This news came to me in the middle of the night.
There will, no doubt be more coming as a sift through the evidence.
One thing about the internet age is that lies and contradictory narratives are usually blown out of the water within hours.
life in his prison cell
10 August,
2019
Millionaire
financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein has died in a
Manhattan jail, with law enforcement sources saying he killed
himself. Epstein was in custody pending trial for child sex
trafficking and for conspiracy.
The
incident comes two weeks after the 66-year-old was found “injured
and in a fetal position” on the floor of his cell, with injuries to
his neck. Epstein had been placed on suicide watch as a result.
Law
enforcement sources told multiple news outlets that Epstein had
committed suicide on Saturday morning, with his body wheeled out and
taken to a New York hospital around 7:30am.
Epstein was arrested on July 6 and charged with sex trafficking and conspiracy. The charges against the millionaire allege that he'd abused dozens of young girls at his properties in Manhattan and Palm Beach, Florida, some of them as young as 14. Aside from the offenses alleged, rumors circulated of further child abuse at Epstein’s private Caribbean island.
According
to court documents unsealed
a day before his death, another alleged victim claims that Epstein
had trafficked her and other girls to some of the world’s
wealthiest and most powerful men, including Britain's Prince Andrew,
billionaire investor Glenn Dubin and former New Mexico Governor Bill
Richardson. The victim’s list also includes “another
prince,” a “foreign
president,” a “well-known
prime minister” and
the owner of a French “large
hotel chain.”
With
Epstein dead, the extent of his alleged crimes will likely never be
known, nor will those of his closest associates. Given the reach of
the circles he moved in, many speculated that Epstein would not
survive until his trial. News of his death was also greeted with
cynicism by online commenters.
I am not into conspiracy theories. But Epstein had destructive information on an extraordinary number of extraordinarily powerful people. It is not easy to commit suicide in prison. Especially after being placed on suicide watch. Especially after already allegedly trying.
Prior to his death, Epstein looked set to face the full weight of the justice system for his alleged deeds. A decade ago he managed to dodge federal charges for similar crimes, striking a controversial plea deal that saw him serve only 13 months in a low-security jail for the lesser charge of solicitation of prostitution from a minor.
“Epstein once again cheated his victims out of an opportunity for justice," a lawyer for several of Epstein's victims told the Miami Herald. "While I’m sure none of them regret his death, all of them regret the information that died with him.”

In the first iteration CNBC said "there is nothing to suggest foul play"
When I pressed on the link I got this -
It is hard for me to escape the conclusion that they might be responding to instructions.
Changing narratives without clarification or notice - shameless. I have never seen the "Putin propaganda" outlets manipulate the facts in this way
