die, you fall
8 on your back, your gut turns purple, because
9 your blood settles.
10 MR. : Okay.
11 MR. EPSTEIN: Nowi___hewasmoved. So, I
12 want to find out from what
13 position was Jeffrey in when he found him? I
14 know the answer to that. Because he was
15 sitting, like, right by Robin Williams, you
16 know, your ass and the back of your legs are
17 going to be broken, you know, if you're leaning
18 forward, doing it that way, the front of your
19 legs are going to be. You know, so, what
20 position was he in? After they found him --
21 MR. : So, you said
22 made statements. Which statements are
23 (Indiscernible *00:14:28)?
24 MR. EPSTEIN: Well, he said he cut him
25 down.

MR. Where did you get that
statement from?
MR. EPSTEIN: It was in the paper.
MS. : It was (Indiscernible
*00:14:31).
MR. EPSTEIN: That was that published.
MR. Like, recently, or was
that --
MR. EPSTEIN: No. No. At the time, at the
time.
MR. They hadn't received the
statements from him back in the day?
MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. He was quoted at the
time, but, you know, he said, I mean, that's
what he said, he would cut him down and said,
you fucked up. Or you messed up. You know,
when the supervisor (Indiscernible *00:14:46),
he said he messed up, he didn't do the checks.
Or somethiii iiiiiiit effect.
MR. : Okay.
MR. EPSTEIN: Okay.
MR. : But not, like, an
official report --
MR. EPSTEIN: I dont --
MR. -- stating that? 20
1 MR. EPSTEIN: -- I don't. They don't show
2 me.
3 MS. (Indiscernible *00:14:57)
4 evidence from that prosecution.
5 MR. • Right, right.
6 MS. That would be (Indiscernible
7 *00:15:00).
8 MR. EPSTEIN: Okay.
9 MS. : (Indiscernible *00:15:03).
10 MR. EPSTEIN: That's his neck. All right?
11 If I strangle you, now that, number one, does
12 not look like a sheet. It looks more like an
13 electric cord, because he had a CPAP machine in
14 this roomjiliIh_g_electric cord.
15 MR. IIIIIIIIII: Okay.
16 MR. EPSTEIN: That does not look like a
17 sheet. Plus, if he had a sheet around his
18 neck, it would be discolored from the
19 secretions from his skin. Okay? Now, if I
20 strangle you, metaphorically, with an electric
21 cord and I let you lie there, okay? You won't
22 get a groove in your neck, because your
23 internal cell pressure will flatten your skin
24 back out. Like, you might get a little
25 abrasion mark, or rub mark, but you won't get a
EFTA00113464
21
1 groove stuck in your neck. That takes at least
2 two hours. That's how we know he was dead for
3 at least two hours, because of that. Okay?
4 That's incontrovertible.
5 MS. : It's not consistent with
6 what you thou ht was demonstrated as the noose.
7 MR. : Right.
8 MR. EPSTEIN: Okay.
9 MS. : (Indiscernible *00:15:52)
10 evidence with (Indiscernible *00:15:53)
11 MR. EPSTEIN: He could have been for six
12 hours. But a minimum of two. That's Dr.
13 Barton's, you know, opinion, which I take is
14 more of (Indiscernible *00:16:04), as opposed
15 to it. That's not a sheet. That looks more
16 like an electric cord. Also, you see these
17 marks above the groove line?
18
19 MR. : Okay.
20 MR. EPSTEIN: If you hang yourself, and
21 you put something around your neck, and you
22 hang yourself, okay, it's going to slip up.
23 It's going to go high on your neck. If
24 anything, the skin below that mark is going to
25 be abraded. Or roughed up. Because the nooses 22
1 don't (Indiscernible *00:16:27). You're not
2 going to get marks above your noose. That's -.
3 It won't go down. Your neck won't mark above
4 the noose. The noose line or whatever, the
5 ligature, whatever was used.
6 You know, where these marks above the
7 line. That means also, if you hang yourself,
8 that line goes up towards your ears. You
9 strangle with a garrote, that's the more
10 straight back. I mean, the line goes all the
11 way back and that's what to expect. Okay? So,
12 here's the closer look. The better look.
13 That's not the noose, it's not a sheet doing
14 that. That's being abraded from that. Also,
15 his eyes. And I'm going to have pictures of
16 it. When you strangle, you know, the little
17 blood vessels in your eyes burst. The --
18 MS. : (Indiscernible *00:17:33).
19 MR. EPSTEIN: -- the tibia, whatever, and
20 it's exhibited here. Also, he has a cut on his
21 arm here. You know, so, you can see the groove
22 is in there. That groove is not coming out.
