What Did Jeffrey Epstein Tell His Lawyers About Nicholas Tartaglione?

Epstein told his attorneys that the July 23 incident — when he was found semi-unconscious in his cell with injuries around his neck — was not a suicide attempt, but rather the result of a cell-mate assault. He asserted that Tartaglione “roughed him up” and had put something around his neck (a rope, a bedsheet or the like) in what Epstein described as a “prank or experiment” that left him shaken and bruised. In his account, Epstein said he “didn’t feel he was in a position to refuse” the act by his cell-mate, indicating either coercion or fear of retaliation. He told his lawyers the injury prompted his placement on suicide watch, but that his claim of being assaulted by Tartaglione was never properly pursued by the jail authorities. to contact me: [email protected] Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support .
