Was there a conspiracy to kill Jeffrey Epstein? Over the past 24 hours, the mainstream media has been full of stories about the various “conspiracy theories” that have sprung up around Jeffrey Epstein’s death. And of course the term “conspiracy theory” has essentially become a shorthand way for the mainstream media to dismiss any explanation that does not fit with the “official” interpretation of a particular news event.
So far, the mainstream media is pushing the narrative that Jeffrey Epstein’s death was a “suicide” even though we don’t actually have any evidence that this is true yet. Perhaps when we finally get the autopsy results things will become clearer, but then again they might not. In any event, it has been quite remarkable to see how big names from across the political spectrum have been responding to Epstein’s death. Many of them are demanding an investigation into what happened, and quite a few of them already seem convinced that his death was definitely not a “suicide”.
If Epstein’s death was not a suicide, then there almost certainly had to have been more than one person involved.
And if more than one person was involved, that would fit the legal definition of a “conspiracy”.
According to Cornell Law School, a “conspiracy” exists when there is an “agreement between two or more people to commit an illegal act, along with an intent to achieve the agreement’s goal.”
Wealthy and powerful people work together to commit illegal acts all the time. If you don’t believe that, then you need to wake up and learn how the world really works. Only time will tell if Jeffrey Epstein’s death was the result of a “conspiracy”, but right now a lot of prominent individuals are questioning the official narrative. The following are 10 quotes from big names across the political spectrum that are suspicious about the cause of Epstein’s death…
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: “We need answers. Lots of them.”
U.S. Representative Matt Gaetz: “Chairman @RepJerryNadler should prioritize a Judiciary investigation into how Jeffrey Epstein died in federal custody (in Nadler’s own neighborhood!) over the Kavanaugh confirmation (which already happened), and the Russia hoax (which never happened).”
Joe Scarborough: “A guy who had information that would have destroyed rich and powerful men’s lives ends up dead in his jail cell. How predictably…Russian.”
Lou Dobbs: “Dead Men Tell No Tales. Jeffrey Epstein found dead in Manhattan jail cell; multiple reports claim death by suicide #MAGA #AmericaFirst #Dobbs”
U.S. Representative Al Green: “The suicide of Mr. Epstein is an impossibility. When an impossibility occurs involving powerful people and possible criminality there must be an investigation to end speculation. Because the public has a right to know, I’m calling for a congressional investigation. #JefferyEpstein”
Rudy Giuliani: “What does the word watch mean in the phrase suicide Watch? Who was watching? What does camera show? It is inconceivable Epstein could have hung himself if there was a suicide Watch? Follow the motives.”
Harlan Z. Hill: “Dead men tell no tales. Just as Jeffrey Epstein starts to name names, he decides to kill himself? Mkay. Totally believable.”
Former U.S. Senator Claire McCaskill: “Something stinks to high heaven. How does someone on suicide watch hang himself with no intervention? Impossible. Unless…..”
Paul Krugman: “If we were living in a paranoid fantasy universe, I would be very suspicious about the Epstein suicide, even about whether it was really suicide. And you know what? The Epstein case itself shows that we *are* kind of living in a paranoid fantasy universe.”
Attorney General William Barr: “I was appalled to learn that Jeffrey Epstein was found dead early this morning from an apparent suicide while in federal custody. Mr. Epstein’s death raises serious questions that must be answered. In addition to the FBI’s investigation, I have consulted with the Inspector General who is opening an investigation into the circumstances of Mr. Epstein’s death.”
President Trump also jumped into this debate when he retweeted something that a conservative comedian named Terrence K. Williams had posted.
Died of SUICIDE on 24/7 SUICIDE WATCH ? Yeah right! How does that happen#JefferyEpstein had information on Bill Clinton & now he’s dead
I see #TrumpBodyCount trending but we know who did this!

But to me, there was one quote that stood out above all the quotes that I have shared with you so far.
The New York Post interviewed a former inmate of the Metropolitan Correction Center in lower Manhattan, and according to that inmate it would have literally been impossible for Epstein to kill himself…
There’s no way that man could have killed himself. I’ve done too much time in those units. It’s an impossibility.
Between the floor and the ceiling is like eight or nine feet. There’s no way for you to connect to anything.
You have sheets, but they’re paper level, not strong enough. He was 200 pounds — it would never happen.
You can read the rest of his account right here. After reading that account, I was certainly persuaded that it was extremely unlikely that Epstein would have been able to kill himself.