23 What number is that? That may be the list.
24 Hold on. Let's reboot.
25 MR. : When did you last - quick
23
1 question, you mentioned that you heard from
2 somebody that they had a handheld video camera
3 in the hospital. Who did you hear that from?
4 MR. EPSTEIN: Somebody over there.
5 MR. : Do you have a specific name?
6 MR. EPSTEIN: No. Okay. This is the
7 stuff. Where is the little blood vessels
8 broken, because there's a cut on his lip here.
9 Look at that. There's a bruise on the back of
10 his neck here. Oh, there's another question I
11 had before I forget, is in the paperwork, the
12 last guards to see him was Tova Noel and
13 there's an unnamed guard number one and an
14 unnamed guard number two (Indiscernible
15 *00:19:43). You see here, it's like as if
16 there's ligature. This is the autopsy.
17 Another thing you should be investigating,
18 assuming he was killed, is who's on the ward;
19 who are the prisoners on the ward? Because I
20 was also told, and this was through somebody
21 who has been reliable, through an attorney of
22 somebody who was on the ward, he said that cell
23 door (Indiscernible *00:21:47). So, you know,
24 there is an old saying that anyone can commit
25 murder, but it takes an artist to commit 24
1 suicide. If this was done, somebody who was
2 put on that ward to do this. The cell doors
3 are electronically locked. He was killed, went
4 back to his cell, and what I also heard is
5 after the fact, a lot of prisoners are
6 transferred off (Indiscernible *00:22:18). So
7 someone was planted there to do this. I don't
8 know if he's lost (Indiscernible *00:22:23),
9 find out who was on that ward, you know, that
10 was two weeks ractically.
11 MR. : Who told you that someone
12 was (Indiscernible *00:22:29)?
13 MR. EPSTEIN: A journalist.
14 (Indiscernible *00:22:29). He lied.
15 MR. : Ah. Now, that is
16 something we would very much like to follow up
17 on (Indiscernible *00:22:41)? Was there any -?
18 Can you talk to someone about how that would
19 (Indiscernible *00:22:44), or not?
20 MR. EPSTEIN: I will ask, if I can get you
21 the (Indiscernible *00:22:48).
22 MR. MIE: Okay.
23 MS. : (Indiscernible *00:22:52) it
24 was there at night. (Indiscernible *00:23:11).
25 MR. EPSTEIN: I've also heard that
EFTA00113465
28
1 there's, like, 20 plus guards that were, like,
2 there that, furlough, that haven't worked
3 since. Indiscernible *00:23:24).
4 MR. : That's the same noose on the
5 floor?
6 MR. EPSTEIN: Yes.
7 MS. : Absolutely.
8 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah.
9 MS. : (Indiscernible *00:23:35).
10 Back to the tier.
11 MR. : Okay.
12 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. That's -. Yeah.
13 Yeah. That's not cut. It's kind of
14 (Indiscernible *00:23:45). And it's not, you
15 know, I mean, it's pretty standard sizes, I
16 believe. And this would be discolored from the
17 secretions of his neck, (Indiscernible
18 *00:23:54). Things I will also tell you is
19 that, in 2016 election, my brother didn't tell
20 me why he (Indiscernible *00:24:08). What he
21 told me is he said what he knew about
22 (Indiscernible *00:24:10), Trump (Indiscernible
23 *00:24:13), because they would have to cancel
24 the election.
25 My brother is also (Indiscernible 26
1 *00:24:19). He's worked with Steve Bannon,
2 who's worked with (Indiscernible *00:24:19).
3 Steve Bannon has 16 hours of video tape.
4 (Indiscernible *00:24:27). I know this because
5 my brother said he worked with him. And on
6 that day, he said he stopped hanging out with
7 Trump, when he realized (Indiscernible
8 *00:24:37). In the papers, they're reading he
9 stopped hanging out with Trump, and, like, he
10 fell apart (Indiscernible *00:24:39). It was
11 bullshit. Everybody was, like, (Indiscernible
12 *00:24:44). He stopped hanging out with Trump
13 when he realized Trump was a dick. That's
14 exactly what he said. And I think
15 (Indiscernible *00:24:57). All right. And I
16 don't have any proof, but if this was a murder,
17 then the government would probably
18 (Indiscernible *00:25:05). And I Know, also,
19 that hurting somebody else in a federal prison,
20 that the DEA agent transported to a maximum
21 security. He's a real bad ass and carried on,
22 and felt even worse. You know, he was brought
23 out to be (Indiscernible *00:25:21). They
24 handcuffed him before they uncuff him, and he
25 was a DEA agent who was getting the credibility
27
1 as a criminal, as a bad guy. A troublemaker.
