The Trump administration has officially dismissed long-running conspiracy theories about Jeffrey Epstein’s death, releasing findings that support the medical examiner’s suicide ruling and deny claims of blackmail or a hidden ‘client list.’
WASHINGTON — The Justice Department and FBI under President Trump have concluded there is no evidence Jeffrey Epstein was murdered, maintained a blackmail “client list,” or that powerful figures were involved in his death, according to an internal memo obtained by Axios.
The administration released enhanced surveillance video from the night of Epstein’s 2019 death in a Manhattan jail, which it says confirms no one entered his cell area—supporting the official suicide ruling. Investigators analyzed footage from 10:40 p.m. on August 9 to 6:30 a.m. on August 10, finding “no incriminating ‘client list’” or proof Epstein blackmailed elites, the memo states.
The findings contradict conspiracy theories once amplified by now-FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino, who as conservative media figures questioned Epstein’s death. Both have since reversed course, with Bongino stating in May: “He killed himself. I’ve seen the whole file.”
The memo ends speculation about further charges, noting Ghislaine Maxwell’s 20-year sentence closes the case. It also rejects demands from GOP lawmakers and MAGA influencers for more Epstein document releases, citing the protection of victims and “innocent individuals.”
The report comes amid lingering scrutiny of Epstein’s ties to Trump, whom Epstein once called his “closest friend.” Trump has denied any association since the early 2000s. Democrats continue pressing for details, while Elon Musk briefly accused Trump of being “in the Epstein files” before retracting the claim.
The DOJ stated no further disclosures are “appropriate,” citing the sensitivity of materials related to child abuse.
🚨🇺🇸 DOJ RELEASES EPSTEIN VIDEO TO “PROVE” SUICIDE, BUT SOMETHING’S OFF
The full 11-hour video outside Epstein’s cell shows… nothing.
No one entering. No one leaving. No one watching.
But this doesn’t line up with everything we’ve been told about the case.

DOJ RELEASES EPSTEIN VIDEO TO “PROVE” SUICIDE, BUT SOMETHING’S OFF

No one entering. No one leaving. No one watching.
But this doesn’t line up with everything we’ve been told about the case.
In 2020, prosecutors “accidentally” deleted video from his first “suicide attempt” and even saved footage from the wrong cell.
Sure.
Oh, and two cameras near his cell just happened to break that night.
The ones that didn’t break? Conveniently, they’re the ones showing 11 hours of nothing.
Ok then…
