JEFFREY EPSTEIN'S associate Steven Hoffenberg has been found dead in his apartment at the age of 77.
Police suspect he has been dead for a week alreadyPolice were called to Hoffenberg's home in Derby, Conneticut, yesterday by a concerned friend who had not heard from him. But upon arriving, Hoffenberg was found dead lying on the floor of his bedroom.
Police have told DailyMail.com that it is suspected Hoffenberg had been dead for a week already.
Hoffenberg served 18 years in prison for a Ponzi scheme which he claimed Jeffrey Epstein masterminded.
He also briefly funded The New York Post in 1993, ultimately saving it from bankruptcy.
The cause of his death remains unconfirmed, but there are reportedly no signs of trauma to his body.
It has been reported that his body was so decomposed that police believe he had been there for at least a week.
A medical examiner is using dental records to make an official identification.
Hoffenberg's first scandal was in the 1990s when the firm he ran with Epstein - Towers Financial Corp - swindled $460million out of 200 victims.
Since then, he has spent 18 years in prison and attempted to repay his victims and phoned some of them from prison.
