A federal judge in the Southern District of New York, Kenneth M. Karas, unsealed a purported Jeffrey Epstein suicide note on May 6, 2026, following a petition by The New York Times after it remained sealed for nearly seven years in related court records. The unsigned, undated document—allegedly found by Epstein's former cellmate Nicholas Tartaglione in a graphic novel shortly after a July 2019 incident—expresses frustration with investigations and contains phrases matching Epstein's prior writings, though unauthenticated. DOJ prosecutors deferred to the court without confirming provenance, fueling trader disputes on Polymarket resolution criteria requiring credible reporting of Epstein authorship and suicidal intent. Ongoing media handwriting analysis sustains uncertainty ahead of the May 31 deadline.
