On the fifth anniversary of Jeffrey Epstein's death in a New York prison, we both re-release our first episodes investigating his death AND we will bring you three extraordinary new interviews.
We tracked down two high-level criminals who were in the prison, on the Special Housing Unit where Jeffrey Epstein was found dead.
For the first time, anywhere, their views on what happened that night to America's most famous prisoner....
**
It is a mystery that obsesses our time.
Jeffrey Epstein, one of the richest and most well-connected men in America, walked into prison. He was friends and a business associate of some of the most powerful people in the world - Presidents, Prime Ministers, Princes, politicians, business tycoons - the very top of the 1%er class.
He also ran a sexual trafficking network of young girls and women.
Just over a month later, he was found dead in his cell.
The official response? Immediately declare it suicide.
Many people around the world, did not believe it. So in the last four-and-a-half years, while there has been a great deal of rumour, speculation, theorizing and fantasy - there has been a distinct lack of proper investigation.
I an Investigation Program students of one of the finest academic institutions for the study of crime - the University of New Haven - have been examining the case. We have read thousands of pages of documents and interviewed people with real, first-hand knowledge about the case.
This is the story of Jeffrey Epstein’s death. This episode is an interview with one of the lawyers who met him just days before he died. And like most people close to Jeffrey Epstein - he does not think he committed suicide.
He thinks it was murder.
