Epstein Dead – Apparent Suicide

Jeffery Epstein age 66, was found dead in his prison cell earlier this morning. It was an apparent suicide. The Clinton’s cannot be reached for comment.

(CNN) — Jailed multimillionaire financier and accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has died by suicide, two law enforcement sources said Saturday, a day after a court unsealed new details of the claims against him.

Epstein, 66, was taken from New York’s Metropolitan Correctional Center on Saturday morning in cardiac arrest and died at an area hospital, the sources told CNN.

An ambulance was called at about 6:40 a.m. Epstein was being treated by members of the detention center’s medical unit and was administered CPR, and he died a short time later at an area hospital, one of the sources said.

Epstein had been jailed since early July, when he pleaded not guilty to charges by New York federal prosecutors after an indictment accused him of sex trafficking dozens of underage girls, some as young as 14 years old.

News of Epstein’s death comes a day after hundreds of pages of court documents were unsealed in New York federal court , alleging new details of sexual abuse claims against Epstein and several associates.

A spokeswoman for the US Attorney’s office in Manhattan, which was prosecuting Epstein, declined to comment on Saturday.

An attorney for Epstein, Reid Weingarten, didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.
