Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his room in August 2019 and it was ruled a suicide, but there are conspiracy theories that he allegedly did not kill himself.
Outlandish theories about Jeffrey Epstein’s death have surfaced after a new batch of files were released. The Justice Department announced the final step this Friday. Epstein died by hanging in his New York jail cell in August 2019, and it was ruled a suicide. However, this did not prevent the many conspiracy theories that had already sprung up about Epstein ‘not killing himself’.
The Justice Department has released the final portion of files related to Jeffrey Epstein. (x/@cool_ustaz)Now, theories have gone a step further that he might even be alive. Photos of Epstein were also shared to drive home the point. To be sure, these claims come from unverified profiles and whatever theories have been floated, have not been proven to lend any credibility to said claims.
“If Jeffrey Epstein is dead and Ghislaine Maxwell isn’t, Epstein isn’t dead, Ghislaine knows as well as he is so why is he alive? Why aren’t they asking him questions? Epstein is probably chilling somewhere,” one person on X commented.

Do you think that narcissist will destroy himself?” Another commented, “An email found in the Epstein files supports the theory that Epstein is alive and that his “suicide” was a big hoax.”
The document details a conversation with Epstein in which he says biology is ‘fraud’.
His autopsy photo is also mentioned. “DOJ investigative report 2023-Epstein’s death takes a deep dive into prison-mental state-autopsy photos. Epstein had sleep apnea and his machine was found in perfect condition in his cell. His brother Mark said the cord was easier to use to hang himself than a sheet,” one person wrote.
Some shared pictures to make their point. “That’s not Jeffrey on the autopsy table…they replaced him with a similar body! Look at the shape of the nose and ears – they’re different! It’s definitely not the same person. He could still be alive.”
Another profile shared a photo of the alleged autopsy and wrote “Hyoid bone fractures occur in 8% of cases like that. Seeing as this is bad, especially in a room with a ceiling height of only 8-9 feet, it becomes fair to ask if the whole story is a hoax.”
A drone photo claiming to show the financier since Epstein’s suicide has sparked further buzz. HT.com could not independently verify the authenticity of these images.
As fact-checking Jeffrey Epstein claimsDespite disproving X’s claims, there is no evidence to support Epstein’s survival. Groke verified this statement “Officially, as confirmed by the New York City medical examiner and a DOJ investigation with a 2025 report, Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide on August 10, 2019. An autopsy showed a neck fracture consistent with hanging. Conspiracy theories did not allege or prove his involvement in the murder, but there was no evidence of murder. Supporting them.”
“Epstein’s remains lie in an unmarked crypt at IJ Morris at Star of David Cemetery in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, next to his parents. His brother arranged for cremation,” Groke added, sharing information about where Epstein is buried.
