A federal judge unsealed an alleged suicide note written by Jeffrey Epstein on Wednesday, marking the first time the document has been made public. The note was reportedly found by Epstein's cellmate at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City, Nicholas Tartaglione, after Epstein unsuccessfully attempted suicide in July 2019. This was, of course, just weeks before Epstein was eventually found dead in his jail cell under circumstances that continue to generate more questions than answers.
