Medical Examiner Confirms Epstein Death a Suicide by Hanging

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


NEW YORK — Jeffrey Epstein’s prison death has been confirmed a suicide by hanging, the medical examiner’s office said Friday.

Epstein, 66, was found dead in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City on Aug. 10, touching off outrage and disbelief over how such a high-profile prisoner, known for socializing with powerful people including presidents Donald Trump and Bill Clinton, could have gone unwatched.

The Bureau of Prisons said Epstein had apparently killed himself, but that didn’t squelch conspiracy theories about his death.

Messages seeking comment were left for Epstein’s lawyers. An office telephone number for Dr. Michael Baden, the pathologist hired by Epstein’s representatives to observe the autopsy, rang unanswered.

Epstein, who was charged with sexually abusing numerous underage girls over several years, had been placed on suicide watch last month after he was found on his cell floor on July 23 with bruising on his neck.

But multiple people familiar with operations at the jail say he was taken off the watch after about a week and put back in a high-security housing unit where he was less closely monitored, but still supposed to be checked on every 30 minutes.

Attorney General William Barr says officials have uncovered “serious irregularities” at the jail. The FBI and the Justice Department’s inspector general are both investigating Epstein’s death.

Jail guards on duty the night of Epstein’s death are suspected of falsifying log entries to show they were checking on inmates every half-hour as required, according to several people familiar with the matter.

A guard in Epstein’s unit was working a fifth straight day of overtime and another guard was working mandatory overtime, the people said. They spoke on condition of anonymity because the lacked authorization to publicly discuss the investigation.

U.S. District Judge Richard Berman, who is in charge of the criminal case against Epstein, asked the jail’s warden this week for answers about the earlier episode, writing in a letter Monday that it had “never been definitively explained.”

The warden replied that an internal investigation was completed but that he couldn’t provide information because the findings were being incorporated into investigations into Epstein’s death.

The Associated Press often does not report details of suicide methods, but has made an exception because Epstein’s cause of death is pertinent to the ongoing investigations.

The Washington Post and The New York Times reported Thursday that the autopsy revealed that several bones in Epstein’s neck had been broken, leading to speculation his death was a homicide.

Chief Medical Examiner Barbara Sampson issued a statement Thursday in response to those articles, saying: “In all forensic investigations, all information must be synthesized to determine the cause and manner of death. Everything must be consistent; no single finding can be evaluated in a vacuum.”

Epstein, 66, was a hedge fund manager who hobnobbed with the rich, famous and influential, including presidents and a prince.

He owned a private island in the Caribbean, homes in Paris and New York City, a New Mexico ranch, and a fleet of high-price cars. His friends had once included Britain’s Prince Andrew, Clinton and Trump. Clinton and Trump both said they hadn’t seen Epstein in years and knew nothing of his alleged misconduct when new charges were brought against him last month.

The medical examiner’s ruling came a day after two more women sued Jeffrey Epstein’s estate, saying he sexually abused them.

The suit, filed Thursday in a federal court in New York, claims the women were working as hostesses at a popular Manhattan restaurant in 2004 when they were recruited to give Epstein massages.

One was 18 at the time. The other was 20.

The lawsuit says an unidentified female recruiter offered the hostesses hundreds of dollars to provide massages to Epstein, saying he “liked young, pretty girls to massage him,” and wouldn’t engage in any unwanted touching. The women say Epstein groped them anyway.

One plaintiff now lives in Japan, the other in Baltimore. They seek $100 million in damages, citing depression, anxiety, anger and flashbacks.

Other lawsuits, filed over many years by other women, accused him of hiring girls as young as 14 or 15 to give him massages, then subjecting them to sex acts.

      How can people who claim to be alt media not know it was not Epstein on that stretcher? How on earth could they have both missed that observation, PLUS miss the fact that others observed and posted it? Alex had that gurney pic on his site yesterday, showing Epstein as “dead”. Epstein is not dead. The grapevine has now stated that Epstein was allowed girls in prison. That’s believable, that can and does happen with permission occasionally even with ordinary people, and if he had girls, there’s no way he offed himself and there’s no way they killed him, he’s out and PROUD. The Gurney pics prove it, if it was not him he’s alive because if he was dead, they’d have shown that. – Jim Stone

      Never Before Have We Seen A Piece of Official “News” So Instantly and Widely Disbelieved As The Epstein Supposed Suicide!

