Jeffrey Epstein’s brother believes his brother’s purported suicide note, released this week in court, is fake.

Mark Epstein, speaking with The National Enquirer, called the document a “forgery.” “I’ve known Jeff all my life. If he was going to kill himself, if he was going to write a suicide note, he would’ve written it ‘to somebody,’ not just a blanket statement saying goodbye,” Epstein said. “I don’t buy that.”

Jeffrey Epstein’s former cellmate claims to have discovered the document in July 2019, after Epstein was found unresponsive but alive in his cell. Epstein died by suicide the following month.

“It’s bulls**t and let me explain why,” Epstein’s brother added in the National Enquirer interview. “In the July incident, Jeffrey’s cellmate attacked him, he reported it as such, he told his lawyer as such, and then he recanted that story saying he couldn’t remember what happened because he was fearful of retaliation.”

1. Release the Epstein autopsy

and end this lie about a suicide.

[SergeStorms]

13. If you can trust the autopsy.

The CME of NYC is an appointed position by the Mayor. There were enough important people involved that pressure on the CME is certainly not out of the question.

2. Just now found the note, makes one go 🤔 hmmmmmm,.......

[Whip-poor-will]

3. US fail

When the top living suspect in a child rape ring controls the evidence the system failed

[Autumn]

4. Reading it sounds just like the dirty old bustards tweets. He probably dictated it to whoever forged it.

[NJCher]

5. Forging handwriting is very difficult

A professional analysis by a handwriting expert is needed.

If it’s a forgery they just won’t subject the letter to an analysis.That alone will tell us it’s propaganda and that someone needed to prop up their story.

[Bengus81]

18. That will happen,of course by someone that Trump knows. Here's a $mill,

here's what your "results" are.

[NJCher]

25. and since he uses DOJ

for his personal law firm, he'll find a way to let them use tax dollars to pay for the "fee."

[mwb970]

6. Well of course it is! I knew that right from the beginning.

What's done is done; what's obvious is obvious.

[GreenWave]

7. The Epstein distraction Epstein Suicide Note.

I guess the Epstein Distraction Undeclared War wasn't victorious enough to see unbridled jingoism drowning the files out.

How about the Pentagon Always Out Of Focus UFO Photos Epstein Distraction Release?

[chouchou]

8. If Trump opens his dumb-ass mouth about the whole thing, he'll say something like..

"We've found a second suicide note after he died"....

[mwmisses4289]

9. Gee, yah think?

Of course it's fake.

[Mme. Defarge]

10. It certainly set off

my hinky meter. I’ve been checking in to see if there’s been a post on this topic.

[travelingthrulife]

11. The note reads exactly like one of Trump's Truth Social posts.

The words come from Trump, not Epstein.

[Picaro]

12. The style and tone is pure Trump

Someone posted that this “suicide note” sounds strangely like a Trump tweet (refuse to call the demented ramblings he spews on his silly site “truths”).

I have to agree.

I very much believe that Trump had Epstein assassinated. He knew entirely too much and Trump had him eliminated.

[FakeNoose]

15. You know who writes in the same style as Chump talks? Stephen Miller

... who is the author of many of Chump's Truth Social tweets that have been posted in Chump's name.
If this doesn't ring bells, I don't think anything ever will.

[Picaro]

20. Tend to forget that...

You’re spot on.
Stephen Miller has learned to imitate Trump’s writing style.

[BattleRow]

14. Has Ghislaine ever been interviewed or commented on Epsteins"suicide"?

[not fooled]

22. She's waiting for the pardon

Then, the Truth!

[Bengus81]

16. That language in there is very suspect IMO. Doesn't read like a high roller billionaire

Of course it's fake.........

[AllaN01Bear]

17. That whole thing haas always smelt to me

[ColoringFool]

19. The vocabulary, the poor grammar, the punctuation, AND........

the expressed aggrieved sentiments of injustice and "No Fun!"-----------

SOUND EXACTLY LIKE TRUMP. 1️⃣0️⃣0️⃣%‼️

So IMO, if Trump did NOT write this, then he either dictated it to Stephen Miller, or Stephen Miller wrote it while wittingly or unwittingly (more likely) imitating Trump’s style.

21. Epstein committed suicide and then cremated himself. Why don't people understand?

Geez

[Jilly_in_VA]

23. Epstein's brother would know

Don'tcha think? He's know both his handwriting and his syntax. Case closed.

[oasis]

24. No shit Sherlock!

[barbtries]

26. some are saying

that the note appears to have been written by one mad king. SOMETHING ABOUT THE CAPS.

[Bluetus]

27. It should be very easy to validate the handwriting.

The handwriting is very distinctive. It would be very easy for any competent handwriting expert to determine this.

I also thought the text made little sense for a person in Epstein's circumstances. But we don't need a psychiatrist to determine if Epstein wrote it.

Why has his brother not already engaged a handwriting expert? Or if he has, why isn't he revealing the expert opinion?

[relogic]

28. At this stage

of unbelievable ai generated creations why would they not sample any number of handwriting specimens to produce a suicide note that is indistinguishable from one he actually penned?

Tell me what I’m missing. Is not this possible?

[twodogsbarking]

29. Wow. Who would have imagined?

[reACTIONary]

30. The National Enquirer? I wonder.....

..... how much they paid him to supply the click bait. What a joke

[summer_in_TX]

31. Handwriting experts say the two notes (the 1st alleged suicide attempt and the 2nd) are by the same

person.

BUT the Epstein files released so far do not have enough of a verified sample of his handwriting to make a definitive claim that he wrote them.
