Jeffrey Epstein's Cause of Death Revealed

The official results of Jeffrey Epstein‘s death have been revealed.

The disgraced financier, who was indicted on federal sex trafficking charges, died as the result of suicide by hanging, the city’s medical examiner’s office reported on Friday (August 16).

Jeffrey was found dead on Saturday (August 10) at the age of 66 in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City.

He “appeared to have tied a bedsheet to the top of a set of bunk beds, then knelt toward the floor with enough force that he broke several bones in his neck,” according to officials.

He previously reportedly attempted to kill himself in late July while awaiting trial. He was taken off suicide watch days before his death.
