Hard to argue with that. Barr had to know that very powerful people wanted Epstein dead.

Don't accept the premise that he killed himself and begin arguing if they let him or he pulled off a miracle.

He didn't kill himself.

You're f'ing kidding, right?

And you are here???

Barr did not have Epstein in custody. New York City did.

I thought the idea of refusing bail to Epstein was a ploy to control him by the corrupt New York City political machine, at the time.

Barr had nothing to hang a hat on to protect Epstein.

President Trump did his best by suggesting that it was important to guard Epstein.

I agree. It falls on The Stable Genius, too.

Part of leadership is trusting the folks under you. He has bigger fish to fry than personally intervening in specific criminal’s housing. It’s easy in hindsight to criticize the obvious hit job. What is not clear is why any and all of the officers involved were not punished...

Yup. Pretty much my thought. I suspect strongly that any trial Epstein might have had would have hurt democrat politicians more than republican ones though.

Barr has long been an apologist for the police state so I wasn't really too terribly surprised at Epstein's "suicide".
