Jeffrey Epstein’s Brother Rips Trump Admin for Claiming Sex Offender Killed Himself: ‘I Laughed at How Stupid It Was’
Mark Epstein, the brother of late serial sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, told NewsNation host Chris Cuomo on Tuesday that he “laughed” at the Trump administration’s claim his brother killed himself.
Interviewing Epstein after President Donald Trump’s Department of Justice and FBI concluded there was no Epstein “client list,” no evidence the sex offender was blackmailing “prominent individuals,” and no sign that Epstein was murdered in his prison cell, Cuomo asked, “Mark, you do not believe what the administration, the Trump administration is putting out about your brother now. Why?”
Epstein responded:
Well, every time they say something or do something to try to quash the fact that he was most likely murdered, they just put their foot further down their mouths. I mean, for instance, Kash Patel in the congressional hearing, you know, he listed his credentials as a prosecutor and other such things and he said that it was a suicide. He said, “You know a suicide when you see it.” You know, that’s basically what he said.
So the question that popped into my mind was, first of all, number one, how many suicides has he seen? Number one. Two, is he a forensic pathologist? Does he have a medical degree? Does he have a certificate that he passed a CPR course? Does he have a Boy Scout merit badge for first aid? What is he basing his expertise on? Contrast that to Dr. Roman, who was a city pathologist who did the autopsy, she came out of the autopsy and said she couldn’t call it a suicide because it looked too much like a homicide. Dr. Michael Baden, who was there on my behalf, who witnessed the autopsy, also concurred that it looked more like a homicide than a suicide. Now, was Kash Patel in that autopsy room? No. Was Kash Patel in the prison when they found Jeffrey? No, I don’t think so, and if he was there that raises an even bigger question.
He concluded, “When Kash Patel came out with that statement, I laughed at how stupid it was.”
The Trump administration received backlash this week over its handling of the Epstein case, with FBI director Kash Patel, deputy director Dan Bongino, and U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi receiving the majority of the heat.
Trump’s former ally Elon Musk questioned on Tuesday how the president could be trusted going forward “if he won’t release the Epstein files.”
Meanwhile, Trump snapped at a reporter on Tuesday after being asked about his administration’s conclusion on the Epstein case.
“Are you still talking about Jeffrey Epstein? We have Texas, we have this, we have all of the things. Are people still talking about this guy, this creep? That is unbelievable!” Trump protested.
