Trump lawyer Lin Wood says Jeffrey Epstein still alive in bizarre conspiracy tweets

A conspiracy theory touting lawyer championing Donald Trump's election fraud claims also believes that notorious child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein is still alive.

Lin L. Wood, a lawyer who has represented the Kenosha shooter Kyle Rittenhouse and who has taken up Mr Trump's claims that massive election fraud cost him the 2020 election, made the claim on Twitter without providing any evidence.

Epstein died in prison in 2019 after he was charged with sex trafficking and conspiracy to traffick minors for sex.

Mr Wood's latest bizarre statement was made as part of a layer cake of conspiracy theories; while he was advancing a theory that Chief Justice John Roberts had something to do with the death of Justice Antonin Scalia, who died in 2016.
