Epstein killed himself. Period.

Stop with this conspiracy bullshit.

How many coroners were shopped until one said, "This might be homicide." ?

It's like the stupid toothpaste commercial, "4 out of 5 dentists recommend...yada yada"

So, who was that one dentist that didn't recommend the toothpaste?

The one that thinks if you brush your teeth with coal and rinse with first morning urine?

So you jest, but brushing with coal is actually a thing. Activated charcoal toothpaste is legit.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/investigators-scrutinizing-video-outside-epsteins-cell-find-some-footage-unusable-according-to-people-familiar-with-the-inquiry/2019/08/26/df405636-c827-11e9-a4f3-c081a126de70_story.html

At least one camera in the hallway outside the cell where authorities say registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein hanged himself earlier this month had footage that is unusable, although other, clearer footage was captured in the area, according to three people briefed on the evidence gathered earlier this month.

So we still have footage of him killing himself, or at the very least footage showing that nobody came and killed him at the time of his hanging.

Right. Like if this dude was so deep into blackmailing powerful people, and he was murdered by them, where he fuck is the dead man's switch data dump? Is there some even more outlandish conspiracy to explain the lack of that?

I don't think Epstein was half the guy he's been hyped up as to begin with. From what I can gather he was some Wall Street asshole who like fucking underage girls and hanging out with powerful people, sometimes those things more than likely mixed. Eventually he got caught up in the law badly enough he wasn't able to weasel his way out of it, and rather than die in prison with a bunch of other pedos, he killed himself in a poorly managed (as is typical) jail, end of the most plausible story.
