Jeffrey Epstein may have tried to kill himself in prison more times than previously known before he was found unresponsive in his jail cell while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges in 2019.
The wealthy and well-connected sex offender tried to kill himself by hanging at least two other times before a previously reported failed attempt, according to a cellmate interviewed by The New York Times for a sprawling investigation into Epstein’s final days inside New York’s Metropolitan Correctional Center.
