Jeffrey Epstein kills himself in NYC jail cell.
 
Jeffrey Epstein, accused sex trafficker, dies by suicide: Officials - ABC News

I wonder how this happened?

So much for suicide watch. Show me the body. Maybe it's a ruse and he escaped, with a little help from his friends. Or maybe he was "offed" by people involved in his crimes. The tabloid will have a field day with this one.

Maybe not escape , more like witness protection?

"A gurney carrying a man "who looked like" Epstein was wheeled into New York Downtown Hospital around 7:30 a.m."

Look at the money we saved OH Well

ColdNoMore 08-10-2019 09:29 AM

There's a lot of rich and powerful men...breathing a huge sigh of relief this morning.

And for those who are trying to imply a specific political bent to his personal associations...you really should do some research. :oops:

Epstein was a child predator and that type of abomination...doesn't care what letter is in front of your name.

ColdNoMore 08-10-2019 09:35 AM

IF DOJ is allowed to do their job, I wouldn't be surprised to find some prison officials were paid big money...to look the other way.

Kenswing 08-10-2019 09:47 AM

An all too common result when you have dirt on the powerful elite..

Chi-Town 08-10-2019 09:55 AM

His world has come to an end anyhow.

For some reason, I find it difficult to cry.

Thoughts and prayers, I guess?

manaboutown 08-10-2019 11:40 AM

I just wonder how many powerful people are breathing a sigh of relief?

He probably has family somewhere that are devastated.
Yes, thought and prayers for his family,
And as Velvet said, for his victims. :pray:

Yep, to late for him to sing now. Lots of powerful folks happy.

He was supposedly on suicide watch, so I think you're right.

There is a real stench here, that I'm guessing will be allowed to just slowly fade away without true justice being served on the scumbags...associated with this piece of trash. :mad:

His 'beyond a sweetheart deal' on his previous Florida conviction...says everything.
:ohdear:

Kenswing 08-10-2019 12:19 PM

It appears he was taken off suicide watch. How convenient.. The Latest: Source: Epstein had been taken off suicide watch

I think Witness Protection might not be a bad guess either..

Of course it will. Too many power players involved.

Sad but also true. Hopefully, this will be some closure for them

From the New York Times...

"But one federal prison official with knowledge of the incident said Mr. Epstein had been taken off suicide watch a few days ago, and was being held alone in a cell in a special housing unit."


Here is the entire article explaining suicide watch: Not Found - The New York Times

manaboutown 08-10-2019 04:17 PM

The witness disposal program effectuated its goal in the nick of time!

Northwoods 08-10-2019 07:31 PM

His suicide saved taxpayers a lot of money. I'm sure this isn't the "closure" his victims wanted, but they will sue his estate and walk away with a nice chunk of money.

manaboutown 08-10-2019 10:31 PM

This is a speculative and potentially misleading headline as the jury is still out on how he died. It is likely he was killed to keep him from testifying about just who joined him in his criminal misadventures.

WOW! Talk about speculation. "It is likely" comment is purely an opinion. I am certainly concerned that if a prisoner is found dead, just as I was concerned that Whitey Bulger was killed. Not that I liked either one, but I don't think anyone here is able to give any reason that could be called "Likely".

Is it possible that he committed suicide, Yes. Is it possible that he was killed by another way , Yes.

Likely, probably is what we have heard from sources. Other than that is more speculative.

Bay Kid 08-11-2019 06:01 AM

Saving taxpayers tons of money.

skip0358 08-11-2019 06:06 AM

This story stinks so much I could smell it when I went out to get the paper this morning!

Bill32 08-11-2019 08:07 AM

The rich , connected and powerful skate again.....yes my opinion...not only the victims needed justice the perpetrators need to pay for their crimes.......

You are right. I loathe this kind of perversion and I don't know if the conspiracy theories are true, but now we won't know a lot of things we might have known, although most of us think we know what we might have known.

Here is another whole issue that when genetics can screen for this we will face.

No one has ever heard an expectant mom at her baby shower say that she was hoping for a baby who was a pedophile or had gender problems. Some day science will be able to pin point this. Life is more complex and worrisome and unsettling the more we unlock of knowledge. Sometimes there are no good answers for many complex problems.

collie1228 08-11-2019 08:21 AM

No matter what you think of this pervert or the case in general, you can't deny that people rightly think the whole situation is fishy. Getting the FBI involved should shine some light on it. At the very least there was tremendous negligence involved by prison guards and officials.

bagboy 08-11-2019 08:44 AM

There has to be alot of people who worked for Epstein that aided and abetted in his evil doings for many, many years. And most likely their motivation was money. Hopefully, they will be identified and brought to justice along with the celebrity pedophiles who were involved in these crimes.

For all the goods the FBI is going to uncover, they might as well use Community Watch.:ohdear:

I was wondering when they’re on suicide watch, what exactly were they watching for. If he was going to, or how can they help.

What is interesting is that the prominent people poopooing a conspiracy are the most likely conspirators.
