Rep. George Santos, R-N.Y., in reacting to Ghislaine Maxwell being placed on suicide watch in a 2020 interview, said he previously met Jeffrey Epstein, whom he believes was 'murdered.'

Photo from 2001 that was included in court files shows Prince Andrew with his arm around the waist of 17-year-old Virginia Giuffre who says Jeffrey Epstein paid her to have sex with the prince. Andrew has denied the charges. In the background is Epstein's girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell.

Epstein was charged in Manhattan federal court in July 2019 with the sex trafficking of a minor. He was later found dead in August 2019 in his New York City cell"I just have a feeling we’re going down the same path as Epstein, and we’re gonna kill and silence a lot of justice by allowing this woman to be murdered," Santos continued in the 2020 interview. The host then said he personally believed Epstein could still be alive and was secretly granted immunity.
