Of which, trump is now protecting!

He's either hiding on his island, or in some friendly Middle Eastern country, like Qatar or Dubai.

based on what has been reported

So, I guess it doesn't matter to me how Epstein died. He's dead. That's good enough for me. I have no opinion about that at all.

I mean, does it get any more symbolic…..

or witness aside from like one particular broken bone that is not always seen in suicide by hanging, and did it perfectly enough to fool the chief medical examiner of NYC and DoJ IG both, seems like a somewhat fanciful one to me, more in the realm of super-spy movies than real-life.

Add to that the fact that it happened less than 24 hours after the Guiffre/Maxwell court documents dropped like a bombshell in the media and very strongly damaged any case he may have thought he had (iow providing a clear motivation for him) leads me to think it's def. more likely he offed himself.

That said I still think there's some chance that it was purposefully 'made easier for him to do' in some kind of small-scale conspiracy. This covers some of the sketchiness people point to when they list their reasons why they presume he was murdered w/o requiring a big cover-up and perfect execution of an elaborate and highly illegal scheme

difficult to determine 100%.

In order, given the little evidence and circumstances we have, this is what I think.
1. Murder
2.Suicide
3. Assisted suicide
4. Ken Lay "fake death" and getaway with all sorts of fake reports.

maybe a week before. I think the killed himself.