2 (Indiscernible *00:25:30). So, it's justice
3 from, you can put people in prison that have
4 (Indiscernible *00:25:34).
5 MR. : Okay.
6 MR. EPSTEIN: That's (Indiscernible
7 *00:25:35). I was told that by somebody. So,
8 yeah. So, also, the thing I wanted to show you
9 here, the reason I - honestly, to be honest
10 with you - I think Trump is behind it. If
11 someone was closer on the inside told me Trump
12 (Indiscernible *00:25:53), after his death, you
13 know, someone who knows more about this shit
14 than I do.
15 MR. : Well, when you say that
16 Trump was a crook, or that your brother said
17 that he (Indiscernible *00:26:00), can you give
18 more information other than just that?
19 MR. EPSTEIN: No. He didn't tell me that,
20 but if you were a legal busines man, you would
21 know that Trump is a crook. Everybody knows
22 trump is a crook. That's why no legitimate
23 real estaiiiiiiiiiiwould deal with him.
24 MR. : And when you say,
25 "Crook," though, can you just kind of - 28
1 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. He --
2 MR. : -- explain that.
3 MR. EPSTEIN: -- he robs people. He
4 probably close to the wealth he has comes from
5 the money he didn't pay people. He screwed
6 over, over and over again. And he gets - pays
7 them, like, a percentage of what he owes them,
8 they sign non-disclosure agreements. That's
9 how he slides. And everybody knew that. Yeah.
10 MR. : All right.
11 (VIDEO PLAYS)
12 MR. EPSTEIN: Now, this video was from
13 before my brother's death. (Indiscernible
14 *00:26:49). But wait, I'm going to get to the
15 beginning of the part.
16 MS. : Some of the information
17 about that is also in that book that just came
18 out(Indiscernible *00:27:03), when you were
19 talking about (Indiscernible *00:27:08).
20 MR. EPSTEIN: Well, let me see if I can
21 (Indiscernible *00:27:12). Oh, he asked them
22 (Indiscernible *00:27:17). All right. So,
23 this is before he died.
24 MR. : So, we're looking at --
25 MR. EPSTEIN: I've met Trump.
EFTA00113466
1 MR. •
2 as well as a
3 MR. EPSTEIN:
4 MR.
5 MR. EPSTEIN:
6 MR.
7 done?
8 MR. EPSTEIN:
9 That was. 29
-- President Trump there,
news reporter.
O'Reilly. Bill O'Reilly.
Bill O'Reilly.
(Indiscernible *00:27:54).
Do you know when that was
It was prior to the death.
10 MR. Prior to the death.
11 MR. EPSTEIN: But, you know, I mean,
12 personally, I think Trump was jealous that
13 people (Indiscernible *00:28:06), and wanted to
14 take that power. That's the kind of person
15 Trump is. (Indiscernible *00:28:14). You
16 know?
17 MS. : I noticed that's not your
18 strongest argument.
19 MR. EPSTEIN: No. It's not my strongest
20 argument. It's, that's an opinion. Okay? But
21 this ism strop est argument.
22 MR. : So, when is the last time
23 you spoke with Jeffrey?
24 MR. EPSTEIN: The Thursday night before he
25 was arrested. 30
1 MR. DO you remember around
2 when that date would have been?
3 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. July 8th and 9th or
4 something.
5 MR. : Okay.
6 MR. EPSTEIN: On a Thursday night.
7 MR. : So, 2019?
8 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. Yeah. It was right
9 before his death. So, he called me if he was
10 in Paris. He called me, just the usual, you
11 know, (Indiscernible *00:28:41). You know?
12 And then, the next day, he, you know, flew
13 back. And he was arrested that Friday.
14 (Indiscernible *00:28:50). Saturday morning,
15 his attorneys called me and told me he was
16 arrested.
17 MR. : And how often would you
18 talk with Jeffrey up until then?
19 MR. EPSTEIN: We would talk every couple
20 of weeks, or something like that. A week. A
21 month. That, you know, we emailed something.
