Jeffrey Epstein Found Injured on Jail Cell Floor, Possible Suicide Attempt or Assault (Report)

Jeffrey Epstein was found injured on the floor of a prison cell on Wednesday (July 24).

The 66-year-old financier and acquaintance of stars and politicians including Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, who was accused of sex trafficking involving underage girls and arrested on charges in early July, was found on the floor of his cell in Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correction Center.

He was discovered in the fetal position, semi-conscious with marks on his neck according to NBC News.

Sources say he may have tried to hang himself, while other sources claim the injuries were not serious, and were possibly done on purpose to obtain a transfer from jail. An assault is also reportedly being considered.

The Daily Beast reported that he was moved to solitary custody to protect him from inmates threatening him with injury.

His trial date has not yet been set.
