South Park creators rewrite Book of Mormon to add grisly Epstein joke

The creators of South Park say they've spent three months to work a grisly Jeffrey Epstein joke into their Broadway hit Book of Mormon.

A revised section of a recent showing of The Book of Mormon saw the show creators, Matt Stone and Trey Parker, poke fun at the convicted pedophile. The pair revised the Spooky Mormon Hell Dream song, which sees the main character haunted by the likes of Genghis Khan and Adolf Hitler.

Stone and Parker revised the song for its recent 15th anniversary, replacing serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer with Epstein, The Daily Beast reported. After a recent performance, Stone took to the stage and said, "I want to talk about that Jeffrey Epstein joke, is what I want to talk about."

Parker added, "You guys were the first to see the Epstein joke tonight. We spent three months on the rewrite, and it was finally here tonight." Stone and Parker both made their thoughts on Donald Trump's administration clear in episodes of their award-winning comedy, South Park.

Late last year, Parker and Stone found themselves facing off with the Trump administration and bracing for a lawsuit after the latest season of South Park took brutal jabs at Trump, including showing him in a relationship with Satan.

"At the same time, Parker and Stone are clearly looking to the future, including their continuing fight on behalf of freedom of speech (when, late in the episode, Jesus declares: 'Go ahead and sue me, I’m not going to be afraid any more,' it’s clearly Stone and Parker making a stand)," The Guardian reported.
