New Details From Government Autopsy Make Jeffrey Epstein "Suicide" Story Even More Implausible

The New York City Medical Examiner has done an autopsy on the body of Jeffrey Epstein, who was locked up in the Federal Government dungeon in lower Manhattan called, in what sounds like a tribute to the "Newspeak" in George Orwell's dystopia political novel "1984," the "Metropolitan Correctional Center." All the elements of the power establishment, including of course "the" media, want us to believe that Epstein committed suicide.

Which I could have believed, if they'd only been more assiduous at hiding certain physical facts that causes the suicide story to strain credulity.

First there was the information that Epstein's neck bones were broken. If you blinked, and didn't scour media relentlessly to come across it, you would have missed this.

Now we're told that Epstein tied a bedsheet to the top bunk in his cell, and then "knelt" to hang himself. In other words, he was standing up, then crouched down, killing himself.

I can believe it is possible to choke or strangle oneself to death in this manner, although I think it would be difficult to control the automatic responses of one's own body, such as reaching with the hands, or rising with the legs. But breaking neckbones? And Epstein wasn't a slender guy. He didn't have an extremely thin neck, say.

This information slipped out in the fourth paragraph of a Wall Street Journal story. Here is the paragraph in its entirety:

"Early findings by authorities indicated Mr. Epstein hanged himself by using his bed sheet, according to people familiar with the investigation. [So-called investigation, actually a cover-up.] Authorities [whoever they are] believe he tied the bed sheet to the top bunk of his bunk bed, then knelt forward to the floor, one of the people said." [My emphases.] [1] 

They BELIEVE? Didn't they find his dead body? Wouldn't the bedsheet still be tied around his neck and to the bunk if he'd killed himself?

And he knelt forward to the floor. From a standing position, presumably. How would that have fractured his neck bones?

It wouldn't have.

The article didn't mention the broken neck bones. If you want to find out about reality from the U.S. power structure's media, you have to act like a detective and hunt around for clues in various disparate sources and then assemble the pieces like you're doing a jigsaw puzzle. Our rulers count on most people having neither the time nor the motivation to do that, especially for EVERY SINGLE EVENT. And the events they completely black out are another challenge, because you may have never heard of them.

The article also quotes the city's chief medical examiner, Barbara Sampson, as officially concluding "in a brief statement" that Epstein's demise was suicide, without any details, after in her words "careful review of all investigative information." I.e. taking at face value what the Federal prison told her. Which would be all the "investigative information" she had at this point. And calling it "investigative information" is just dishonest. It's really public relations spin.

And Sampson's "review" couldn't have been very thorough, as there wouldn't be much to review. The various Federal "investigations" (at least 3 have been announced!) have just begun, yet the ME has already reached a conclusion! Barely a week since Epstein's death. A rush to judgment, for sure.
By the way, bogus autopsies are routine in nations that commit political assassinations. They go with the territory. We had a lulu of a fraudulent military autopsy in the JFK murder by the CIA. That one was done by an officer who didn't even perform autopsies! And who somehow missed the giant exit wound in the back of JFK's skull that all the surgeons who examined him at Parkland Hospital in Dallas described on film.

There still has never been an explanation of what occurred in July, when Epstein was "found" in his cell, unconscious, with "marks" on his neck. The "authorities" never said it was a suicide attempt. It was all very murky. Sometimes "the" media described it as a suicide attempt, but government officials never said that.

So what was it? An attack by another inmate? By a guard? An incompetent assassin? What kind of "marks" were they? What did Epstein say about it?

Nothing. Just the sound of crickets from "the authorities" and "the" media.

He was briefly put on suicide watch after that, but almost immediately taken off it. So "the authorities" apparently DIDN'T think it was a suicide attempt! Or else they are grossly feckless, negligent, and incompetent. (A possibility that we cannot rule out, thus confusing matters further.) But in the highest-profile case such as this one, with daily saturation media coverage, how could it be that the Federal government could be so inept? They surely were paying very special attention to Epstein!

But you're just a loony conspiracy theorist if you don't swallow the official guff from government officials being shoveled at you daily and around the clock by "the" media. I guess that makes Epstein's lawyers crackpots, since according to the same WSJ article, they don't accept the ME's "findings," and want to obtain video from the Federal dungeon. Good luck with THAT. The longer the Government stalls releasing that footage, the more certain you can be that it was tampered with, altered, or completely fabricated. And digital video is very easy to alter undetectably. They can even put a false time stamp on the footage of empty hallways they'll be showing to "prove" there was no foul play.

