Jeffrey Epstein, the multimillionaire financier indicted on federal sex-trafficking charges, died after he was discovered unresponsive from an "apparent suicide" on Saturday morning in a federal detention center in Manhattan. His death has raised questions about the investigation and its political implications.
Epstein's death comes a day after new documents pertaining to his global sex-trafficking ring were unsealed in court filings on Friday.
On Saturday, Attorney General William P. Barr said he was "appalled" after hearing about the suspect's death and that many questions would need to be answered, according to a Justice Department statement. Barr said he "consulted with the Inspector General who is opening an investigation into the circumstances of Mr. Epstein's death."

Since Epstein is now dead, the criminal case is over, but that doesn't mean all investigations surrounding the allegations will cease, said Paul Butler, a professor of law at Georgetown University and former federal prosecutor.
Attorneys representing some accusers said they too will continue to seek justice.
"There's a whole network that enabled him and allowed this to happen, and it's time that everyone who was a part of this be held accountable," said Kimberly Lerner, an attorney for one of Epstein's accusers.
