The brother of Jeffrey Epstein has shocked the internet after he hung up in the middle of an interview with Piers Morgan.
Mark Epstein spoke to Piers Morgan, appearing on his Uncensored programme where he shared his beliefs that his brother was murdered.
He went on to add that a ‘group of pathologists’ were studying the autopsy results, saying: “They are concluding, and doing the report that will come out shortly, which is being peer reviewed, for a number of reasons showing it couldn't have been a suicide as they had claimed.”
Mark added: “It will conclusively show it was not a suicide… then who killed him and who had him killed.”

Piers asked the real estate developer whether or not he knew that his brother was a pedophile before his death.

This didn’t go down well with Mark who replied: “Unfortunately, I really don’t care to be honest with you. I’m just concerned that my brother, whoever and whatever he was, was murdered. That’s my concern.”
When he was questioned further by Piers, Mark responded: “These are the questions I don't get into. Have a good day.”
He promptly hung up, abruptly ending the interview early.
Piers himself took to social media to react to the moment, posting a clip of it on X, formerly Twitter, adding: “Extraordinary…”
This interview came after the Department of Justice released the files pertaining to late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
This release included over three million documents pertaining to Epstein which are now available to the public, including emails, videos and more than 180,000 images.
Investigations into the crimes of Epstein continue, with a deposition being conducted by the US House Oversight Committee earlier this month where Epstein’s associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, refused to answer any questions put to her at the advice of her lawyer.
Back in 2022, Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years behind bars for her part in a scheme to sexually exploit and abuse multiple minor girls with Epstein over the course of a decade.
She was brought before the committee as it continues its investigation into Epstein’s crimes but when quizzed, Maxwell invoked her Fifth Amendment right to remain silent.
Per the United States Attorney's office, Maxwell, who was once said to have been a romantically involved with Epstein, assisted, facilitated, and participated in disgraced financier Epstein’s abuse of minor girls by, among other things, helping him to recruit, groom, and ultimately abuse victims known to Maxwell and Epstein to be under the age of 18.
As of November 2025, the Justice Department said that at least 1,000 women were victimized by Epstein, said USA Today.
