Epstein's brother breaks his silence: "He knew things about Trump that could have ruined him. He didn't commit suicide, he was murdered."

Mark Epstein, brother of the late financier Jeffrey Epstein, breaks his silence and accuses Steve Bannon, Donald Trump's former strategist, of having hours of video interviews with his brother, but after showing him one, he never responded. The video allegedly shows Jeffrey Epstein clearly saying he cut off contact with Trump after realizing he was "a fraud."

According to Corriere della Sera, the material in question was intended to be made into a documentary, but was never released. The existence of these interviews has now become a crucial point in the web of mysteries, omissions, and reticence surrounding the Epstein affair.

According to Mark Epstein, the only clip viewed came via an email forwarded by Jeffrey himself, containing a Dropbox link received from Bannon. After Epstein's death, Mark tried to retrieve the rest of the recordings, but Bannon stopped responding. Mark Epstein has no doubts: Trump had direct dealings with Jeffrey, and Maxwell may know much more.

Epstein also believes his brother did not take his own life, but was killed in a Manhattan jail. The news of his death came to him from the media, not the authorities. The autopsy results reportedly did not rule out homicide. Medical examiner Michael Baden, who was present at the autopsy on behalf of the family, found that the neck fractures were not consistent with a typical suicide by hanging.

Finally, Mark also points the finger at Bill Barr, Attorney General under Trump. Barr had stated that surveillance videos ruled out unauthorized access to the prison area where Epstein died. But Mark points out that there were at least twelve other inmates in that wing.
