Jeffrey Epstein Commits Suicide in Cell (See Staff Post)
- Thread starter RDreamer
- Start date
While a life sentence for this is indeed crazy, I find it hard to sympathize with the guards at this prison if they do get jail time for being negligent with Epstein. As per this article:
guards working in MMC are responsible for some terrible human rights abuses at this prison, including sadistically inflicting punishment on prisoners for making the smallest mistakes. Prisoners have been beaten to death there by guards.
Yes, because the word "conspiracy" does not make those 2 things equal... obviously.
So you think the chief psyhologist got paid to put him out of suicide watch, as he's the only one who could do it? Don't you think it's a risky move with no guaranteed pay-off?
Is there any proof of that or are we gonna put this guys character and professionalism in question?
I mean you're implying that this guy got money in exchange of killing a person.
I don't think this is how real life works, if you get offered money to let a dude die in real life you call the police. And with a big case like this you call your friends as well, and maybe the media. But what you don't do is accept this crazy deal. Which I don't think anyone would be that crazy to offer anyway
So no, I don't think anyone got paid to either kill him or let him die
Yeah, no one else has to physically kill him for their to be a plot to have him die before trial. He was suicidal.
It sounds like he was removed from Suicide Watch, placed in a cell alone, with patrolling officers who ultimately broke protocol. If ANY of this was intentional so that he'd have more opportunities to kill himself, then you've got your conspiracy. It's not that deep.
I think people have gotten too used to "conspiracy theories" being laughably complex and coordinated plots to the point where we are programmed to think conspiracies don't happen at all.
Obviously "getting paid to do X" would be the guaranteed pay-off.
Besides, people do risky stuff all the time. After Epstein got the first pedo charges he wasnt even hiding the fact that he was flowing underage girls to his island. Vanity Fair had a story about how the workers at the airport were wondering how he has the balls to do it in daylight.
I dont think you need to be Alex Jones to understand that this suicide is suspect af and extremely convenient.
There are literally hit men in the world who kill people for money. Like that's their job.
The thing about this is that there are so many angles that could lead to this man's death that even if the simple cold hard truth about his death were laid bare you'd still have a number of people either questioning it or outright rejecting it.
Yeah and I'm sure one could sneak into the MCC and off the guy....
The dude hanged himself.
What does what Epstein did have to do with the fact that the Head Psychologist would do a "risky thing", like kill one of his patients?
Can you guys see that without any proof this is clearly in the conspiracy theory territory?
I honestly think he did hang himself, but was probably nicely asked to do so or they would see to his death in prison later by hiring some gang. So with it being inevitable might as well take the quick exit and shield your pedo friends.
A suicide can still be externally motivated or encouraged which I'm sure is what happened here

Wait, are you arguing that, in the real world, all doctors are against giving misdiagnosis for personal gain?
Well, people SHOULD skeptical by default. It would be nice if would could trust authorities to investigate impartially, but since we can't, so here we are.

The fact that "not all doctors are 100% clean" has nothing to do with this case. This is an absurd argument
I think it's absurd to say that 'in the real world' doctors don't take bribes and to use such a demonstrably false notion as the basis of your conclusion.
Whether or not that happened here... Who knows atm. But Authorities should definitely be investigating the circumstances surrounding him being taken off of suicide watch.
How is it absurd to be skeptical? If there was some impropriety in this regard, we wouldn't know immediately after this guy died and we'd never know it if isn't investigated.

Conspiracy theory or not, are you serious with this?
You really think this doesn't happen with Billionaires/Millionaires? That horrible people with money don't "off"/"get rid of" problems?
People hire hit-men for less offenses.
If someone offers a guy $30 Million (no idea what the amount would be) dollars to off a Pedophile, you think he (or many other people) would go...."Nah, I think I'll call the cops."
After having seen some "Fresh out" episodes on YT, there was no need to hire anyone. It seems it's prison politics when they put another inmate in his cell that inmate has to handle business or that inmate get's problems himself with other inmates! Wardens are aware and probably didn't care.
Like you said, people have been know to do shit like this for less... A quick Google search would net you a handful of doctors charged/convicted of conspiracy to commit murder, run drug rings, or massive insurance fraud - all from 2019.
Its absurd to criticize skepticism based on the notion that "people don't really do these things "

Said with a wink and a nod.
He's part of an administration that's pretty close to this. He wasn't issuing a warning. He was giving a heads up.
Part of me wants to believe that there's a chance that Barr at least draws a line at looking the other way with pedos. Of course, it's nice to want things.
Not posting the tweet source because it could derail, but this is totally feeding into conspiratorial thought. Why not just get a regular doctor, and not the dude who is the Forest Gump of forensic pathology. If there's still an Epstein camp out there, they are tryin some shit.
I have no faith in our justice system.
And with Trump as President, I have no faith in our government.
Trump has a mobster mentality and he admires dictators, oligarchs and acts of absolute power.
Nothing would shock me with his being involved, either directly or indirectly.
As we've seen with Michael Cohen, there are a lot of pathetic people who will do stuff to help Donald Trump for a return favor of some sort.

Epstein's lawyers hired Baden to observe because they're probably going to sue the government for wrongful death on behalf of Epstein's estate.

LOL THAT HISTORY THEY'RE NOT EVEN TRYING THIS COUNTRY IS CORRUPT AS FUCK
This is why "skepticism" is usually a disingenuous label for those who really just want to push conspiracy theories. A private pathologist observing an autopsy performed by the ME is met with "SEE I KNEW IT!" It's just multiple attempts at uninformed jumps to a conclusion you've already settled on every time someone tweets something. It's a real time Gish gallop. The data is all shaped and re-contextualized to fit the result you want over and over.
That's not the doctor working for the government.
That's the doctor hired by Epstein's estate.
It doesn't help that the guy in question is (apparently) a participant in the two most widely believed conspiracy theories in American history, the assassinations of JFK and MLK. Like what even is a normal reaction to this situation. It's insane.

Maybe he's a highly respected and well known pathologist which is why he's involved in all of these cases?
Probably not that good judging by his Wikipedia page
Edit: it looks like I was looking at the wrong wiki page earlier.The person I was looking at had several complaints about his work and at least 1 lawsuit against him.
He's definitely well known. Pretty sure he had a show called "Autopsy" on HBO way back in the day
Why the heck was it not raided when they went after the other places? Were they just being polite or something?