22 Whatever. You know? Just keep trying, and I
23 keep telling him what's happening with the
24 family stuff, and he would tell me funny
25 stories. When - he used to hang out with Woody
31
1 Allen, though. So, he would tell me funny
2 things that Woody Allen said. I guess Woody
3 Allen is
4 MR. : So --
5 MR. EPSTEIN: You know, we just amuse
6 other. Just kee check.
7 MR. : I don't know where we
8 heard this information from, but I was told, I
9 was informed that you were estranged for, like,
10 a number of years. Is that not correct?
11 MR. EPSTEIN: No. No.
12 MS. : You hadn't seen him.
13 MR. EPSTEIN: I haven't seen him.
14 MR. : Okay.
15 MR. EPSTEIN: My mother died in 2004. Or
16 - yeah -. 2004. Since that time, maybe I saw
17 him a handful of times. And the last time was
18 seven years rior to his death.
19 MR. : Okay. SO, you hadn't
20 seen him for seven years --
21 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah.
22 MR. : -- but you spoke over the
23 telephone a number of few weeks?
24 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah, yeah. And emailed.
25 Yeah. Yeah. 32
1 MR. Okay. And email?
2 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. It's, like, for
3 instance, I mean, I have the email exchange,
4 and when he sent me the video clip, that Bannon
5 had sent him (Indiscernible *00:29:52), you
6 know? And I asked him, you know, what was this
7 for. You know, and he said the (Indiscernible
8 *00:30:00) testimony. I said, you were
9 subpoenaed?
10 MR. : Mm-hmm.
11 MR. EPSTEIN: He said, no. (Indiscernible
12 *00:30:03). He was just, he was doing stuff.
13 And, you know, he just, he said he, I thought
14 (Indiscernible *00:30:09), he thought I would
15 find it funny. I remember, it was, like, he
16 was had a beer in the video, and I've never
17 seen my brother with a beard before. So, I
18 wrote back. I said, the funniest part is, you
19 were with a beard. And he wrote back and he
20 said, that you could tell who I was? My
21 disguise didn't work? You know, it was just,
22 it was just banter between two brothers.
23 (Indiscernible *00:30:26).
24 MR. : So -.
25 MR. EPSTEIN: So, that was the last time I

spoke to him, was that Thursday night before he
was (Indiscernible *00:30:32).
MR. : Okay. Do you know
anything about his state of mind leading up to
MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. I know who he spoke
to the daiiiiiiiiiie died.
MR. : And who did he speak
with?
MR. EPSTEIN: He spoke to someone who was
close to him. I mean, and they had
(Indiscernible *00:30:45). Not a clue they
were very surprised that this happened. And
most of his, one of the attorneys gave a
(Indiscernible *00:30:50) was publicly saying
that he spoke to Jeffrey, Jeffrey was very
upbeat. He also thought he had a good case,
using (Indiscernible *00:30:56) non-prosecution
agreement he had, from Florida, from years
back. So, and also, when Jeffrey was first
arrested, his attorneys called me and asked me
if I would, back and help him with his bail.
They said it's helpful for other people to
participate in the bail. Because they should-
have. Put him in the house in 34
1 Florida(Indiscernible *00:31:15). I know
2 Jeffrey was not going to flee. He wasn't flee.
3 (Indiscernible *00:31:19). Not that he would
4 do that anyhow. Because he (Indiscernible
5 *00:31:23). And that's what put me on the map.
6 Most people didn't even know Jeff had a
7 brother.
8 MR. : Okay.
9 MR. EPSTEIN: We had a social life
10 together. And so, that's where my head, dating
11 back, you know, refer to it as a (Indiscernible
12 *00:31:36) proctologist. Every journalist on
13 the planet would (Indiscernible *00:31:38) to
14 try to find some dirt on me, to try to make me
15 tell this kind of stuff. (Indiscernible
16 *00:31:45). But yeah, he had two separate
17 lives. And so, bail was denied. And then, he
18 had a bail hearing coming up two days after he
19 died.
20 And this time - and he was pretty up,
21 like, you know, his jets, the house, close to
22 100 million dollars' worth of stuff for the
23 bail. The highest bail in the United Sates ever
24 was 100 million dollars. Some South American,
25 Central American, (Indiscernible *00:32:09).
35
1 But that's the highest bail they ruled on.
2 When they were going through the appeal on the
3 bail, his attorneys called me up and they asked
4 me if I would guarantee his entire bail. And
5 it has since doubled. And I agreed to it.
6 MR. : Okay.
7 MR. EPSTEIN: And so, there might have
8 been a chance he got bail in two days.
