Did Jeffrey Epstein Kill Himself?
So the argument is raging right now: was Epstein's suicide actually self-motivated, or murder?
I don't have an answer (you don't either!) so let's look at the facts.
Case for murder:
As a prisoner who had attempted to hang himself 3 weeks ago, not putting him on 24/7 suicide watch is outright criminal negligence on the part of the NYPD. (Edit: I'm wrong, Epstein was being held by Federal Bureau of Prisons. Point applies.)
Epstein was widely rumored to have compromising material including video evidence on the sex crimes (including abuse of children) by many powerful political and business figures
Epstein was also rumored to be an intelligence asset (no visible source of income, lots of travel all over the world)
Case for suicide:
Epstein was never going to see the outside of a prison cell for the rest of his life.
Presumably Epstein was a human being and thus capable of remorse for the monstrous crimes he committed.
Soooooo I got nothin'.
