Why Is the Epstein Client List Still Secret?

The FBI says Epstein “killed himself”—but insider Mike Benz and a former mob boss just blew that story wide open.

The conversation between Mike Benz and former mob boss Michael Franzese kicked off with a jolt.

Right out of the gate, Michael Franzese made it clear: he doesn’t buy the official Epstein suicide story—not for a second.

Franzese, who served time on the same tier as Epstein in federal lockup, says the layout alone makes the story unbelievable.

“I was on the exact same tier, in the exact same cellblock that Epstein was,” he said.

“There’s NO WAY in my estimation that that guy committed suicide.”

He walked through the reasons one by one.

“No way. Cameras don’t go out all at once. People don’t stop walking the tier. There’s no method in there to commit suicide, to hang yourself like he did.”

“You couldn’t do it,” he said.

“You just couldn’t do it.”
