It sure was convenient for a lot of high profile people that this guy is dead.

The cameras happened to malfunction on that day... guy got taken off suicide watch. Also his cell mate was an ex-cop who looks like he could snap people in half without trying. I mean come on.




Former cellmate; Epstein had no cellmate at the time of his death.


What happened when they were cell mates is pretty curious.

Certainly seems like the previous suicide attempt was really a failed hit.


I'd follow what the ex-cop's eventual sentence is. If he completely skates, surely something is up.


Exactly. I find it rather plausible that those in power with something to lose created the circumstances (like malfunctioning cameras) and incentives (like putting him with a real bad cell"mate", with the suggestion he'd share the rest of his life with such people) to drive him into and enable his suicide instead of just whacking him outright, at least at this stage.


Didn't know that about the cellmate. Apparently he was an ex-cop who killed 4 people in solitary confinement.


he killed four people on the outside, which is why he’s jailed
