Tell that to Jean-Luc Brunel.

The "sex stuff" is doing A LOT of heavy lifting here.
Sure? He didn't kill himself because people found out, but because he was faced with spending the rest of his life in prison.
Epstein & company were involved probably in Iran Contra, arms deals in Angola and mysterious transactions involving human trafficking:

$1 billion for trafficking would be 100,000 trafficking victims at a rate of $10,000 per victim, which is claimed by LLMs and some Internet sites. It does not make sense and looks like another operation where ironically the trafficking was the cover.
In other words, we know nothing about the real dynamics that led to the "suicides" of Epstein and Brunel.
IIUC: Brunel was into underage girls and intelligence agencies cannot employ kids..
