Jeffrey Epstein's Possible Suicide Note Reportedly Locked In a Courthouse [View all]

A suicide note possibly written by Jeffrey Epstein is allegedly hidden away in a New York courthouse, according to a new report by The New York Times. This report says Epstein’s cellmate, Nicholas Tartaglione, uncovered the note in July 2019 after Epstein survived his first suicide attempt and just weeks before he was later found dead.

The New York Times wrote that they petitioned the federal judge who sealed the note as part of Tartaglione’s case — meaning it was likely not included as evidence from the Epstein investigation — to unseal it on Thursday. The Times stated that they could not find the note among the released Epstein files.

Tartaglione, a former police offer, told The New York Times via a series of phone interviews from a California federal prison that the note said it was “time to say goodbye.”. He claimed the note was ripped from a yellow legal pad, tucked into a graphic novel in their cell. He told the reporters that Epstein wrote investigators “found nothing” and something like, “What do you want me to do, bust out crying? Time to say goodbye.”. Tartaglione, who is reportedly seeking an appeal and insists upon his innocence, is charged with a quadruple homicide and is currently serving four life sentences.

A two-page chronology of unknown origins shared by the report’s writers suggests that Tartaglione’s own lawyers had somehow, though unclear how, authenticated the note. In a 2025 interview with MAGA influencer Jessica Reed Kraus, Tartaglione said his lawyers had used “handwriting experts.”. According to the Times, Epstein had told jail officials that the marks around his neck in July 2019 were because Tartaglione attacked him, though Epstein allegedly told officials the two had “never had any issues” just one week later.
