Washington.- An investigation by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) and the FBI concluded that financier Jeffrey Epstein, accused of sex trafficking of minors, did not maintain a "client list" to blackmail and confirmed his death by suicide in a New York prison in 2019, according to reports this Monday by U.S. media.

The findings, detailed in a memo reviewed by Axios and ABC News, represent the first official denial of conspiracy theories about an alleged list of influential personalities associated with Epstein and a possible murder to silence him. The DOJ and the FBI would also have reviewed several hours of video that would confirm that no one entered the area of the Manhattan prison where the 66-year-old billionaire took his own life while awaiting trial, under charges of sex trafficking of minors aided by his partner Ghislaine Maxwell, prosecuted and convicted of similar crimes. The review of the evidence was ordered by the administration of President Donald Trump after officials such as Attorney General Pam Bondi promised the publication of files related to the federal government's investigations into the case.

Epstein's death prevented the trial from taking place, so part of American society has since demanded that the Department of Justice make public the list of accomplices and clients and the flight records of his private plane to the island he had in the Virgin Islands, where some of the abuses would have occurred.

In the new memorandum, the US Justice Department warned that it will no longer disclose records of the investigation and that one of its main "priorities" is to "combat child exploitation and bring justice to the victims".

"Perpetuating unfounded theories about Epstein serves none of those purposes," the document states, according to ABC News. The publication of new details about the case of the deceased financier, with contacts in the high political and economic spheres of the U.S. and other countries, coincides with controversies and accusations against American personalities such as President Trump himself, accused by his former ally Elon Musk of appearing in Epstein's files, something that the president categorically denies and that Musk later retracted. However, Musk went on the offensive again against the Administration of his former ally after the reports about the memorandum. In a post on his social network X, the magnate - who these days has been toying with the possibility of creating a new political party in the U.S. - shared an image of an "official counter of arrests of the pedophile Jeffrey Epstein" set at zero and the comment "What time is it? Oh, look, again the time when no one gets arrested".
