People are confusing the meaning of the term “suicide watch.”
Usually it means watching a perp so he doesn’t commit suicide. But when a perp has evidence on politicians and the every rich, it means he is watched until there’s a chance to kill him.
In a former time, I was the attorney that represented several county jails in my state. When an inmate is placed on suicide watch, standard protocol is that nothing is left in their cell that would enable them to harm themselves. That means paper jump suits...very thin fabric bedding that will not support weight ...no hard or sharp objects or objects that can be sharpened. And then eyes on checks every few minutes. So he had to have had help. Standard suicide watch protocol would have prevented this.
