WASHINGTON, DC: Katie Miller, during her podcast’s recent episode, questioned Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche about the 2019 death of Jeffrey Epstein. She asked him directly if he was "still confident his death wasn’t a murder," despite official reports stating it was a suicide.

The interview focused on why many people still doubt the official story and whether the government has looked into all the evidence. Blanche defended the original findings, explaining that while there were mistakes made by the prison that night, he believes the evidence still points to suicide.

Todd Blanche confirms evidence points to suicide

During the interview, Miller asked point-blank if Epstein killed himself or was murdered. 

Blanche explained that he “reviewed all the available evidence regarding his death" from different groups, like the New York City Medical Examiner and the FBI. 

He told her, “I have no reason to doubt that conclusion that they reached based upon everything I’ve reviewed.” 

He admitted he wasn't there personally, but said, “The evidence that has been accumulated and reviewed since that time says yes, he did commit suicide.”

Todd Blanche explains unusual way Epstein died

Miller brought up the fact that many people believe the injuries to Epstein's neck looked more like a murder than a hanging. 

She asked, “Are you guys completely confident that he was indeed suicide?” 

Blanche explained that the way it happened was unusual because of the "Special Housing Unit" where Epstein was kept. 

He noted that there was no way to hang from a ceiling there, so “the evidence that was uncovered by the OCME was that he hung himself from the bunk bed, which is about the same height as his neck.” 

He added that Epstein was “not the first inmate to do that in the federal prison system.”

Todd Blanche discusses 'large gap' in security during the night

The conversation also touched on the many different topics surrounding his deaths including the mistakes made by the prison guards that night. 

Miller asked why a clear time of death was never found, and Blanche admitted it was a major failure. 

He explained that “the guards were required to do check-ins and they were dishonest about whether they had done them every half hour like they’re required to do. They didn’t do it. And because of that, there’s a large gap of time over the night that nobody checked on him. And at some point in that time period, he died. And so, you’re right. So, the exact time of death was not able to be determined because of that.”

When Miller asked about a mysterious figure seen on camera near the cell, Blanche said, “I don’t think we know” who it was, but he argued that if a murderer had entered such a high-security area, they likely would have been seen by other guards or inmates.
