Jeffrey Epstein is STILL Dead To Me

Part II of the Epstein “suicide” saga.

Offsite Link
by Anonymousreply 465September 19, 2019 10:27 PM

I absolutely believe he killed himself.

He knew it was game over when he couldn't get bailed to house arrest. He knew that because of his previous treatment in jail that the feds would come down hard on him.

He knew that life is hell for pedophiles in prison. He definitely did not want to spend the rest of his life on a pedo unit, with other disgusting men.

He could not live without access to female teens.

Suicide was his best option.

It’s never “game over” for men like Epstein. Especially in his mind. He should’ve been fully confident that his lawyers would get him off again.

I've been in touch with a dozen-ish current/former prosecutors today. Many commonalities in their responses to #Epstein death, the first of which is this: Why so quick to declare it a suicide? Why not just say he's dead, appears to be by hanging, we're investigating? Very odd.

We will never hear the end of the retarded conspiracy theories about this case. He killed himself because he was going to spend the rest of his life in prison. Duh. He was a freaky pervert but I think the media has been a bit melodramatic about the allegations, throwing around terms like "sex slavery " and "horrifying ". Basically the old weirdo was paying teenagers for sex if I am understanding correctly. I don't get the whole account from the Virginia accuser. Why does the media keep calling her a "sex slave "? What prevented her from leaving? Is it really sex slavery if you accept money for sexual favors? I'll admit I haven't followed this story closely though so I might be missing something.

He was either murdered or someone got him out of there. He got off with a slap on the hand a decade ago; don't you think those same forces could get him to a secret place? They're billionaire sociopaths.

This stinks. Not even two weeks ago he ALLEGEDLY tried to commit suicide. He was supposed to be on suicide watch. Who decided to take him off suicide watch. And why was he moved and placed where he was? And I do not give two fucks about Billy Barr being "appalled." He is responsible for securing the prisons and their personnel and the prisoners. He ought to resign. In fact that should trend on twitter. He fucked up enough stuff. As far as I'm concerned they killed him, either directly or indirectly.When a guy attempts suicide, you place him on watch. YOU don't take him off watch. This all comes to roost on Barr's door step. period. I betcha Barr is going to fare someone, maybe several someones. Just to make sure it gets the focus off of himself. He'll scapegoat some poor slob.

R20, NYPD system are controlled by Carbyne, a business where Epstein's buddy Nicole Junkermann is on the board.

Carbyne's NY Police Dept connection was listed last week on Carbyne's Wikipedia. Appears that someone tampered with the entry and it no longer exists. Homeland recently awarded Carbyne an award. They work closely with CISCO.

Much info can be found online, verifiable for those who look at anything out of the ordinary as ho-hum conspiracy theories.

The timing is the key. Saturday morning: after all the papers had already been printed; all the cable people off for the weekend; Trump away on his 'vacation' (he's been on vacay for 2.5 yrs.). And right after those lawsuit files were unsealed Friday.

Whatever happened, it was deliberately timed to have the smallest impact. In hopes it would mostly be forgotten by Monday.

In other words: no accident.

It’s unlikely he killed himself - he pleaded not guilty, had gotten away with a few months of house arrest the last time he was charged, and as others have pointed out narcissists tend not to commit suicide.

The question now is: will the investigation of Epstein’s finances continue now that he’s dead? Because I still want to know where all that money was coming from.

Let me get this straight. Hillary killed Jeffery Epstein on the same day that information came out that Trump had been on Epstein's private jet, had partied with him and had hired one of Epstein's girls at Mar A Logo and that no one had ever seen Bill Clinton at any of these parties. If it is true that Hillary killed Epstein, then she was protecting Trump from further revelations coming out about him and saving his Presidency! OK, then. Makes perfect sense.

R37, I'm not the poster making up conspiracy theories about the Clinton's on this thread. Clearly both the Clinton's and Trump are guilty of child rape and associating with JE.

As I've said many times, it would be far, far easier to find the few DC politicians who aren't at all corrupt, Jimmy Carter being just one example of a more moral man. Unfortunately he wasn't able to manipulate the system and deal with the DC underbelly to get much accomplished during his presidency as he himself has admitted.

R37, Again I'm not accusing the Clinton's of suiciding JE because I don't think he's really dead. Evidence online clearly shows that there was a double being carried away without the telltale signs of an actual death by strangulation.

