In a striking revelation from the Metropolitan Correctional Centre, inmate Nicholas Tartaglione discovered a note that surfaced after Jeffrey Epstein’s death. The note, scribbled on yellow legal pad paper, contained the poignant words: "What do you want me to do, bust out crying? Time to say goodbye." This note was found concealed within a graphic novel.
Before his death, Epstein had refuted any claims of a suicide attempt, asserting that the marks on his neck were a result of Tartaglione’s aggression. Following this incident, Epstein was moved to a solitary cell, where he was later found dead. Tartaglione allegedly informed his attorney about the note post-Epstein’s passing, prompting the lawyer to submit it to a federal district courthouse located north of New York City.
According to reports from The New York Times, the court has received the note and is considering its release. Notably, this piece of evidence was not part of the series of documents linked to Epstein which have yet to be disclosed, nor has it been referenced in any formal inquiries into his death.
Tartaglione, who is serving four life sentences for multiple homicides, has consistently denied involvement in Epstein’s death and has been cleared of any wrongdoing connected to it. The circumstances surrounding Epstein’s demise have attracted considerable speculation and concern. The correctional facility where Epstein was housed has since been closed down.
At the time of his death, Epstein was facing serious charges related to the trafficking of minors for sexual exploitation. The Trump administration has faced criticism for only providing a fraction of the investigative files associated with Epstein, despite a legislative requirement to release all pertinent documents.
As the investigation into Epstein’s death continues to spark debate and interest, further developments surrounding the previously undisclosed note may play a significant role in understanding the events leading up to that tragic incident.
