Jeffrey Epstein Cause Of Death: How Did Jeffrey Epstein Die?

According to reports, Jeffery Epstein’s cause of death was suicide by hanging. Epstein’s attorneys said they will conduct their investigations into the circumstances of his death.

The medical examiner’s report came almost a week after the millionaire was found dead in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, where the 66-year-old was awaiting trial on federal charges accusing him of sexually abusing underage girls and running a sex trafficking ring.

How Did Jeffrey Epstein Die?

When Jeffery Epstein was placed in the Security Housing Unit, the jail informed the Justice Department that he would have a cellmate and that a guard would look into the cell every 30 minutes. The evening of his death, Epstein met with his lawyers, who described him as “upbeat” before being escorted back to SHU at 7:49 p.m by guard Tova Noel.

CCTV footage showed that two guards entered the tier where his cell was located. Through the night, in violation of the jail’s normal procedure, Epstein was not checked every 30 minutes. As the guards were distributing breakfast shortly after 6:30 am, on August 10, Epstein was found unresponsive in cardiac arrest in his cell.

At 6:33 am, the guards pulled an alarm, notifying their supervisor. He was rushed to the New York Downtown Hospital where he was pronounced dead at 6:39 am.
