Kristin Roman And The Medical Examiners Report Into Epstein's Death

Kristin Roman, a medical examiner with the New York City Office of Chief Medical Examiner, participated in the forensic review of Jeffrey Epstein’s death and helped document the physical findings observed during the autopsy. The report detailed the injuries identified on Epstein’s body, including ligature marks around the neck and fractures to structures in the neck consistent with hanging. Roman and the medical examiner’s office concluded that the pattern of injuries, combined with the circumstances inside the cell, supported a determination that Epstein died by suicide through hanging while in federal custody at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in August 2019.The medical findings described how Epstein was discovered unresponsive in his cell and later pronounced dead after attempts at resuscitation failed. The autopsy documented the condition of the ligature, the position of the body when he was found, and the internal injuries associated with the neck compression. Based on the totality of the forensic evidence—external marks, internal fractures, and the absence of injuries typically associated with a struggle—the medical examiner’s office ruled the manner of death a suicide. Roman’s report formed part of the official medical record used to support that conclusion.to contact me:[email protected]:EFTA00063517.pdf
