Jeffrey Epstein's former butler has said that the paedophile financier 'loved life too much' to kill himself in his first public interview.
Valdson Viera Cotrin, who ran Epstein's home in Paris, told The Telegraph that he had spoken to his former employer before he died and claimed he had been in good spirits.
Epstein was found hanged in his cell on August 10, 2019, just weeks after being arrested in New York and charged with sex trafficking underage girls.
But Mr Cotrin, who has remained loyal to his former boss, has insisted Epstein would never have killed himself and revealed that his employer had told him he was planning to negotiate with the judge in the case to secure bail.
'I don't believe this was suicide. He loved life too much,' Mr Cotrin said.
