who he financially supported. But I expect his brother has most of the belongings and the girlfriend had whatever stuff they shared together that she kept.

There was a long piece in the NYT that was republished by a bunch of other media outlets, e.g., the Irish Times, which had this blip (from the NYT) - https://www.irishtimes.com/life-and-style/people/jeffrey-epstein-s-final-days-smirking-he-said-i-am-not-suicidal-and-i-would-never-be-1.4737335

Jeffrey Epstein’s final days: Smirking, he said ‘I am not suicidal and I would never be’

That evening, according to the reconstruction, a unit manager at the detention centre helped Epstein make a “social” phone call. The manager dialed for Epstein and let him speak for 15 minutes. The call was not properly logged and does not appear to have been recorded. It is not clear from the documents whether the call was on a monitored line.

“I asked inmate Epstein who he was calling,” the unit manager wrote. “He stated his mother.”

Epstein’s mother died in 2004. The call was to his 30-year-old girlfriend, Karyna Shuliak, whom he helped put through dental school, said three people with knowledge of the phone conversation. Epstein, they said, gave no indication during the call that he planned to kill himself.

The call that night, however, was not included in the phone logs provided to the Times by the Bureau of Prisons. The logs show only one social call during his stay – more than a week earlier, on July 30th, to Shuliak.

She is one of the largest beneficiaries of several trusts that Epstein set up over the years, according to three people briefed on the matter. Shuliak declined to comment through her attorney, Maurice Sercarz.
