I worked some prison and jails. They always put this big heavy green thing on you if your on suicide or solitary watch. My question is if Epstein was on watch then how did he suicide?

    The answer is pretty simple actually. When he died, he had just been removed from suicide watch.

    After six days, psychological staff removed Epstein from suicide watch following a psychiatric examination

        Very convenient indeed… and did I mention that the cameras didn’t work that day?

      …on the night he died.

      The night he was garroted?

      This man shot himself 16 times then buried himself in a shallow grave…

        It was shallow because he was bleeding out at the time from all the gunshot wounds, give him a break, he did his best.

    Probably with help from Bill Barr. How many pedophiles does it take to remove the green thing?

    What you should take away from this is not that suicide is difficult in prison, but rather that suicide is so common they have specific policies in place.

    It makes 10000% perfect sense that Epstein would kill himself. He just got busted down to the justice system tier for mortal Americans and his life was over. People killing themselves in this situation is so common that it’s a trope in media.

    The idea that some CIA-Mossad-Legion of Doom joint operation to assassinated him is the claim that’s short on evidence.

      He had blackmail material on politicians, authors, billionaires, thought leaders, presidents and princes. If I was in his place, I’d be sitting pretty comfortably, thinking “there’s no way they can take me down with the justice system without taking themselves down too. I’m too big to fail.” literally the only risk would be being assassinated by those you have blackmail material on.

      how is this not obvious?

        It’s not obvious to people who like evidence. What you describe is called suspicion.

        Suspicion is a reason to start look for evidence, not a reason to stop.

        Your opinion is that secret assassins killed a man in prison. And you aren’t interested or even curious to back that up with anything.

        I’m not going to just buy “secret prison assassins” without any evidence that they even exist. Especially when ‘jailbird kills himself’ is reasonable and likely.

        Exactly, his girlfriend is doing exactly that

      Normally I would agree, but this one does have really strange occurrences. First there is no camera feed, then the camera feed released is strangely missing exactly the time around his death. Like how many strange occurrences does it take for you to say: wait a minute, why is it so hard for them to prove everything happened as they said.

      Naaaahhhh, WAY too many conveniences for it to be anything but an inside job. Sure, the evidence is circumstantial, but people have been put on death row for less.