R37, I'm also stating that both the Clinton's and Trump and the Queen and many, many other super powerful, elite billionaires wanted JE silenced and removed from media exposes. That has now been accomplished.

by Anonymousreply 39August 11, 2019 1:54 PM

The plural of Clinton is Clintons.

An apostrophe is not used to make a name plural.

An OBVIOUS sign of QAnon looks is their use of "the Clinton's" to describe Hillary and Bill, when it should be "the Clintons."

Proof of QAnon lunacy is in the added, unnecessary apostrophe.

I'm the one who said yesterday that I would never believe this guy killed himself because of his loss of lifestyle--because of Madoff.

You guys said that being a pedo in prison than being a famous swindler was different because these pedos get killed.

HOWEVER, when one has 500 million (or in that pay grade), you have enough money to pay a prison gang to protect you (obviously you have a lawyer who does this sort of thing--someone like Michael Cohen). How many pedos in prison are ridiculously rich people? All he needed, much like Marc Rich got, is a presidential pardon a few years later and--zip!--off to France forever.

I think he was murdered.

R50, I am clueless as to what happened with this guy. I believe everything and nothing. This is such a special case, & I believe that we will all have to accept the fact that we will never know the truth. And if Epstein was/is NOC (and a cursory glimpse of his personal history definitely corresponds to NOC), then even people who would normally know the truth, won’t know the truth. That’s how this one is going out.

So who will claim Epstein’s remains? Who will bury him? Has he any living family? Miss Maxwell & AG Barr appear to be the two people whom he was closest to, interestingly enough.

Barr & Epstein have known each other for most of their lives. I wonder what Epstein knew about Barr’s family, or about Barr, himself. And what does DJT know about Barr, & his family? I’m assuming he knows what Epstein knew, which is why Barr is willing to publicly humiliate himself while carrying out the duties of a US AG, like a henchman for a mob boss, rather than for the People he represents and the United States of America.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Barr had no idea that this was going to happen. I’d even wager that he might have thought that he had control over this whole situation, & that he could keep Epstein safe. I don’t why, but my guy tells me that he and Epstein did not have an acrimonious friendship. Barr’s father was allegedly a father figure to Epstein. We could be looking at this from an incorrect angle, & Barr was even more shocked and genuinely outraged than any of us imagine.

If he was murdered, the person with the most at stake will either benefit from his death, or be taken down because of it. Either way, Epstein became a pawn in a very fucked up game, & I agree with his attorney who said as much. Jeffrey knew the score, & I believe he may have flown back to the US in order to find quarter within a system that is now under the control of his childhood friend. Better to risk it in there, than somewhere else, outside of the US, where guarantees for personal safety could not be made, yes?

No way Epstein didn’t know he was going down when he landed in Jersey. No fucking way. He knew, and he flew in, despite knowing what was ahead. It was a calculated risk and the best one on offer right then and there.

Why would a man who flew into the United States, knowing he was about to be arrested, kill himself in a federal prison, controlled by his life long friend?

I’m going to have to let this one go. I’m never going to know what really happened to a man they called Jeffrey Epstein, and neither of any of you.

by Anonymousreply 54August 11, 2019 2:58 PM

Here's the thing from that study--

"Consistent with existing research, borderline personality disorder was the most prevalent personality disorder found in suicide attempters (in over a third of all subjects, while narcissistic personality disorder was identified in less than 4%)."

Only 4% of suicide attempters brought into the ER between the years of that study (1999-2003 in Spain) were narcissists. That is indeed very low. So narcissists being no more like than most mentally well people--because, of course, the psychs are going to judge any suicide attempter as not well--to commit suicide. That is what we would expect.

But he was a hugely wealthy narcissist: he knew he had options. Roman Polanski did not off himself when he lost prestige and had to leave the country. He knew he could afford the best lawyers, the best PR firms (to "manage" his public apologies and grease his going into some tony bullshit rehab). All he had to do was sit tight and shut up through the trial. He was a smart guy who didn't give a shit about what anyone else thought or how anyone else felt.

It's been discussed several times on the prior thread, R24, that "suicide watch" conditions are very punitive. You can't give prison authorities the right to indefinitely keep a prisoner on "suicide watch" or they would abuse that power. The prison was obligated to remove him from suicide watch as soon as they concluded he was not a risk to himself. He did not, in fact, kill himself immediately after being removed from suicide watch.

