Convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, 66, has died inside a Manhattan correctional facility, two senior law enforcement officials told The Daily Beast. They said that it appeared he had committed suicide.
A spokeswoman for office of chief medical examiner confirmed they had Epstein's body, and said, “We are investigating this death. Cause and manner are pending.”
The Fire Department of New York received a call at 6:39 a.m. to MCC and transported Epstein to New York Presbyterian-Lower Manhattan Hospital, where he was pronounced dead, spokesman said. Medics tried to revive him along the way.
