Jeffrey Epstein’s former longtime bodyguard has given a paranoid interview saying he believes the billionaire pedophile had help killing himself in jail.
Igor Zinoviev, who is a former UFC fighter, worked as Epstein’s bodyguard and driver for about six years around the time the billionaire pleaded guilty in Florida to soliciting an underage girl for prostitution.
In an interview with New York Magazine following Epstein’s apparent suicide, Zinoviev said he believes the 66-year-old had help ending his life.
Zinoviev also retracted previous comments he had made in 2015 about Epstein’s association with teenage girls and refused to say whether he had been contacted by the FBI in the wake of his death.
‘Somebody helped him to do that,’ Zinoviev said when he was asked what he thought about Epstein’s death in federal custody.
He wouldn’t elaborate on how that might have happened, saying: ‘Listen, you know, that’s going a little too deep’.
