Seven years after the billionaire pedophile’s death, Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged suicide note has just been released to the public by a federal judge.
The note is scrawled out in hard-to-read handwriting.
But, it purportedly reads:
They investigated me for month — found nothing!!! So 16 year old charge results! It is a treat to be able to choose one’s time to say goodbye. Watcha want me to do — burst out crying!! NO FUN — not worth it!!

A federal judge has released a suicide note purportedly written by Jeffrey Epstein that was sealed for years as part of the criminal case of his cellmate
“They investigated me for months — FOUND NOTHING!!!” the note begins, adding that the result was charges going back many years.
“It is a treat to be able to choose one’s time to say goodbye,” the note continued.
“Watcha want me to do — Bust out cryin!!” the note reads.
“NO FUN,” it concludes, with those words underlined. “NOT WORTH IT!!”
Backup here, if needed:

The New York Times was the first to publish the alleged suicide note, but the outlet was unable to independently verify its authenticity (surprise, surprise.)
Reportedly, the note was found by Epstein’s cellmate after his first suicide attempt, which he survived. It was kept hidden from the public all this time.
It was unsealed as part of a court order in response to a petition from the news outlet.
Per the NYT:
Mr. Epstein’s cellmate, Nicholas Tartaglione, said he discovered the note in July 2019 after Mr. Epstein was found unresponsive with a strip of cloth wrapped around his neck. Mr. Epstein survived that incident, but he was found dead weeks later at age 66 in the now shuttered Metropolitan Correctional Center in Lower Manhattan.
The note was made public on Wednesday by Judge Kenneth M. Karas of Federal District Court in White Plains, N.Y., who oversaw the cellmate’s case. The judge acted after The New York Times petitioned the court last Thursday to unseal the document and published an article in which Mr. Tartaglione described the note and how it came into his possession.
The Times has not authenticated whether Mr. Epstein wrote the note, which was placed on the court docket Wednesday evening.

It would be interesting to get some forensic analysis on this to see if it actually appears to have been written by Epstein.
Many folks remain suspicious:
I don’t think he did that to himself but if he did there’s no way that’s all he left behind in writing

Looks like one of his victims wrote it. I don’t buy this suicide for one minute

I’m surprised it didn’t say “Trump made me do it all”

What do you think?
Does Epstein’s alleged “suicide note” add any credibility to the official narrative that he killed himself?
