Event Details

This document is an email chain from August 10, 2019, the day of Jeffrey Epstein's death, between government officials (likely SDNY prosecutors) and Epstein's defense team (Miller, Weinberg, Weingarten). The emails verify that a call from a BOP/MCC employee to Epstein's associates regarding the recovery of his body was legitimate and not a hoax, clarifying that the BOP contacted the next-of-kin (Epstein's brother) to prepare for transport once the body was ready. The government also confirms that an FBI investigation into the death has been initiated and is expected to be 'extremely rigorous,' while providing the FBI tip line for any relevant information.