One major function of dishonest propagandists (who nowadays call themselves "journalists") is to obfuscate reality. Another major function is replacing reality with a fake reality, a story, a myth, a legend, that the targets of the propaganda are tricked into believing is true and real.

The U.S. government has murdered so many people, and lied so often, and "the" media has perpetrated so many hoaxes, that neither should have a smidgen of credibility at this point in history. They should have to prove, with overwhelming genuine (not fabricated) evidence, every assertion they make.

Not just putting it on page A4, but running it as a narrow sidebar on the left side of the page (in English we start reading on the right) in a long narrow column 1 and 3/4ths inch wide, with the text a mere 1 and 5/8ths inch wide.

Dow Jones Company owns the WSJ and another rightwing financial rag, Barron's. Rupert Murdoch bought the Dow Jones Company from the plutocrat Bancroft family and promptly locked up the websites of the publications behind firewalls. So here's the top portion of the page with the paragraphs I cited.

Evidence Jeffrey Epsein Was Murdered: His Broken Neckbones

We are to believe that Epstein, the reviled "pedophile" (he had sex with teenagers, NOT children, so that is NOT pedophilia, that is sex with legal minors who are sexually mature physically) hung himself with his bedsheet in his cell in the gothically horrible Federal jail in Manhattan, the "Metropolitan Correctional Center." [1] (The U.S., being a cruel and barbaric empire, commonly runs its prisons and jails in sadistic ways.) If that is so, it is passing strange that his neck bones were broken, as has been reported that the official autopsy found. He would have been strangled or choked to death.

When a person is hung on the gallows, a trap door under their feet is rapidly sprung open and they plunge down until the rope suddenly stops their fall. The weight of their body causes the neck to snap, which if done properly results in instant death. A thick knot of rope at the back of the neck facilitates the breaking of the vertebrae and severing of the spinal cord.

Someone tying a bedsheet to cell bars and dropping down a short distance would not necessarily have that effect. I suppose it is not impossible. That's why I say this is evidence, not proof.

We DO know that callous indifference is about the best treatment prisoners at the MCC get. Read the article or watch the video in the footnote below.

One fact is indisputable: Jeffrey Epstein's death sure is convenient for other sex criminals like the known rapists Bill Clinton and Donald Trump, Alan Dershowitz, and a British "royal." The fact that the Empire elevates rapists to its top power position is a symptom of the moral degeneracy of this empire.

Even DEATH Is Too Good For Jeffrey Epstein!

Amazingly, that's the attitude being transmitted by the establishment propaganda system (which calls itself "the media," as if it's the one and only media in the universe and not a particular group of organs representing corporate oligarchy and U.S. imperialism) in the wake of the death of Jeffrey Epstein. Here in America, we're being treated to a deluge of teeth gnashing that although Epstein in effect got the death penalty for paying teenagers to indulge his sexual proclivities, he "escaped justice." What would "justice" have been? Drawing and quartering? Burning alive at the stake? Crucifixion?

Of course he was being crucified, by the media, and by an incredibly vengeful, opportunistic U.S. Attorney in New York City. The crimes he was all but convicted in advance of date to the early 2000's. I haven't heard a whisper about statute of limitations. For most Federal crimes, it's seven years.

And still "the" media, and the prosecutors, are protecting the various eminences who partook of the pleasures of the flesh provided by their host, Epstein. These include two U.S. presidents (Trump and Clinton) and a British "prince." And the loathsome Zionist attack dog Alan Dershowitz. Instead all the focus now is on getting Elaine Maxwell, Epstein's erstwhile "girlfriend" and alleged "procurer" of teenagers. (Whom the media attack dogs insist on calling "children," thus infantilizing sexual beings, and falsely pasting the "pedophile" label on Epstein.

Epstein was charged with "trafficking." To whom did he traffic? Himself? Yet the U.S. Attorney running the inquisition, Geoffrey Berman, didn't so much as name the members of the protected elite who partook of forbidden sex as unindicted co-conspirators. Media yakkers finger Maxwell as the next target, along with "pilots and whoever." Nary a mention of those being protected.

