The final mugshot of disgraced multi-millionaire Jeffrey Epstein was released by officials this week.
Epstein was found unresponsive in a New York City cell last month. Officials later ruled that his cause of death was suicide by hanging.
A charging document said that Epstein had “mental concerns” and “suicidal tendencies” when he was arrested.
It comes as the French National Police, who have already spoken to three alleged victims, appealed on Sept. 11 for more victims and witnesses to come forward regarding the Epstein case.
The Paris prosecutor’s office said that three victims were already interviewed by investigators in August.
Prosecutors have not yet named any suspects. The aim is to uncover any infractions in France as well as on any French victims abroad and to determine whether any French citizens were linked to crimes. A France-based advocacy group, Innocence in Danger, that has also been gathering testimony said it was delighted by the police appeal, calling it proof “that the affair is being taken seriously.”
“It’s necessary and it can perhaps allow people who have things to say, victims and witness, to understand that France is interested,” Homayra Sellier, the group’s president, told The Associated Press.
Meanwhile, an air traffic controller told investigators in July that she saw Epstein getting off his plane “two specific times” with girls “who appeared to be” 11 to 12 years old, the New York Post reported.
She saw him on another occasion with a girl believed to be between 16 and 18 years old. The sightings took place between June and November of last year.