Of course, it is always possible that Epstein could have died from natural causes, but it is probably much more likely that he was killed to protect wealthy and powerful people that Epstein could have testified against.
I am sorry if this doesn’t fit with your view of the world, but the truth is that we live in a society that is saturated with evil. That has been true since the very beginning, and human nature hasn’t changed.
Hopefully there will be an investigation into what happened, and hopefully, the truth will come out. But I am certainly not optimistic, and the mainstream media will undoubtedly do their best to cover up this entire sordid affair.
Who cares just as long as the scumbag finally kicked the bucket? He’s in hell where he belongs.
Epstein has been murdered.
Now FBI is raiding his island. Not to gather evidence. But to destroy, confiscate, evidence, so as their criminal politician master’s crimes are well COVERED up
FBI doesn’t want evidence to get out. But it is likely too late. Mossad or Brits already raided/confiscated.
Epsteins testimony, pictures, video, would take down politicians, corporate head defense contractors, kings and princes, maybe even a President past and present?
All these talkin heads, all these opinions. What does any of it matter? Regardless of how many investigations there are, not one person will be held accountable other than some overworked prison guard(s) who “didn’t do their job”. This government is so corrupt that there is nothing that can be done, save for a divine intervention. Personally, I’m not convinced that he’s dead but if he is, this government has become an abject failure to its citizens it’s supposed to serve.
No one cares that Epstein is dead and in hell. What they care about is our Political leaders that set themselves up as moralist are depraved child rapists and murders. Epstein was only the tip of the ice berg, and his death means the hidden part will never be seen and continue to exist, and the other guilty will never be punished.
So now they are saying that he had been taken OFF klintoncide watch.
How convenient.
Slick Willy Clinton is probably breathing a sigh of relief.
he is a 3ew Mossad agent. they sprang him from jail. had a look alike cadaver in the ambulamce. They likely did hang the look alike.. The cadaver had different nose and ears. Its not Racist to assert the 3ew mossad does the same sort of things the USA CIA does. If fact getting him sprung from jail is the most logical plausible explanation.
I would be willing to stake money that you are correct OG. He knew too much but is more value alive than dead. This oughta be interesting.
When I was a kid in Jr. high it was the “thing” to press on other kids carotid artery and the return side, to cause your willing victim to pass out. It doesn’t take much pressure.
Kids still do such stupid things. It is a cheap and hangover free high. I understand people do it also as a form of masturbation.
Maybe Jeff, the sex nut was doing this as an auto erotic and was able to use a paper sleeping sheet to duplicate
such a situation. If the pressure is not relieved.
When you pass out, your brain will die and your heart will stop.
I would not call that a hanging.
I’d call that Democrat normalcy.
Howdy All,
Well, here we are. Everyone KNEW that Epstein would be gotten to, you’d have to be functionally brain dead to have bekieved otherwise. Money is power…power Corrupts…Absolute power corrupts UTTERLY. None of this lost or even unfamiliar to those here…it’s exactky why WE hold the mindset that we do; once you’ve peeked behind the curtion and seen the Wizard miving the levers you simply can’t ‘un-see’ that, can you?
Well, here’s where it get’s interesting.
IF Epstein is – legally – dead, then the entire (admittedly corrupt) system of jurisprudence we enjoy here in the land of the Thieves and the Home of the Slaves can, if the proper people are moving the levers, do things that couldn’t even practically be considered when Epstein was alive.
To wit, ANY discovery(s) made now and brought forth in a court against any other defendent connectable to Epstein cannot be excluded OR supressed.
Naturally, that compounds the difficulties any such defendent already has in mounting a successful defense, however one small point as yet not currently explicated publically – to my knowledge – is this;
Epstein’s finances are NOW completely ‘open season’ for any investigator with any standing whatsoever. As always, “Follow the Money”…which any competent firensic accountant can do without undue effort.
Think about it…how did such a piece of dog-shit acquire the fortune he purportedly had? Anyone in THIS country sending large sums…5, 10, 15 million dollars to anyone else leaves a paper trail as wide as sixteen lane highway.
Sure, you can do it more ‘under the table’ but that leaves easily tracked transactions on the end of the remitter, bank withdrawals, etc. IF they get anyone into a court of Law snd begin crswling through thier financial in depth they can rather rapidly build a ‘Web-work’ of additional connections to others thus expanding the list of people that Epstein actually financial benefited from. The webwork would rapidly expand in a roughly exponential fashion under the supervusuon of any competent forensic accountant. As always, “Cui Bono”… but here in reverse. Beyond the shadow of ANY reasonable doubt Epstein was blackmailing every last smuck stupid enough to fall into his ‘honey trap’…and it might yet prove to be the case that his handlers were Mossad. The potential gains to be had from an operation of that sort are proximally unbounded…infinite.
