Everything We Know About Jeffrey Epstein

This is a summary. of what is known.

Some sources indicate that Epstein was held by the feds, and other sources seem to point to a local jail.

There should be camera or cameras, apparently, and the suicide should be/is recorded. If so, there will be no question how he died.

People are free to hate the Clintons, but freely disseminating that they are responsible without evidence is surely slander.

Right now we know very little except that Epstein is dead.

I Hazzard to guess if people who voted YES were asked, do you really seriously think it wasn't just a simple suicide by someone who realized he would never walk free, that they would say NO.
I agree. We are in a post-truth era where facts don't matter. The truth is Epstein likely did off himself not wanting to go to trial due to his past and how it went the last time. There is no way he would get a truly fair trial.

It was a failure of the MCC to make sure this guy stayed alive. People will be in trouble.

The fact that somebody "suicided" him once but failed was scandalous! This man should be better guarded and protected than the US President. The number of powerful people this man had the goods on was staggering and powerful people shouldn't just get away with raping underage girls. The fact anyone got another crack at "suiciding" Epstein after the first failed attempt is mind-blowing! Nobody can be that incompetent on purpose. The fact that the cameras "malfunctioned" is the nail in the coffin folks. This man was murdered to shut him up. Now the only question is, "Will they get away with it??" Unfortunately, the most likely answer is, "Yes." This guy was as good as dead the moment he went to a real prison and we're about to see Ted Kennedy levels of accountability over his murder.

Of course Epstein committed suicide. Billionaires don't do well in jail at all, and they know it.

I would normally agree that it might not be, or that the AG cannot reasonably check on every suicide watch....but given that *this* particular prisoner had ties to both past and current presidents, I'd think the AG would *make* it a priority to personally check.

The other men involved. Did you forget about them?

If it's true that Epstein left behind a whole bunch of photos, vids, and docs, those other guys can still be called to account.

It would be a novel legal theory that if the main offender is dead, you can't prosecute anyone else involved. Sex with teenagers is AGAINST THE LAW. Regardless of who introduces them to you.

Barr doesn't seem to be the micro manager type. It's just ridiculous to think that he was bird dogging this at all when there are umpteen levels of management between him and the prison staff. The MCC f'd this up.

Especially given that Barr has his job because his predecessor once cut a sweetheart deal for Epstein.

But - who knows what he was thinking.
