And thr FBI couldn’t figure out how..

At 8:16 a.m. on August 10, 2019, an anonymous 4Chan user posted, “don’t ask me how I know, but Epstein died an hour ago from hanging, cardiac arrest. Screencap this.”
It was the first public indication that Epstein, awaiting trial for sex-trafficking charges in Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Center, died while in the custody of the Department of Justice, BuzzFeed News reported at the time.
It beat ABC News journalist Aaron Katersky’s post about Epstein’s death on Twitter, now known as X, by 38 minutes. A few minutes later, the ABC News website published the first article about Epstein’s apparent suicide in jail.
The newly released Epstein files show that the Justice Department tried to identify the 4Chan user behind the posts — but couldn’t figure it out.
The documents show the Justice Department subpoenaed 4Chan for the user’s IP addresses four days after the posts were made as part of the FBI’s investigation into Epstein’s death.
From there, the trail went cold.
