A federal judge in New York ordered on May 6 the release of a suicide note that purportedly was written by convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein before his death in August 2019.

The note was allegedly found by Epstein’s former cellmate after his first suspected suicide attempt in jail. It was made public for the first time on Wednesday, unsealed by U.S. District Judge Kenneth Karas in White Plains, New York, in response to a request from The New York Times.