9 MS. : Right.
10 MR. EPSTEIN: And then, he would have been
11 under house arrest. He would have paid for
12 guards. They would have an ankle monitor.
13 Camera. Whatever it would take to do this all.
14 So, if you - and I think, you know, if he was
15 going to go take himself out, wait two fucking
16 days. You know, if you got bail, then you at
17 least, you're home for a year before the trial
18 comes up, if nothing else. (Indiscernible
19 *00:32:46iiiiiiiiiiit make sense.
20 MR. : Yeah.
21 MR. EPSTEIN: If Jeffrey went. I don't
22 think Jeffre would do that.
23 MR. : So, you did actually
24 agree to the bail --
25 MR. EPSTEIN: Yes. 36
1 MR. -- to (Indiscernible
2 *00:32:54) close to the bail?
3 MR. EPSTEIN: Yes.
4 MR. And that was two days
5 after he was found?
6 MR. EPSTEIN: No, no, no.
7 MS. : That's the day --
8 MR. EPSTEIN: The hearing was supposed to
9 -. I agree --
10 MR. : That's right.
11 MR. EPSTEIN: -- I agreed before he was
12 dead, but the hearing was supposed to take
13 place -. Like, he died, I think it was August
14 9th. Or something. The hearing was scheduled
15 for, like, 11th or something. There was, like,
16 a two-dayliiiiiiiii
17 MR. : And then, do you remember
18 how much the bail was?
19 MR. EPSTEIN: Close to 100 million.
20 MR. : It was close to 100?
21 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah.
22 MR. : Okay.
23 MR. just to clarify, you
24 mentioned 100 million dollar bail, and you
25 guaranteed it on top of it. So, that was
EFTA00113468
37 38
1 technically 200 million?
2 MR. EPSTEIN: Right. And his friend
3 put up some. I don't know how much
4 David put up. But he was also in the initial
5 pool at first, (Indiscernible *00:33:31) house.
6 In Florida. David had also put up some
7 (Indiscernible *00:33:35). David Michell is
8 the one who -. The friend. And I heard he was
9 ou (Indiscernible *00:33:40).
10 MR. : Now, as far as the person
11 that he - were you saying that he spoke with
12 someone on the telephone, prior to August 9th
13 or 10th?
14 MR. EPSTEIN: The night --
15 MR. : Or something.
16 MR. EPSTEIN: -- the evening before he
17 died, because it was (Indiscernible *00:33:54),
18 yeah.
19 MR. : And was that a female?
20 MR. EPSTEIN: Yes, it was.
21 MR. : And do you want to say
22 the name of its and ask if that's correct.
23 MR. Is the name Katrina Shuliac?
24 MR. EPSTEIN: Yes.
25 MR. : Is that who he spoke to? 1 MR. EPSTEIN: Yes.
2 MR. : And you spoke to -. Who is
3 Katrina Shuliac to Mr. Epstein?
4 MR. EPSTEIN: A friend.
5 MR. : A childhood friend, a long-
6 time friend?
7 MR. EPSTEIN: A number of years.
8 MR. : Were they in a relationship,
9 or -?
10 MR. EPSTEIN: His exact nature of it, I
11 don't know, because I didn't know of her. But
12 I know she's been -. I just found out she was
13 in the picture a number of years. I believe
14 eight years.
15 MR. : In a romantic relationship?
16 MR. EPSTEIN: I believe so. Yeah.
17 MS. : But you didn't know
18 confirmation? You had, like -.
19 MR. EPSTEIN: I can't ask Jeff.
20 MS. : Right. Obviously.
21 MR. Have you spoken with her?
22 MR. EPSTEIN: Yes.
23 MR. And did she say that they
24 were in a romantic relationship?
25 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. (Indiscernible
39
1 *00:34:44).
2 MR. She did?
3 MR. EPSTEIN: I believe it to be so, and I
4 found pictures.
5 MR. And have you seen -?
6 Have you spoken with her since August 9, 2019?
7 MR. EPSTEIN: Yes. Yes.
8 MR. : Did she tell you what the
9 conversation, what took place during the
10 conversation?
11 MR. EPSTEIN: Just that he was -. He
12 sounded upbeat, and is that she didn't think he
13 committed suicide. Because it didn't sound
14 like he was oin to do that.
15 MR. : But did she say anything
16 that they talked about, though?
