Jeffrey Epstein Autopsy Report Shows Broken Neck, Washington Post Says Reuters NEW YORK - An autopsy of the financier Jeffrey Epstein, who died in an apparent suicide while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges, found his neck had been broken in several places, the Washington Post reported late Wednesday. Such injuries can occur to people who hang themselves or who are strangled. The newspaper cited unidentified sources familiar with the autopsy's results. Epstein, a multi-millionaire and convicted sexual offender, was found dead in his jail cell Saturday in New York City. The circumstances of his death are under investigation, and it was unclear when a report of the autopsy would be made public. A representative of the New York Medical Examiner's office did not immediately respond to requests for comment. .
