"The decision by US District Judge Kenneth Karas did not establish the note's authenticity, but simply found that it was a judicial document subject to the public's right of access. The document, which was released on Wednesday, was submitted as part of the criminal case of Nicholas Tartaglione, a former police officer and convicted murderer who had been Epstein's cellmate."
"Lawyers for Tartaglione said he had found the note when he and Epstein shared a cell for about two weeks in July 2019. Handwritten on a yellow legal pad, the note contained a simple message: 'They investigated me for month Found NOTHING!!! So 15 year old charges resulted.'"
"The newspaper reported the document was never seen by federal investigators and was absent from millions of Epstein-related documents released by the Department of Justice in recent years. The New York Times had officially requested the release by Judge Karas."
A handwritten note allegedly written by Jeffrey Epstein on a yellow legal pad was released by US District Judge Kenneth Karas in New York. The judge's decision did not verify the document's authenticity but determined it qualified as a judicial record accessible to the public. The note was submitted as evidence in the criminal case of Nicholas Tartaglione, a former police officer and convicted murderer who shared a jail cell with Epstein in July 2019. Tartaglione claimed he discovered the note tucked inside a book during their two-week cellmate period. Epstein died weeks later in August 2019 while awaiting trial on federal sex trafficking charges. The note's existence remained unknown to federal investigators and was absent from millions of Epstein-related documents released by the Department of Justice.