And already the propagandists are sneering at the "conspiracy theories" that Epstein was silenced to protect the highly privileged "pedophiles."

Now Trump's handpicked U.S. Attorney General, William "Cover Up Pro" Barr, is reported to have "asked" the Department he's the boss of, the Department of "Justice," and an agency that is under the nominal purview of that Department, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (the notorious political secret police, the FBI), to "investigate" the Epstein death. We can always rest assured when the government investigates itself. (Specifically he wants the DOJ Inspector General to investigate, as well as the FBI. The Federal Bureau of Prisons, whose prisoner Epstein was, is part of the DOJ also. The DOJ is a many-armed octopus of repression.)

Barr has an "interesting" history which "the" media helpfully hides. As a key cog in the regime of George Herbert Walker Bush, Bush the Elder (the slaughterer of 4,000 poor Panamanians and countless hapless Iraqi conscripts running for their lives), Barr is the one who got Bush to issue preemptive pardons to Iran-Contra criminals like Caspar Weinberger before they could be brought to book by the special counsel, who was much outraged by the move. By doing so, Bush protected himself. He did exactly what Democrats and their media allies have been screaming that Trump better NOT do- issue pardons that protect himself. Bush did exactly that- and he was given a two-week apotheosis was the old murderer died.
As for how Epstein ended up dead: There are plenty of solid reasons to be skeptical of the "suicide" conclusion. For one thing, the New York City Medical Examiner has completed an autopsy but so far  refuses to release the results. It's only a "suicide" because the propaganda system says it is.

Then there was the previous "suicide" attempt. Or was it? The government has never actually said that it was. All that has officially been announced by "the authorities" was that Epstein "was found unconscious" with "marks on his neck." Anything else has been media (propagandist) speculation and surmise.

Epstein may well have killed himself. He looked extremely depressed in the photo released of him in captivity, a release that was part of the humiliation ritual imposed on him. At a minimum, he was allowed to kill himself. What the establishment propaganda outlets have reported is that he was on a suicide watch after the first incident, then he was taken OFF suicide watch, but protocol called for him to have a cellmate to prevent self-harm. But he was left alone, locked up with his despair, and unwatched.

Various excuses have been defensively floated out by the guards. They are overworked. They are working overtime. (Apparently they don't "work" overtime but NAP overtime.) The prison is overcrowded. (Yet there was room to give Epstein a cell to himself alone.)

It's all a crock, of course. Obviously they wanted him dead. This prisoner was extremely high profile, subject of daily, lurid "coverage." Yet if we are to believe his captors, they were completely indifferent and feckless and inattentive to their highest profile prisoner in the Manhattan Federal Jail, the absurdly misnamed "Metropolitan Correctional Center." (Like they want to rehabilitate people!)

Usually in cases where a target of a political inquisition has damning evidence against the establishment itself, he is simply prevented from speaking at trial, and then consigned to a U.S. black hole, like the "Supermax" prison in Florence, Colorado, where prisoners are locked in tiny, windowless concrete cells for life, deprived of all human contact. Apparently it would be too kind to have a small porthole in the cell so the prisoner consigned to this living hell could at least look outside at the mountains, at the sky, at clouds. Since these prisoners are "monsters," they must be made to suffer as much as possible.

Manuel Noriega could have told a damning story about CIA drug dealing, and his work for them, but wasn't allowed to. "El Chapo" could have told about the millions in bribes he's paid to Mexican officials, including presidents, and U.S. complicity in Mexican corruption, but wasn't allowed to. Now he's to be buried alive in the "Supermax."

The next chapters in the Epstein saga are the substitution of Elaine Maxwell to be burned at the stake, and "justice" for the "victims" by their looting Epstein's estate. This has already been announced by "the" media as a form of "justice." A couple of the former teens and their lawyers are complaining they were deprived of "closure" by Epstein's death. Maybe they should stop traumatizing themselves by insisting they were so horribly victimized by getting paid a few hundred dollars for what was mostly mild sex (not counting one woman who serviced Epstein numerous times for money, and then claims he raped her, and maybe he did) that they can never get over it.

The man is DEAD. Can you let it go?

The establishment doesn't want to, for various reasons. That will have to await another essay.

Jeffrey Epstein died in jail, age 66. Was in good health so had many years to live.
