Plot Synopsis

As the first installment of Investigation Discovery's WHO KILLED... anthology series, WHO KILLED JEFFREY EPSTEIN? is a three-part documentary series that features exclusive interviews and an in-depth investigation to reveal new clues about Jeffrey Epstein's seedy underworld, privileged life and controversial death. How did a college drop-out, turned high school math teacher, catapult himself into enormous personal wealth while creating a human sex trafficking syndicate catering to the rich and famous? And what despicable secrets, risks and lies followed him directly to his prison cell where he was found dead, with one final question: who killed him? Jeffrey Epstein's repugnant saga begins in Palm Beach, Florida. Often thought of as a high-society retreat for the rich and affluent, Epstein was first accused of trafficking young women to his Palm Beach estate in 2005 -- but, somehow, Epstein escaped relatively unscathed from the law enforcement system. This pattern repeated and persisted through seven civil cases, until this past year, when Epstein was finally pulled into the limelight and placed in a holding cell as he awaited trial. But on August 10, 2019, Epstein was found dead in his cell. It appeared to be a suicide, yet forensics experts and the media began swarming with skepticism and doubt. This timely special follows the political connections, philanthropic ties, and famous friendships that Epstein fostered, begging the question: was Jeffrey Epstein's death truly a suicide -- or was it part of a far more sinister cover up? Investigation Discovery premiered all three episodes of WHO KILLED JEFFREY EPSTEIN? back to back from 9pm-Midnight ET/PT on Sunday, May 31, 2020.
