Ocasio-Cortez: “We Need Answers” Over Epstein’s Suicide — “Lots Of Them”
Hot Air ^ | August 10,2019 | ED MORRISSEY

Posted on 08/10/2019 2:01:35 PM PDT by Hojczyk

For perhaps the first time this year, I find myself in full agreement with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The circumstances of Jeffrey Epstein’s apparent suicide seem very strange indeed, so much so that it raises all sorts of questions as to what happened, how, and especially why:

Ocasio-Cortez is hardly the only person demanding answers either, as Epstein’s victims have been robbed of their opportunity for justice. Epstein wasn’t just some minor figure sitting in a local lockup who had never sent out any signals of potential self- (or other-directed-) harm. “He was probably the most high-profile inmate” in federal custody in that facility, CNN’s Shimon Prokupecz reminded viewers, one who had apparently attempted suicide once before. Why wasn’t Epstein under 24-hour watch? Paul Callan wonders the same thing:

“It raises a lot of questions in a lot of people’s minds,” CNN’s anchor comments at the end. Indeed it does. This is precisely what “suicide watch” is intended to prevent. Epstein’s victims deserved their day in court against the predator who exploited him, and also their day in court against anyone else who joined in that exploitation. If NBC’s correct, then someone needs to explain why the suicide watch was cancelled on Epstein — including who ordered it and why.

Mz. Cow Fartz is right for once in her undistinguished life.

It is really hard to believe that someone under FedMob indictments on the level that he was had no better protection while in custody.

I smelz a Deep State stink ... similar to boiled cabbage, urine and farts.

AOC, by her youthful inexperience is outraged. Mitch McConnell, Senate insider, will move on and never skip a beat.

There will not be any investigations that reveal anything of substance. End of story.

Answers we shall never get, and even if we did, AO-C would not like them, claiming the allegations were “made up”, and crafted by “enemies to the State”.

AO-C is a great and highly effusive fan and participant in the growth and solid establishment of “The State”.

Social Justice and the Democrat National Socialists Forever! < /sarcasm >

Yep! AOC needs lots of answers... Preferably arranged like a menu so they can be sorted and either used or smeared depending on the occasion or location...

Unfortunately now they have to start killing witnesses and victims who went before grand juries. The civil damages was where the $$$$$$ is. Epstein need not be present for cases against his estate. What is Clintoon & Co. gonna do? There aren’t enough hit men. Also remember Dianna, Fayehd, and the Queen. Erie that Diana’s son was part of this.

She doesn’t care about those other Dems. She is part of a new cabal of leftists who are in the process of replacing them all.

Well, if that is indeed the case, what better way for the AOC branch to take over the party for themselves? If the Democrat Establishment goes under from this, who is left to pick up the pieces?

"Wait til the buffoon finds out all of Epsteins clients were all Democrats"

My hunch is that she knows that and is hoping that causes a ton of them to be forced out only to be replaced by younger hard core socialist types.

Now she’s what? Elliot Ness or J. Edgar Hoover? STFU and give the professionals a chance to look into it.

Stolen from elsewhere:

“So who was the Corrections Officer in charge of Epstein’s suicide watch last night?

Warden: I’m going to fire you for this.

CO Furfante: Yeah, looks like I screwed up big time.

Warden: So what are you going to do now.

CO Furfante: Well there’s little palace in Qatar I was looking at.

Warden: You can’t afford that.

CO Furfante: I can now.”