[quote]Kasman also speculated that Epstein could have paid for help to assist him in carrying out the suicide. “There are cameras going 24/7 and they’re watching 24/7. Someone had to give [Epstein] the equipment to kill himself and he had to pay for it dearly,” Kasman claimed. “That facility for years had issues of corruption, with correction officers bringing in food or cellphones for wealthy people.”

I don't agree with R54's premise. The only danger Epstein was in was if he talked to anyone about his clients. As a pedo himself, he could have lived a million places on earth (as they do) and kept his mouth shut. And he was out of his mind if he thought he was fleeing to the sympathy of the American judicial system.

Didn't he learn from watching Dominique Strauss-Kahn that if there is anywhere a powerful rapist/pedo will be taken down, it's here. We certainly don't get all of them, but we do get more than the Europeans do.

Naive question, and I realize Epstein was more valuable alive than dead, but why do prisons care if the inmates kill themselves or not, especially if they’re in there for life? Saves a ton of money by not having to support them in the system.

Jails care because the people who pay taxes and vote for politicians care. Jails are not supposed to be concentration camps that drive people to suicide or outright kill them. Most people realize that prisoners in jail are incredibly vulnerable (even if they are dangerous themselves)--to other prisoners, to sadistic guards who can do terrible things to them, to all sorts of things. If you take away someone's freedom, it should be for a defined outcome (punishment, restitution, etc). It's the same reason we provide (shitty) healthcare to inmates--if you've taken away their freedom (and their ability to access healthcare, food, or safety on their own therefore), then you are responsible for keeping them alive with the basics.

Yeah, R97, but remember, this wasn’t about Jeffrey Epstein the the pedo, & his pedo friends. This is about money. Money laundering, precisely.

Forget about these girls for a moment. They were never the real and primary issue when discussing Epstein and his friends. The man was a money dude, who facilitated specific and complex financial transactions for people who were funding shit that we will never even know about, and things we do know about, like wars, the toppling of dictators (Quadafi comes to mind), and the formation of groups like ISIL. Even the election of an illegitimate president comes to mind.

THAT is what this is truly about.

Epstein made it possible for money and arms to be moved around. He coordinated how something got from point A, to point B, without “it” ever being traced to the people who were behind the curtain.

The girls were an incidental part of the operation, & this will go nowhere, as far as they are concerned. They will be paid off by his estate, & that’s all she wrote.

This was and is, much bigger than the cover story that we have been fed. And now I’m wondering if that story was all bullshit in the first place.

R109, I read, either in the VF articles or the Miami Herald, that he actually didn't spend much time on his financial business, that he barely used his computer. There might not be any records.

If the feds are serious in pursuing this, they will charge Maxwell and get one of the other facilitators (the former Miss Sweden probably has the most to lose as she married well) to turn. But my guess is, Maxwell is busy arranging massive payoffs from offshore accounts to the girls so that won't go anywhere.

I don't think it was bullshit. I think he made the incredibly stupid mistake of committing (over the years) two kinds of crimes at the same time. He got caught because he was a pedo and it took the unlikely metoo movement to bring that back onto the stage when he probably thought it was safely under the bridge.

Also, you are probably right that the financial/political people are the ones who killed him. A few weeks back, this security consultant I follow on twitter wrote in his column that E seemed to be an intelligence asset, but NOT for America.

Jeffrey required a 1B buy in, no exceptions. That 1B was turned over to him, and he was in control of that money. The client had no say in how the money was “managed”. All he would say was that he would make you money, which he actually did.

He would collect his annual fee, which was pretty steep, but worth the cost. After a minimum of something like 10 years, you could resign or go with your original billion, plus earnings.

He only carried 25 clients at a time, per cycle, and allegedly NEVER deviated from certain systems and rules that he set up for himself when it came to money management. That’s not too unusual when it comes to management. What is highly unusual, was the threshold for the buy in, and the lengths of the cycles.

Another unusual feature is that he had ZERO, ZILCH, help. No administrative staff, no analysts, no one. He, & only he, knew what he was doing, how, and why. That’s what made him huge asset, & why he is worth much more alive than dead, & why many were highly motivated to see him not serve hard or real time, when he was previously busted.

My theory about how he earned his money - Epstein had Virgin Islands residency and business registrations set up before the tax haven loopholes were closed. He made out like he was some kind of financial wizard, but in reality he just ran/laundered his clients money through those shelf companies and invested it safely. Then at the end of the year he forwarded those nice, clean, tax-free profits minus his 20% commission.

You can't run any sort of hedge fund without administrative staff--even if just to do the contracts and things. It is a huge undertaking. Even if he had been running it out of the Caymens (or wherever), it's not possible.

