Purported Epstein letter that referenced President Trump is fake, DOJ says

A salacious letter purportedly written by Jeffrey Epstein that directly referenced President Trump is fake, the Justice Department said Tuesday.

“The FBI has confirmed that this alleged letter from Jeffrey Epstein to Larry Nassar is FAKE,” the DOJ wrote on X hours after it pledged it was “looking into the validity of this alleged letter.”

Epstein purportedly wrote the letter to fellow sex offender Larry Nassar — the disgraced USA Gymnastics doctor who is serving hundreds of years of prison for abusing girls under his care.

The Justice Department cited several reasons for its conclusion, including a handwriting mismatch, an incorrect return address missing Epstein’s inmate number and a northern Virginia postmark dated three days after Epstein’s death at New York’s Metropolitan Correctional Center.

“This fake letter serves as a reminder that just because a document is released by the Department of Justice does not make the allegations or claims within the document factual. Nevertheless, the DOJ will continue to release all material required by law,” the department wrote.

The handwritten note at one point says, “Our president also shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to ‘grab s—ch,’ whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system.”

“Life is unfair,” the author concludes before signing off: “Yours, J. Epstein.”
