The sex offender allegedly asked his former cellmate how to make a noose before multiple suicide attempts, the outlet has claimed
Jeffrey Epstein attempted suicide at least three times before his death in a Manhattan jail cell in 2019, according to the New York Times. Investigators reportedly found multiple nooses in his cell after his death, a report detailing the convicted sex offender’s final days in federal custody has revealed.
Days before his first reported suicide attempt, Epstein asked his cellmate Nicholas Tartaglione how to make a noose after a judge denied his bail request, the outlet reported. The investigation, published on Tuesday, drew on court documents, previously released Epstein files and more than 50 new interviews with inmates, jail staff and others.
Tartaglione, a former New York police officer serving four life sentences for a quadruple murder, told the outlet the question came roughly two weeks into Epstein’s detention at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, where he was awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges.
