Arkancide, Soroside, or whatever it will be called will occur before his trial date.

I’m surprised he’s not in solitary protection and some LEO getting him on video with his confessions and naming names.

Actually, I’m not surprised considering this is the Totalitarian Deep State - the new “TDS”.

Epstein has gone from living in luxury like a Maharaja with a harem of young babes to concrete jail cell another 11 months to trail will be an eternity.

Hoping that he mentally breaks and spills the beans on his “clients” for a few perks.

He could make a bunch of “suicide” attempts between now and then.

——on charges of sex trafficking-——

Ahhh...... probably lots of first person testimony and evidence.

Proving sex with under age girls is likely more difficult

Ok, OK..... here’s the deal

His lawyers have all his pictures, videos and journals. In the event of his untimely death, it is all to be released into the public domain.

A long time for a guy like that, who's had things his own way, to stay in solitary. For his own protection, of course.

This might be the first “documented” case of suicide by holding one’s breath or self-strangulation.

“I’m surprised he’s not in solitary protection...”

He is in the solitary protected custody wing from what I’ve heard. Especially after the apparent suicide attempt, he should be under 24 hour supervision.
