According to a former Metropolitan Correction Center (MCC) inmate, there is "no way" registered sex offender and millionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein could have pulled off killing himself in the Manhattan facility. Current Time 0:06 Duration 0:47 Report: Jeffrey Epstein Commits Suicide
"There's no way that man could have killed himself. I've done too much time in those units. It's an impossibility," the former inmate told The New York Post's Brad Hamilton and Bruce Golding on the condition of anonymity.
Epstein was found to have apparently hanged himself on Saturday morning at the MCC facility and was transferred to a hospital in Manhattan where he arrived in cardiac arrest, reports say.
The former convict is highly skeptical of the apparent suicide due to the conditions and precautious nature of MCC. "Between the floor and the ceiling is like eight or nine feet. There's no way for you to connect to anything. You have sheets, but they're paper level, not strong enough. He was 200 pounds it would never happen," he told the Post.
The man explained that inmates on suicide watch are put in a "white smock, a straight jacket."
"They know a person cannot be injurious to themselves," he noted. "The clothing they give you is a jump-in uniform. Everything is a dark brown color."
Could Epstein have had help killing himself from the bed provided in the cell? According to the former inmate, theres not a chance of that, either. "There's a steel frame, but you can't move it. There's no light fixture. There's no bars, he said.
"They don't give you enough in there that could successfully create an instrument of death. You want to write a letter, they give you rubber pens and maybe once a week a piece of paper," the man added. "Nothing hard or made of metal."
NBC reported on Saturday, however, that was Epstein was not on suicide watch at the time of the incident, conflicting with original reports. It's also a curious revelation, since the registered sex offender was found with marks around his neck three weeks earlier, sparking reports of Epstein being on suicide watch. As noted by The Daily Wire's Ashe Schow, it's unclear, however, if the injury to his neck was from a suicide attempt, an attempt to get transferred to another prison, or an attack from another inmate.
The former inmate also said that Epstein was likely alone in his cell. "There's up to 80 people there," he told the Post. "They could put two in cell. It's one or two, but I'll never believe this guy had a cellmate. He was too blown up."
Inmates are treated like animals at MCC, he said, telling the Post he told his parents not to come there because it was so grim.
"But it's my firm belief that Jeffrey Epstein did not commit suicide. It just didn't happen," the former inmate stated.
Conspiracy theories have been circulating online since Epstein's shocking death, many pointing to the large number of powerful people implicated in his case, including high-profile politicians.

At least they didn’t determine the cause of death over the phone and cremate the body before an autopsy could be done......
With all due respect to this INMATE, there's always a way to kill yourself, under any circumstance.
Having said that, he was taken out by the derp state.
Glad I am not the only one. Wouldnt it be simple enough to look into this prison.. let’s just do it the way dems looked into children in cages.
The only thing that would make this more suspicious is if Epsteins body was found at Fort Marcy Park
When I worked for the Georgia Dept. of Corrections, they had a suicidal inmate strapped down to a table. He still managed to kill himself. It can happen.
For others, it would be easy to ‘hang’ himself with just a long sleeve shirt or his pants. You make a loop, hook it over the door handle or a hook on the wall and lean forward. Quickly unconscious and then dead. We had several inmates try this at our prison, but, the officers were doing their job correctly and stopped it.
Then there was the guy who was just trying to mess with the officers (he was a real jerk...personal experience). Tied himself up to “hang” himself and sat on the top bunk in his cell. When the officers came in, he slipped off and almost broke his neck. I think they sent him to a mental health prison after that. I never saw him again. Surprising as he came through 3 times in the 6 years I worked for the DOC.
well, if a convict said it, it must be true. because convicts are so trustworthy, and all . . . .
If it was Arkancide, I’m sure Epstein had a contingency plan to release damaging information on some very powerful people. More Arkancide victims might be popping up very shortly.
“Deep State wet work.”
Prez should fire ‘all that Obama hire’
if the sinister trilaterals we going to whack him, they would have done it before he was in freaking federal custody, and made it look like an accident.
I would like to also add the worst part of this is this IS President Trumps ultimate responsibility. The President should have met with Barr and flat told him nothing better happen to this man or its your a$$. There is NO excuse. The absence of prosecution of the criminal obama administration conspirators as well as the death of a key witness lies wholly on the Trump Administration.
“because convicts are so trustworthy, and all . . “
Someone,someplace,...his killer is already dead too.....
No loose ends permitted !
and his killer
Guy on Rush now is saying the basic thing I am saying here.
Over the phone like Scalia.
In this case id say let the poor bastard have his anonymity
“The only thing that would make this more suspicious is if Epsteins body was found at Fort Marcy Park”
Next to the kiddy swings
“The only thing that would make this more suspicious is if Epsteins body was found at Fort Marcy Park.”
LOL!
I think it’s a question of what is MUCH MORE likely.
And murder is in this case.
Unless you’re the LA Times or AP.