      [so let's get the word out ASAP!]

      1) AG William Barr secretly visited Manhattan jail weeks before Jeffrey Epstein’s death, claims former mobster
      - https://meaww.com/ag-william-barr-secret-visit-jail-jeffrey-epstein-held-two-weeks-before-death-suicide-manhattan-jail

      2) Never before have we seen a piece of official “news” so instantly and widely disbelieved, as the alleged “suicide” of Jeffrey Epstein in USA federal custody. Epstein is a hero in Israel and they would do anything to save him – Epstein’s personal blackmail files – more than 2000 names are there, video, DNA, lots of DNA, the biggest “honey trap” in spy history – his massive blackmail files on Trump, led Attorney General William Barr, working with his lifelong partners at the CIA and Israeli intelligence, to get Epstein to safety. US Attorney General William Barr, was a CIA officer 1973-77 – Barr’s law firm Kirkland Ellis represented Epstein – Bill Barr’s father Donald Barr was born Jewish, converting to Catholicism, and was OSS intel during WW2 – Don Barr hired Epstein to work with him teaching teens 1973-75 – Don Barr was as fascinated with sexual slavery as Epstein:

      3) Prison worker’s 4Chan post 10 minutes before news of Jeffrey Epstein’s death hit media: guy in a green dress military outfit? switched him out? [with a dead lookalike]

      4) From Jim Stone: CNN’s now dead Anthony Bourdain used to fake Epstein on a gurney, for only God knows what reason.
      Do an image search for Anthony Bourdain. You’d swear you image searched Epstein. I was taken aback, he’s damn near a dead ringer.

      BOOOOOMMMM!!!! EPSTEIN IS NOT DEAD, THE GURNEY PICTURES ARE FAKE AND I CAN PROVE IT!
      THEY USED RANDOM TRAINING PHOTOS FOR THE EPSTEIN DEATH HOAX AND ONE OF THEM IS A PHOTO OF EMT’S TRAINING IN A NYFD GARAGE, WHERE THEY PARK THE FIRE TRUCKS. THEY SPLICED EPSTEIN ONTO THE GURNEY IN PLACE OF WHAT WAS PROBABLY A “RESUSCI ANNE” DOLL THAT WOULD BE USED FOR TRAINING. THE ORIGINATED IN AN NYFD GARAGE, AND NOT THE HOSPITAL, WHERE THE NEW YORK POST CLAIMED HE WAS TAKEN.

      5) Let’s be clear about this brazen act of suiciding the most damaging witness in U.S. criminal justice history: It was perpetrated with great purpose and designed to send a HUGE message to every person on the planet, which it did.

      That deliberate message is this:

      The Powers That Be are completely untouchable.
      TPTB can kill or suicide or kidnap anyone in the world.
      No one is outside of their closely monitored territory
      worldwide who cannot be quite easily liquidated.
      And, regardless of who is hit or disappeared, they will never
      be caught or prosecuted.
      TPTB act with total impunity just as they did with 9/11, the
      OK City Bombing, Las Vegas mass shooting, etc.
      They can commit any crime whatsoever, anywhere they so
      choose and cover it up practically forever.
      By neutralizing such a high-profile criminal as Epstein, they
      proved they can eliminate any witness to any criminal conspiracy.
      Message to those who worked with Epstein: You talk, you walk?
      off a plank in the mid-Atlantic.
      Just like they did with the assassinations of JFK, RFK and MLK,
      these top-level perps have sent a message to every leader in every
      sphere of life that no one is beyond their reach.
      Anyone who leaves the Deep State reservation does so on pain
      of death or worse. These are the primary messages of those who
      reside at the very peak of the pinnacle of the pyramid of the
      global power structure.

      Comment by Anonymous:
      The Epstein situation proves, beyond a shadow of a doubt, that the government of the USA can no longer be trusted. It must be desolated and the 72 congressional now in Israel [apparently celebrating the transfer of Epstein to Israel] arrested for treason upon their return to the USA. FURTHERMORE, ALL ELECTED federal officials who have signed or voiced unconditional support for Israel must be stripped of their position and prosecuted for representing a foreign power. It is bad enough that Epstein and the other 49+ similar blackmailing organizations be busted, but that this blackmail is based on torturing and taking the lives of children for this purpose and producing adrenochrome is simply intolerable.

