In a February 2026 appearance on The Don Lemon Show, Mark Epstein raised questions about the 2019 jailhouse death of his brother, Jeffrey Epstein, suggesting that if there was a coordinated cover-up, it could have reached as high as the White House.
During the interview with Lemon, Mark reiterated his long-standing belief that Jeffrey did not die by suicide while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges in a Manhattan detention facility. Federal authorities ruled the death a suicide by hanging, and subsequent Justice Department reviews found no evidence of homicide. Mark, however, has consistently disputed that conclusion.
