Jeffrey Epstein’s brother told the FBI that the financier was killed on Donald Trump’s orders because he was preparing to “name names”.
In a letter from Mark Epstein to the FBI, dated 2023, he wrote: “Jeffrey Epstein was killed in his cell. I have reason to believe he was killed because he was about to name names. I believe President Trump authorized this killing.”
This document was released by the US Department of Justice in December 2025.
