I don't think people should jump to conclusions, broken bones in the neck is common with people that hang themselves.

If nothing else the percentages show how wrong the "Yes" votes might be. As Humans we are supposed to actually use fuzzy logic and whatever facts we have to make guesses. The neck bone thing is not 100%, but according to some studies it's 90% (some say 94%, some say 75%)......that, at least, says "hey, something fishy MIGHT have went on here"...

That's not a conspiracy. That's a best guess.

This is the problem with our system....we let the Wolf self-regulate on Wall Street. We say that LE should be believed because, after all, they have a badge and would never lie. We let the DOJ...be the babysitting for a guy that probably has dirt on dozens of government or ex-government officials.

We need Batman on the job.

That could be the hyoid—which is normal in strangulation by hands from what I understand
Don’t know about methods like rope hanging/executions or the slow suffocation route which is supposedly what Epstein used
it's hard to believe the slow strangulation route would lead to broken bones.

if they jumped off a chair or something, maybe. the kind of slow strangulation that supposedly happened here? i don't buy it.

Epstein probably killed himself because it was his best option. I think given the choice to do myself in or wait for someone else to do it, I'd take the first one. So convenient the guards were asleep and his cell mate was transferred the day before and no new cell mate brought in. He was given a nice little window of time and privacy allowing for him to complete the deed.

Otherwise, someone did it for him. Either way, it seems it had to happen.
Also, I have read that the bed in his cell was a bunk bed, meaning he had a fairly high point to attach the bed sheet. It appears to me that somebody in that jail wanted Epstein to commit suicide.

The autopsy has not been made public, yet.

There are reports of broken bones in the neck not uncommon to a hanging of a man this age. Broken bones are also indicative of a potential homicide. Nothing has yet been confirmed.

No information on the investigation of 7/2403 Epstein incident has been made public, let alone Epstein’s death.

Don’t let that stop you from speculation on unconfirmed information.

And to think of all the cellmates he could of gotten, he gets the incredible hulk who attacks him. But were supposed to think nothing of it???

This is just all a little too much convenience of coincidence for me.

Speaking of flames..
Quiet?

He had no problem retweeting a comedian’s tweet implying Epstein had been murdered by the Clintons.

This is one of the most irresponsible communications from this POTUS to date and I say this as someone not particularly fond of the Clintons.

Autopsy has not been made public and no information has been confirmed.

Broken bones are consistent of a hanging of a man this age. It is also consistent with a homicide.

Had a neighbor in his 50’s who hanged himself a few years ago. He broke his neck in the process.

I prefer to wait for the release of the autopsy conclusions than rely on unconfirmed information.

That's because a true hanging breaks the entire neck. This was not that as the neck wasn't broken.
