While the notion of Epstein as a "spy" has long run rampant in the rumor mill, the book "Epstein: Dead Men Tell No Tales" – authored by Dylan Howard, Melissa Cronin, and James Robertson – proclaims that he had ties to Mossad, the Israeli national intelligence agency.

"When we set out to write a book about his crimes, we thought we knew the whole story. Before long, however, what we uncovered was compelling evidence that Jeffrey Epstein was a spy—largely for Israel's Mossad—and allowed to operate in the United States seemingly without consequence," Dylan Howard told Fox News. "This is a much bigger story than the world has ever known and is continually being ignored or glossed over in much of the new reporting about Epstein."

Epstein himself was purportedly known to tell others that he "had dirt on powerful people," raising red flags as to whether prominent individuals were either lured into his illicit sex ring and then forced to pay up or keep quiet.

[US Attorney] Acosta, who resigned amid the firestorm, later said he was told to back off as Epstein's deal was being forged because the disgraced financier "belonged to intelligence," the Daily Beast reported.

Fox News could not independently verify the spy claims set out in the book.
