The New York Medical Examiner's Office released its official autopsy report on financier and accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein on Friday, finding that he died from suicide by hanging.
On Thursday, the Washington Post reported, citing unnamed sources, that Epstein's autopsy had found "multiple breaks in his neck bones," noting that while that kind of damage can be obtained by self-hanging, "they are more common in victims of homicide by strangulation." However, Friday's official report concluded the bones were broken by Epstein kneeling toward the floor with sufficient force to break them, having fashioned a noose from a bedsheet tied to a set of bunk beds, the New York Times reported.
Epstein, 66, died six days ago in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan while he awaited trial on federal sex trafficking charges. Due to his having attempted suicide only weeks earlier and his high profile status, Epstein's death aroused a host of conspiracy theories that he had been murdered by powerful friends who feared he might expose their connections to his alleged pedophilic sex ring in his upcoming trial.
The fear of conspiracy was sufficient to prompt Republican Senators Ron Johnson and Chuck Grassley to pen a letter to Attorney General William Barr earlier on Friday asking that Epstein's full autopsy be released. Barr has pledged that in Epstein's death, “any co-conspirators should not rest easy.”
Epstein's death is the subject of four federal investigations, including the conduct of the guards assigned to him the night of his death.
NBC reported Friday that a mysterious "Epstein associate" had filed for control over the billionaire financier's remains following the autopsy.
I can understand why Epstein would kill himself even though I don’t believe he did.
He lived a life we could only dream of and then he was looking at living in a box for the rest of his life that was smaller than his shoe closet.
From his perspective there really wasn’t much to live for.
Being that this went down in NY, I was anticipating the cause of death to be determined to have been an errant spark in his central fuel tank.
It would be if his pants were down and his ding-a-ling was in his hand. Barring that, I would guess no.
General George Washington made a big mistake by not burning that nest of Tory vipers in New York City to the ground in 1783. The nation has been cursed with that foul pool of traitors since.
Is he going to be buried at sea or cremated?
Exactly! Photos when first discovered.
I really need to see the statement put out by the Chief Medical Examiner’s Office. Does anyone have a link?
Ah. It’s not the fall that kills you, it’s the jerk at the end!
Wondering what he will be wearing?
We live in an age of LIES. The media, politicians, the DOJ, Congress….remember the Kavanaugh hearing? So why are we expected to believe that Epstein committing suicide is the truth….especially with many questions remaining unanswered.
Show us the evidence. That wont happen.
But we are not allowed to be skeptical.
Of course, the medical examiner concluded that Epstein died by suicide. No reasonable medical examiner would conclude otherwise.
The MCC had just one job, and they did it well.
Most suspicious death in custody since Lee Harvey Oswald.
Well yes actually you can but the bulls come in cut you down and beat the hell out of you. You can hang yourself but you can’t hang yourself to death only to the infirmary.
Medical examiners want to live too.
And I have a bridge in Brooklyn I can sell you on the cheap.
lol
yep.
If you call being paid off or threatened to turn the other way “neglect”, well then yes they were “neglectful”
But I don’t think the word is being used in the right context at all to be honest.
this was purposeful
After 4 years the Left has figured out calling President Trump and his supporters racist isn’t working.. Now they are testing out ‘White Supremacist’ and ‘Terrorist’. What’s next?!
