“The defence team fully intends to conduct its own independent and complete investigation into the circumstances and cause of Mr Epstein’s death including if necessary legal action to view the pivotal videos — if they exist as they should — of the area proximate to Mr Epstein’s cell during the time period leading to his death.
“We are not satisfied with the conclusions of the medical examiner. We will have a more complete response in coming days.”
An ex-convict - who spent time in the same jail as Epstein - recently told the New York Post that it is 'impossible' to kill yourself inside the cells.
The ex-criminal, who chose to remain anonymous, told the publication: "There’s no way that man could have killed himself. I’ve done too much time in those units. It’s an impossibility.
"Between the floor and the ceiling is like eight or nine feet. There’s no way for you to connect to anything.
"You have sheets, but they’re paper level, not strong enough. He was 200 pounds — it would never happen."
Jeffrey, a former financier with powerful connections across the globe, was in the special housing unit for high-profile prisoners awaiting trial on charges of sex-trafficking underage girls.
Mr Epstein had pleaded not guilty, and if convicted, the 66-year-old would have faced 45 years in prison.
