Case Notes

Physician and longevity author; 1,700+ DOJ document mentions, apologized for emails

INTELLIGENCE SUMMARY

Dr. Peter Attia, a physician specializing in longevity medicine, terminated or resigned from multiple professional positions following the release of Epstein files containing email exchanges between them. Attia resigned from his CBS News contributor role on February 23, 2026, after his name appeared over 1,700 times in the released Epstein documents. He also stepped down from positions at AGI (a supplement company where he was scientific advisor) and David (a protein bar maker where he was chief science officer). Attia apologized for the 'embarrassing, tasteless, and indefensible' emails but denied any involvement in criminal activity or sexual abuse, stating he never visited Epstein's island or attended sex parties. He characterized his resignation from CBS as voluntary, stating he wanted to ensure his involvement didn't distract from the network's work.
