Republican Congressman Matt Gaetz says sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein was killed as part of a ‘foreign operation’, but refused to divulge which government was responsible for his death.
Gaetz made the comments during an appearance on Benny Johnson’s show.
In August 2019, Epstein was found unresponsive in his jail cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City after supposedly committing suicide by hanging.
Multiple violations of normal jail procedures allied with the convenient failure of two cameras in front of Epstein’s cell prompted conspiracy theories suggesting Epstein was murdered in order to keep his high profile client list secret.
At the time, Attorney General William Barr described Epstein’s death as “a perfect storm of screw-ups,” but Gaetz said Barr should be called to testify because “there’s no way the story you’re getting is the real story there, no freakin’ way and Bill Barr knows it.”