17 MR. EPSTEIN: No. I didn't want to get
18 too personal. And, you know, at the time it
19 was , like, you know, my brother is dead, I
20 (Indiscernible *00:35:08) conversation that I
21 need to know. You know?
22 MR. : When did you speak with
23 her?
24 MR. EPSTEIN: A number of times since
25 then. 40
1 MR. Okay. But when you
2 specifically talked about the conversation that
3 she had with Jeffrey, (Indiscernible
4 *00:35:18)?
5 MR. EPSTEIN: That was -. I don't
6 remember the exact date. But I think it was
7 just a few weeks of the death.
8 MR. : Okay. But she didn't
9 tell you anything specifically why he contacted
10 her, or what they spoke about?
11 MR. EPSTEIN: No.
12 MR. : No. Just that he sounded
13 upbeat?
14 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. He was. Yeah.
15 That's, like, she made (Indiscernible
16 *00:35:41).
17 MR. Okay.
18 MR. : Was she surprised that he
19 called her?
20 MR. EPSTEIN: I don't -. I don't know if
21 -. I don't know. To be honest with you. I
22 didn't ask her that much. She didn't say, oh,
23 shit, yeah, I didn't get any kind of reaction
24 from her. (Indiscernible *00:35:41)
25 MR. : All right.
EFTA00113469
41
1 MR. Do you know if Jeffrey
2 changed his will leading up to August 9th?
3 MR. EPSTEIN: I was told he changed his
4 will. He did. Now, traditionally, my brother
5 and I were not in each other's wills. Because
6 I don't need his money, he don't need my money.
7 So, he changed the will, from my understanding.
8 Now, I'm not the executive of his estate. I
9 had nothing to do with his estate. The
10 executives don't even talk to me.
11 (Indiscernible *00:36:23) or anything. But
12 from what I understand, all of his assets were
13 put into a trust. Or they were supposed to be
14 put into a trust, after Jeffrey died. And they
15 paid out all the money to the victims, and his
16 (Indiscernible *00:36:35). And the trust
17 dictates what happens to his money. I'm not
18 the trustee and I'm not privy to his trust.
19 MR. : Who did you hear it from,
20 that he put it in the will? He changed the
21 will.
22 MR. EPSTEIN: Well, it was public
23 knowledge. Yeah. And his attorneys also told
24 me that he changed his will. But this is in
25 the papers. This was (Indiscernible 42
1 *00:36:SS). And he was trying to use that as,
2 well, he was contemplating suicide. I think
3 maybe he was contemplating being killed in
4 prison and wanted to make sure that his will
5 was up to date. I don't think it was fear -.
6 I don't think it was fear of suicide. I mean,
7 you know, I don't think he was planning
8 suicide. I think if anything, he was
9 (Indiscernible *00:37:14) about being in
10 prison. Indiscernible *00:37:16) stories.
11 MR. : And do you know anything
12 about him, like, being placed on suicide watch,
13 and taken off? Do you know anything -?
14 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. He was placed on
15 suicide watch, and he was taken off. Exactly
16 the reasons? I don't know. They never told
17 me.
18 MR. : Do you know if anyone
19 from the outside, such as his attorneys, or
20 anybody like that, called anyone to ask him to
21 be taken off of suicide watch?
22 MR. EPSTEIN: Only what was in the papers.
23 So --
24 MR. Okay.
25 MR. EPSTEIN: -- so, I don't have any
43
1 first-hand of it.
2 MR. : And you've never gotten
3 to speak to his attorneys? They never
4 disclosed the information?
5 MR. EPSTEIN: Not very much. No. Hmm-mm.
6 MR. : Okay. So, just the
7 papers. Other than having that conversation
8 with (Indiscernible *00:37:53), have you spoken
9 with anyone on the outside?
10 MR. EPSTEIN: No.
11 MR. : Right?
12 MR. EPSTEIN: Oh, so, David Shone
13 (Phonetic Sp. *00:37:56), the attorney, who was
14 going to go ask me, because he also said that
15 (Indiscernible *00:38:01) suicide. Yeah. I
16 was surprised because he felt -. He said Jeff
17 felt positive about the defense they were going
18 to go with know, in the prosecution.
19 MR. : And David Shone met them on
20 Friday?
21 MR. EPSTEIN: Excuse me?
22 MR. : You mentioned a David Shone
23 met with them on Friday.
24 MR. EPSTEIN: No, no, no, no, no. David
25 Shone, had met with him in jail, I think, 44
1 before he died. Not that day. I think it was
2 before.
