Jeffrey Epstein’s cellmate claims paedophile was offered freedom to implicate Trump


The cellmate of Jeffrey Epstein has claimed the deceased sex trafficker was offered freedom by prosecutors if he implicated Donald Trump.

Epstein shared a cell with ex-cop Nicholas Tartaglione after he was transferred to Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Centre in 2019.

The New York Post obtained the ex-cop’s claims from a pardon application filed in July.
“Prosecutors… told Epstein that if he said President Trump was involved with Epstein’s crimes, he would walk free in a petition to be pardoned,” Tartaglione’s pardon application read.

“Epstein told me that [lead prosecutor] Maurene Comey said that he didn’t have to prove anything, as long as President Trump’s people could not disprove it. According to Maurene Comey, the FBI were ‘her people, not his [President Trump’s].’”
