The Department of Justice on Tuesday released nearly 30,000 pages of documents related to disgraced late financier Jeffrey Epstein . This is the latest batch of documents to be released since the DOJ began publishing files on Dec. 19. The files include a number of revelations, including a psychological assessments from Epstein's time in prison, a fake passport and his cellmate's testimony about witnessing the financier's first apparent suicide attempt. The newly released pages also include a claim made by an unidentified Epstein accuser who said that former President Bill Clinton's name was used as a way to deter her from coming forward. Here are some of the top takeaways. A Bureau of Prisons psychological assessment released Tuesday by the DOJ showed Epstein was considered to be at "low" acute suicide risk and showed no signs of suicidal ideation just days before his death, according to internal prison records. The suicide risk assessment, conducted on July 9, 2019, states Epstein was placed on precautionary psychological observation due to the high-profile nature of his case and not because he expressed intent to self-harm. "Inmate Epstein adamantly denied any suicidal ideation, intention or plan," the chief psychologist wrote in the assessment. The psychologist noted Epstein appeared "polite, calm, and cooperative" during the evaluation, with "organized and coherent" thoughts and no signs of acute psychological distress. Additionally, the psychologist documented Epstein saying that "being alive is fun," describing himself as a banker with a "big business," and expressing confidence in his legal defense. The report concluded that "the Overall Acute Suicide Risk for this Inmate is: Low," and, "A suicide watch is not warranted at this time."
