Yep, that’s exactly my reasoning, except I don’t really have a problem with the notion of someone managing to snap their neck from the top bunk with a sheet. Rather than a swan dive I think you’d do something more like a cannonball with your knees tucked against your chest. But that’s neither here nor there because it’s slim chances anyone would do that in the first place, not when there’s the less painful option of simply kneeling until you go under. It’s been my default assumption that he committed suicide with the latter method being how he’d do it. So everything was consistent and making sense to me until the examiner came out with broken “boneS”... because now we’ve got broken cervicals assuming she’s being precise with her words. What’s frustrating is that this seems to argue against both kneeling self-strangulation AND his being manually strangled, since it’s doubtful either of these would break more than the hyoid bone. So it kind of leaves things in an unresolved limbo.
It’s been a real sh*t show all the way through. I just don’t see how a person could snap their neck and hyoid. I’ve seen people smash their heads, dive off beds and they’d break bones but not the hyoid. Petechiae mentioned? I guess we’ll never know since med records from an autopsy won’t be revealed?
Aside from the ME report the whole thing stinks to high heaven. Too many “Murphy’s Law” things like no video, off the 1:1 suicide watch, cellmate moved, two( not one) guards sleeping for a period of time, the photo( who and who takes a pic in a high security area in an emergency when cameras are usually[??] removed?
All this to say I’m not buying the Epstein story. I’ve worked high security hospitals and this is the perfect storm if to be believed.