3 MR. : You mentioned something about
4 a non-prosecution from Florida. Can you
5 explain that?
6 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. In 2006, I think it
7 was, when he first got in trouble in Florida,
8 you know, when he got back whatever, he got his
9 sweetheart deal. Which I was told, he got a
10 sweetheart deal because the girls that were
11 claiming to be victims were actually -
12 determined to be very unreliable witnesses.
13 Because they found their Facebook pages with
14 drugs and sex. And one of the girls was a
15 prostitute with her mother, you know, all kinds
16 of -.
17 These are not clean-cut little Catholic
18 school girls. You know, so, he got - made the
19 deal back in 2006, and part of the deal was he
20 had to sign the prosecution agreement for him
21 and the other unnamed individuals. I don't
22 know. It's -. And that's what he was living
23 on ever since. You know, just, there's been
24 no, from what I understand, I haven't seen any
25 evidence that he was with underaged women past
EFTA00113470
45
1 that point in time. And he got out of jail,
2 and did that, you know, 13 month sentence he
3 had and was in jail for (Indiscernible
4 *00:39:23).
5 He got a house. You know, he got that
6 work release -. (Indiscernible *00:39:29). He
7 got a good deal. After that, I mean, we used
8 to - there's a joke around with him You know,
9 and I told him, you know, I'm his brother and
10 said, set up a passport scanner in front of
11 your door, (Indiscernible *00:39:39). Tell
12 your girl that comes in, she has to to show
13 that she's at least 18. Yeah, you have -. You
14 know, we're joking around. So, and as far as I
15 know, there have been no claims of him being
16 with underaged women. And all the stuff that
17 he, well, I don't think it's the case, but yes.
18 MR. : You mentioned the non-
19 prosecution agreement, as the fact that he
20 believed he was getting out of prison.
21 MR. EPSTEIN: No, no. He got out of
22 prison. He served his time he was sentenced
23 to. But at that time - and this is public - he
24 had a non-prosecution agreement with the
25 federal government. You know, the same one, 46
1 that was the Southern District, or whatever,
2 what Florida park, or I don't know, the, like,
3 the lingo. I don't get in trouble, so I'm not
4 up on the (Indiscernible *00:40:21). You know,
5 and, you know, as far as I know, this one is
6 federal government.
7 MR. (Indiscernible
8 *00:40:24)
9 MR. EPSTEIN: And if you make a deal in a
10 non-prosecution agreement, with the federal
11 government, well, that's the federal
12 government. It's not like the New York people,
13 federal here have the right to break off the
14 agreement.
15 So, was it, why was he arrested? You know,
16 another theor about that --
17 MR. : Mm-hmm.
18 MR. EPSTEIN: -- okay, is that in the
19 screen, before he was arrested, one of the
20 victims went to the FBI, and said that she was
21 in his house, on Seventy First Street, and he
22 had this extensive camera system, in all the
23 rooms, all the bathrooms, all this kind of
24 stuff. Now, the one thing about Jeffrey is
25 that Jeffrey was a bull shitter. He would say
47
1 things just for be provocative.
2 Now, he had a very extensive video room,
3 when we first walk into the house on the right.
4 Because I was there years ago. With lots of
5 monitors. But they were all on the outside of
6 the building, for security. And inside the
7 front door, and inside the backdoor. There
8 wasn't cameras throughout the house. And I've
9 spoken with people who knew the house, people
10 who worked at the house. And they, like I
11 said, that extensive video system, that house
12 didn't exist.
13 But the FBI got this information that it
14 did. And then, a few months later, he gets
15 arrested, and they break into his house with a
16 search warrant, and I would like to see that
17 search warrant. This is what -. Because in
18 the search warrant, you have to state what
19 you're looking for. Right? You can't use it
20 as a fishing expedition. So, what is it they
21 were looking for? Because they broke into his
22 house, and they cut the safe open. But you
23 heard that he had about 470,000 in cash, and
24 diamonds.
25 Well, he's a very wealthy man. He's 48
1 allowed to have cash and diamonds. You know,
2 and he had some expired, old passport for some
3 (Indiscernible *00:41:55). (Indiscernible
4 *00:41:57) long story for that. But what were
5 they looking for? Who was (Indiscernible
6 *00:42:00) to get into this house to look for -
7 ? Who were they looking for? Are they looking
8 for the tapes of somebody on the street? They
9 had some tapes. That did not exist. Which
10 didn't exist.
