Good evening and welcome to the Independent Republic of Mike Graham. You're with talk. We're on TV. We're on radio, we're online and of course, we're on your smart speaker as well. Coming up, Jeffrey Epstein's only living relative who's close enough to him

makes the incredible claim that he was killed in prison in a blockbuster exclusive interview with Talk TV.

Former post office boss, Paula Vennels, has finally said she will hand back the CBE

after over a million people called for it in a petition.

And the BBC Blunders department continues.

BBC sport eralinating viewers like never before.

Now let's start tonight's show with that breaking news.

In a Talk TV blockbuster exclusive,

the brother of convicted Peter Fowl financier Jeffrey Epstein told Talk TV he believes

Epstein was murdered by a powerful contact with a vested interest in keeping him quiet.

Mark Epstein is the only living relative of Jeffrey. Here's what he had to say.

Well, first, the actual pathologist who did the autopsy did not determine it was a suicide.

They couldn't.

They said it looked more like a homicide.

But on the initial death certificate, on the cause of death, it said pending, meaning pending further investigation, which is proper.

And then a few days later, Bill Barr claims it was a suicide. And then a few days later, you know, Bill Barr claims it was a suicide.

And then the chief pathologist of New York, who did not see the body, claims it's a suicide.

So the point, the question becomes, what investigating was done in a matter of days to make them come out with that determination. And it

turns out that because it was called a suicide, it doesn't seem to have been a investigation.

Because if you declare somebody died by suicide, there's really nothing to investigate.

You know, the only questions about a suicide is how did they do it? Did they hang themselves? Did they shoot themselves? Did they jump out of a window?

And that's a pretty obvious answer at the time of the death.
