The prison postcard released in the Epstein files, allegedly written by Jeffrey Epstein to Larry Nassar before his suicide, has been ruled as fake by the FBI.
Allegedly written before Epstein’s 2019 jail cell suicide, the contents included a claim that ‘our president’ loves ‘young, nubile girls.’ Donald Trump was the president at the time, although there was no named references to him.
It was released as part of the immense trove of files relating to the disgraced financier’s crimes and subsequent death. The DOJ have been releasing more documents since the deadline last Friday.
Included in today’s drop was the purported postcard – that referenced that Epstein took the ‘short route home’ and wished his fellow pedophile well.
But despite being part of the official governmental document release, the FBI have said that the postcard is bogus, citing handwriting and stamping discrepancies.
The Department of Justice posted just before 3.30pm on Tuesday: ‘The FBI has confirmed this alleged letter from Jeffrey Epstein to Larry Nassar is FAKE.
‘The fake letter was received by the jail, and flagged for the FBI at the time. The FBI made this conclusion based on the following facts.
‘The writing does not appear to match Jeffrey Epstein’s. The letter was postmarked three days after Epstein’s death out of Northern Virginia, when he was jailed in New York.

Epstein’s letter to Larry Nassar, postmarked August 13, 2019, was believed to have been found returned to sender in the New York prison’s mailroom after his death. The FBI have claimed that the postcard is bogus
‘The return address did not list the jail where Epstein was held and did not include his inmate number, which is required for outgoing mail.
‘This fake letter serves as a reminder that just because a document is released by the Department of Justice does not make the allegations or claims within the document factual. Nevertheless, the DOJ will continue to release all material required by law.’
The handwritten note allegedly penned by Epstein read: ‘As you know by now, I have taken the “short route” home.
He continued: ‘Good luck! We shared one thing… our love & caring for young ladies at the hope they’d reach their full potential.
‘Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to “grab snatch,” whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system. Life is unfair.’
The postcard was signed ‘Yours, J. Epstein’ and written to ‘L.N.’, which are Nassar’s initials. Trump has not been accused of wrongdoing in Epstein’s child sex trafficking scandal.
Epstein’s letter to Nassar, postmarked August 13, 2019, was believed to have been found returned to sender in the New York prison’s mailroom weeks later.
Nassar was serving in a facility in Sumterville, near Orlando, Florida, at the time of Epstein’s letter. He was moved from a federal prison in Tucson, Arizona, in August 2018, after his lawyers said he was attacked.
The return to sender stamp noted that the recipient was ‘no longer’ at the address.