11 And then, he was arrested, and you know,
12 gets killed. And like I said, he set you up as
13 a crook. I said, he had enough dirt on both
14 candidates to have the election cancelled in
15 2016. This doesn't alleviate -. If you forget
16 everything else, everything I showed you here,
17 and everything you know now, would you just
18 say, yes, it was a suicide? I wouldn't. And
19 not because - like I said - not because I'm his
20 brother. It just doesn't add up as a suicide.
21 Like I said, and trust me, if he committed
22 suicide, my life would have been a lot easier
23 this time.
24 I've had death threats, I've been in touch
25 with the FBI and NYPD for the last two years.

1 And I have hired armed guards for. When I met
2 with Steve Bannon, after I saw the tape that my
3 brother sent me after his death, I contacted
4 Steve Bannon, I wanted to find out what this
5 was about. You know? And I know that Bannon,
6 I actually had armed guards. I didn't, because
7 I didn't know who was (Indiscernible
8 *00:43:11). I knew him walking to a hotel, and
9 be taking out the garbage (Indiscernible
10 *00:43:13), like the show, you know?
11 And armed guards. And Bannon's told me
12 about the 16 hours of tape, and he told me that
13 the -. He said that the tape should protect
14 him, and that by attorney/client privilege, as
15 witnesse preparation. But Bannon is not an
16 attorney.
17 MR. : And which tapes are we
18 talking about right now?
19 MR. EPSTEIN: The 16 hours of video tape
20 interviews that (Indiscernible *00:43:33) with
21 my brother.
22 MR. : Off of what we've talked
23 about, at least thus far, who do you think we
24 should speak with, that would have the
25 firsthand knowledge, that would be willing to 50
1 speak with us?
2 MR. EPSTEIN: Well, I think you should
3 talk to the guards. The EMT uards.
4 and I think it's
5 (Phonetic Sp. *00:43:52). Or something
6 O'Shawnasee. Those are the two EMT guards.
7 MR. : Mm-hmm.
8 MR. EPSTEIN: Find out from them who was
9 directing the operations in the prison. Why
10 did they move the body out when they weren't
11 supposed to move the body out? Who was
12 directing them? Who was there?
13 MR. : Okay.
14 MR. EPSTEIN: And then, in the hospital,
15 when he was there, I mean, I don't know, do the
16 fire depairtniii iiiis wear body cameras?
17 MR. : Mm-hmm.
18 MR. EPSTEIN: EMTs? I don't know. You
19 know, but in a - like I said - there was a
20 handheld camera in the hospital, when they took
21 him, there were four people there. Two EMTs
22 and two other people, and someone would have a
23 video camera of that. And why did they dress
24 him in a iiiiiiii liown?
25 MR. : Okay.
51
1 MR. EPSTEIN: You know, why are they
2 trying to make him look -? Like, Bannon told
3 me there is a prison culture here. Nobody dies
4 in prison. You know, they find a dead body,
5 they ship them to the hospital, and it's
6 declared dead in the hospital. That's
7 traditional in the prison system. Because they
8 don't want to deal with the dead body in
9 prison. And that seems to be (Indiscernible
10 *00:44:52), as well. But what are they trying
11 to, you know, to take him out, trying to
12 intubate him. These guys are trained. Yeah,
13 now they know he's not coming back.
14 MR. : Yeah.
15 MR. EPSTEIN: So, why this charade? And
16 why are we in here, there was a camera guy
17 there. Right? Who took the photographs. You
18 got people questioning, how did he know to be
19 there?
20 MR. : Mm-hmm.
21 MR. EPSTEIN: Why was he there by the
22 prison early that morning, to take photographs
23 and (Indiscernible *00:45:16), no doubt.
24 MR. : Which camera guy are you
25 talking about? 52
1 MS. : The guy that had
2 (Indiscernible *00:45:19) poster.
3 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. I knew his name.
4 Farrington (Phonetic Sp. *00:45:25). I believe
5 it was William Farrington.
6 MR. : He was at the hospital,
7 or he was at the prison?
8 MR. EPSTEIN: At the prison.
9 MS. : At MCC.
10 MR. Okay.
11 MR. : When Mr. Epstein was being
12 rolled out?
13 MS. : Yup.
14 MR. EPSTEIN: Yeah. He's on the gurney,
15 and he's covered in a sheet. They have a neck
16 brace on him, and they -. He's intubated.
17 They have a thing down his throat, and that
18 squeezing one of those, the air balloons, to
19 try to get air into his lungs. Yeah. Which