We are living in ‘interesting times’, as the Chinese proverb goes.
JOG
Well laid out with one flaw. You assume the legal system is really focused on getting to the bottom of Epstein’s web of contacts instead of covering it up. My money is on the latter.
Howdy Sailor,
Indeed…that is the singular concern in the current climate of absolute, utter corruption which characterizes the entirety of the governance of this once great country. You’ve hit the proverbial nail directly on it’s head.
No, the point made above centers more around how easy – relatively speaking – it is to track money flows for anyone who is skilled at forensic accounting…and HAS the needed access to the salient records; potentially a second major stumbling block as you alluded to.
For the nonce I’m going to provisionally Grant AG Barr a modicum of faith in this affair and I do so for one specific reason; his choice of primary investigator for this entire mess – Durham.
The guy is a known ‘pit-bull’ who never ever gives up. We will soon see, won’t we?
Failing that, it may well be time for We, The People to take back all delegated authorities from EVERY edifice of Power in this country and perform a manual reset…or face Tyranny such as the Founders could never have conceived. IMHO, This small event might well be the galvanizing event that serves as the ‘tipping point’ we have all been expecting for so long…May God have Mercy on all the righteous in this land and serve Justice upon ALL who are so sorely are due it.
JOG
People were not being “blackmailed” by Eptstein, they were “investing” in his hedge firm.. which is all legal and not suspicious.
No one cares that Epstein is dead and in hell. What they care about is our Political leaders that set themselves up as moralist are depraved child rapists and murders. Epstein was only the tip of the ice berg, and his death means the hidden part will never be seen and continue to exist, and the other guilty will never be punished.

I saw an old photo of my grandfather, in a T-shirt with a dirty picture, like what was painted on the side of a WW2 plane. My grandmother ran a saloon in a navy town and could out-curse the drunk sailors, when she wanted kids to get out of the road.
She started a large and successful family at 15y/o.
I am not particularly claiming to be Amish, but they could feed a whole work crew by middle school age, knowing where the food literally comes from — as a slaughterhouse knows it — and the operations of a household. (Does the hotel cleaning staff know it? Can MeToo, accomplish the same, ordinary tasks as a political dinosaur?)
You white knights, what if the social contract applied to people at reproductive, biological maturity — work for a living, and a living for work. And, the solution to sex out of wedlock was a marriage.
Have I said this in a self-righteous way?
Then, what would happen to Dr. Strangelove and his harem?
Wayward women and their bastards were farmed-out to nunneries, laundries, and workhouses.
No frazzledrip?
So far, it seems like ‘aspiring models’ partied on a yacht.
Oh, the humanity.
Breaking Report Reveals Epstein Was Murdered
Reports are pouring in revealing that Epstein was yelling in pain in his cell the morning he died! Americans are now waking up after hearing the ‘official’ narrative of Epstein’s death!
Heck We certainly do not know if Epsten is even dead? supposively he was still alive when put in the ambulance. It would have been easy to switch a similar cadaver for him? In Arkansas they had a guy charged with blowing a guys head off with a 12 guage. a dozen eye witnesses. At trial the state medical examiner testified that the crime scene was staged. not constistant with a shotgun blast because of not enough blood spatter . if fact the corpse never bled from the shotgun wound. and It turned out the guy was framed. they shot a already dead corpse and a dozen liars clamed he done it. Randolph county Ar. a corrupt place. Read the Arkansas Times Article a death in Pocahontas.
It appears that hundreds of young girls were possibly kidnapped, raped or worse by perhaps a hundred powerful men. Yet folks here do not care that Epstein can never be tried for such crimes? Does no one care about justice? Ah… but the girls were not YOUR daughters. I get it.
those girls for the most part where paid whores. The same sluts will give it away to some dindu or no good wigger. They willingly engaged in the worlds oldest profession. the only crime is consentual sex with a underage person. Most already knew how to fuck. its very doubtfull that any where innocent virgins.
He’s still alive…
What is the motivation for anyone to want to keep him alive?
Whatever his purpose was, it is finished. Nobody’s interest is served by keeping him alive. Epstein dies – the investigation dies.
Hide and watch.