      Comment from Truth Seeker – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ktW60OmUWFM
      ​Israel’s Prime Ministers Who They Really Are? Don’t let their invented Hebrew names fool you. Each and every Prime Minister of Israel comes either directly from Eastern Europe or is removed by one generation therefrom. These Prime Ministers are not leading their “people” in their native land, but rather are part of a European colonial system implanted in the Middle East by Zionists. They are all originally from the dispanded Khazar Khaganate who converted to Babylonian Talmud aka “Judaism” that was incorporated by Russia around 1000AD and the rest fled to Easter Europe.

      David Ben-Gurion – real name David Grün – Ashkenazi Khazar from Poland
      Moshe Sharett – real name Moshe Shertok – Ashkenazi Khazarfrom Ukraine
      Levi Eshkol – real name Levi Shkolnik – Ashkenazi Khazar from Russian Empire
      Yigal Allon – real name Yigal Peikowitz (Paicovich) – Ashkenazi Khazar from Grodno, Russia
      Golda Meir – real name Golda Mabovitch – Ashkenazi Khazar from Kiev, Ukraine
      Yitzhak Rabin – real name Yitzhak Rubitzov – Ashkenazi Khazar from Sydorovychi, Ukraine
      Menachem Begin – real name Menakhem Volfovich – Ashkenazi Khazar from Brest, Belarus
      Yitzhak Shamir – real name Yitzhak Yezernitsky – Ashkenazi Khazar from Ruzhany, Belarus
      Shimon Peres – real name Szymon Perski – Ashkenazi Khazar from Wiszniew, Poland
      Ehud Barak – real name Ehud Brog – Ashkenazi Khazar from Pushelat, Lithuania
      Ariel Sharon – real name Ariel Scheinermann – Ashkenazi Khazar from Brest-Litovsk, Belarus
      Ehud Olmert – ‘kept original foreign name’ – Ashkenazi Khazar from Buguruslan, Russian Empire
      Benjamin Netanyahu – real name Benjamin Mileikowsky – Ashkenazi Khazar from Poland

      These my friends are the 12 false apostles of Satan. Yigal Peikowitz was just acting PM for a few days not officially a Prime Minister. What do they have in common? Foreign names with no relation to historical semite family names. They used biblical first names because they found them in the Tanakh but they had no idea what Sephardic (semite) family names were like so once they invaded the ancient lands of Israel they started to change their family names to the ones historically used by biblical semites. All to disguise the fact they were a foreign people in a foreign land which their ancestors had never set foot before.
      Also note that none of their Prime Ministers are Sephardic (correct term is Seferim or Seferdim which means ‘People of the Book’) that’s because the counter fake state of Israel was created by Satan and spiritually Satan can only have his synagogue do his work Satan can not use the seed of Yisrael (Sephardic) to bring forth his throne in Jerusalem.
      What are the odds you would have all 12 Prime Ministers all being ashkenazi khazars and none being Sephardic (semite)? It’s all so very clear it’s impossible not to see what’s going on. Keep in mind the 666 hexagram on the counter fake State of Israel speaks for itself to whom that flag belongs to.
      More important than exposing Zionism is to expose who are the Zionists they are the counter fake “jews” who would try to establish the throne of Satan in Jerusalem in the last days.
      Revelation 3:9 ‘Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie…’

      Follow-up comment by Truth Seeker:
      …this is most oppressed fact in the world. Unfortunately even among “anti zionists” there’s a complete blackout regarding which is very odd. David Icke and TruNews no one else covers this in “alt news” Ben Nun is one who knows all of this but dare not share the truth. I wonder how why as this is the core of establishing the Zionist World Order and the throne of Satan in Jerusalem. YouTube once they see this gaining like they bury the post although spiritually this gives the post a compound reach as its falls to the ground.

      Jeffrey Epstein Mossad Intelligence Mole is part of the Zionist Takeover of the World!

      People need to realize that the CIA is an EXTENSION of Israeli Intelligence/Mossad, and that the FBI is a subsidiary of the CIA.

      Ex-CIA Steve Pieczenik has been AMAZINGLY truthful about about Epstein and the Mossad Connection – /v3/politics/2019/3126887.html – as has been Robert David Steele as well, unlike Alex Jones. However, both Pieczenik and Steele are misleading the public regarding Donald Trump.
