Journalist Alisa Valdes-Rodríguez alleged President Donald Trump needed Jeffrey Epstein dead, granting William Barr’s Department of Justice the ability to create the conditions enabling the disgraced financier’s death in 2019.
Valdes-Rodríguez published her latest reporting on her Substack.
Barr, who served as attorney general during Trump’s first term, launched a federal investigation into Epstein’s death in federal custody. In 2023, it was deemed a suicide with no evidence of foul play.
However, Valdes-Rodríguez noted Barr’s undisclosed connections to Epstein: his former law firm represented Epstein in his controversial 2008 plea deal that granted broad immunity, according to The Daily Beast, and Barr’s father hired Epsteinas a teacher at the elite Dalton School despite his lack of college degree, according to Forbes.
Valdes-Rodríguez reported Barr refused to recuse himself from the investigation, according to CNBC.
She also argued, if Epstein were alive and willing to cooperate with prosecutors, it could represent Trump’s “single greatest existential threat,” given their decades-long friendship and documented accusations against the President’s connection to Epstein’s network.
