A federal judge has made public an alleged suicide note written by Jeffrey Epstein, marking the first time the document has been seen in public in almost seven years. Nicholas Tartaglione, who shared a cell with Epstein at the notorious Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City, said he discovered the note following the paedophile's failed suicide attempt in July 2019. Epstein was found dead in his cell weeks later. "They investigated me for months — FOUND NOTHING!!!" the note reads. "It is a treat to be able to choose one's time to say goodbye. Watcha want me to do — Bust out cryin!! NO FUN – NOT WORTH IT!!" But mysteriously, the note bears no signature. The document was released after the New York Times published a story last week revealing its existence and filed a petition with a court in White Plains, New York. Tartaglione, a former police officer currently serving a life sentence for quadruple murder, is appealing his conviction. He found Epstein unresponsive in their shared cell, federal records show. Following this incident, Epstein told prison officials that Tartaglione had attacked him. In the weeks before his death, Epstein insisted he was not suicidal. Tartaglione gave the note to his lawyers as potential evidence against any future assault claims from Epstein, according to the Times. Tartaglione's legal team employed handwriting experts to verify that Epstein had authored the note. The document had remained sealed as part of Tartaglione's appeal due to attorney-client privilege. New York City's medical examiner determined in 2019 that Epstein died by suicide. More to follow... Our Standards: The GB News Editorial Charter
