Marc Fernich expressed his anger in a personal statement saying he is outraged at Epstein’s death and put the blame on prosecutors, judges and the press. In the statement, which he said did not reflect the views of the defense team as a whole, Fernich demanded “a full investigation into the circumstances surrounding Mr. Epstein’s death.”

Marc’s prominent client was arrested in July 2019 on charges of *** trafficking and conspiracy to engage in *** trafficking. He was believed to be running a ***-trafficking network and was awaiting trial in a New York prison when he died of apparent suicide.
