”Jeffrey Epstein, accused sex trafficker, dies by suicide” – ABC News
One day after unsealed court documents revealed the names of powerful men: former Maine Senator George Mitchell, ex-New Mexico Governor Bill Richardson, money manager Glenn Dubin, MIT professor Marvin Minksy, etc., as participants in the abuse of trafficked girls, reports announce that Jeffrey Epstein is dead of an ”apparent suicide.” Whether or not suicide is the real cause of death remains to be seen.
”Epstein hanged himself, law enforcement sources said. He was transported in cardiac arrest at 6:39 a.m. from Metropolitan Correctional Center to New York Downtown Hospital, according to sources.”~ABC News

Two weeks ago, Epstein, 66, was placed on suicide watch after he was found nearly unconscious in his cell with injuries to his neck.
After he was found two weeks ago, ”semi-conscious” in his cell, with injuries to his neck, Epstein had been placed on suicide watch in his New York prison cell, with 24-hour video surveillance. Will the tapes be released to prove the cause of his death?
This turn of events is preferable to the alternative of a release pending trial, but not an ideal form of closure for the multitude of victims in this story.
Epstein’s case is now conveniently closed, but investigations into his accomplices, the women who acted as recruiters, are ongoing. How will the SDNY handle all the damning evidence implicating so many powerful men now that the central figure is out of the picture? Epstein’s death, and his inability to testify and name names must be a relief for many not yet accused.

A lot from Lydia 
How does this happen? Suicide watch? 24-hour surveillance? Someone blinked and he was gone?

Very convenient and suspicious. If I were his ”friend” Ghislaine Maxwell: ”the lady of the house and madam”, I’d be nervous.

☼ once you’ve seen the list of names in the notebook: none of it seems that strange. One of the people on the list literally dismembered a Washington Post reporter (pretty much) publicly, w/o consequence! In an embassy, not a celll!
This is FAR less than that. No one likes pedophiles & human trafficking – especially when it is true, and not just a smear we are using to discredit someone because no one likes pedophiles & human trafficking.

Suicide? Can’t wait for more details. I so hope there are tapes and that this thing doesn’t just quietly go away.

Whodunnit? So many possibilities.
Barr ordered it for his #1 client; that’s my guess. I also guess he’ll try to shut down the investigation.

Hopefully the evidence won’t be suppressed and it will speak for him.

Bill Barr has to go. 45 is running a mob administration, and what’s infuriating is that at least half the population knows and still we can’t stop it. Epstein was only part of a network. Sex trafficking could have taken a significant hit if he had cooperated.