I think this is bullshit anyway. No billionaire--unless he had some sort of weird sexual relationship like Wexler--is going to give a moron with no record that amount of money. People who are billionaires aren't stupid--and if they are (inheritors), they have sharp people working for them who keep them out of trouble. Actually, most billionaires are in financial services themselves, so they know who the smarties are and aren't.

Years before Madoff was exposed, no one on the street would do business with him because they knew there was something wrong. His main clients were people who had personal relationships with him (ie were Jewish) and trusted him on that account without being too savvy financially.

Epstein didn’t need that many “clients.”

Although he claimed to be an investment advisor, his real business likely was money laundering and blackmail.

For example, even though multi-billionaire, Les Wexner, belatedly claims to have recaptured millions of dollars from Epstein, Wexner also “gifted” JE that Manhattan townhouse, now worth $71,000,000 (and Lord knows how much else), upon their separation.

Over the past 30 years, given his “business” and the circles he traveled in, amassing a few times that amount was probably not as taxing as you might imagine.

Among the interview's tidbits:

Epstein said that criminalizing sex with teenage girls was a cultural aberration and that at times in history it was perfectly acceptable. He pointed out that homosexuality had long been considered a crime and was still punishable by death in some parts of the world.

R180 They haven't worked in jail system, I have. No the sheets aren't paper, that's only when you're on suicide watch. Inmates have regular sheets made from cloths.

R179 and R181 They need to take inmates who have acute emergencies to the hospital for treatment that the medical units in jail cannot adequately provide. Also, EMTs cannot legally declare anyone dead, so by law they have to implement life-saving measures including airway support/ CPR until they get to the hospital. Regarding bowel/ bowel contents, that's not necessarily the case. Not all dead bodies will expel gut contents. Depending on the position body too, there may be air pockets that prevent that from happening if the decedent had anything to expel.

As for cameras inside jail, there are multiple cameras that show different angles of every part of jail. However, cameras are only trained on each individual cell on the outside only, not inside. So they can definitely tell who goes in/ out of JE's cell. The coroner can also determine time of death, and from there with the help of video evidence, they can ascertain whether it was suicide or suspicious death. Cameras inside jails are practically impossible to be tampered with because they're set up high and they have outside control to guard against it.

Autopsies can take longer particularly with suicides. There are simply more things to check off and since it was done on a Sunday, they may have had to wait extra day or two for lab results to come in since it was over the weekend when it happened.

Being put on suicide watch means being sectioned off for 72 hours then being reevaluated for necessity after that. JE was on suicide watch for 6 days. Release from the hold must come from mental health team of specialists including MD, NP, psychologists, RNs, as well as ancillary staff like correctional officers, social workers, and the warden. No one person is responsible for taking someone off of psych hold. You're automatically put on psych hold if you have any suicidal ideation, attempt, or threatening behavior to other inmates.

It’s so telling how testimonies on abuse and pedophilia amidst the very wealthy, the entertainment industry (including sports) and political fields globally all contain such parallels and common themes.

I find it hard to believe that so many people, spanning the globe, have managed to concoct these elaborate, eerily similar stories. In fact, dismissing all these claims veers on a conspiracy theory in and of itself.

R189 That’s your assumption to make. I never made that claim nor do I believe it to be true.

I do believe, however, that there is a network(s) of incredibly wealthy and powerful sociopaths and pedophiles that use that same money and power to cover up the depravity they crave and thrive on. And I think they’re more connected, pervasive and in collusion with one another than than we know or would even like to imagine.

There does seem to be a a glass wall in the entertainment industry and the political fields that most aspirants hit before they can ascend further up the ladder to wealth, fame and success.

It’s almost like they have to pass some kind of hazing ritual before they’re “in the club”. This hazing doesn’t effect the innate sociopath much and it usually turns the unsuspecting if highly ambitious aspirant either sociopath is, into an addict or simply psychotic.

R186, Fiona Bartlett is the nuttiest nut in a tin, filled with assorted nuts. Her story, as well as many others’, are put out for disinformation purposes.

She came out with those claims years ago, I am aware. However, the tactic is as old as time.

Whisper campaigns, and flat out conspiracy theories are doing real damage to our world. People are paying with their lives, now, just as they did in Germany during WW2. And while I understand that we are not currently experiencing a holocaust, I want to point out that specific groups of people were targeted for complete divestment of properties, assets, & eventually their lives, because of whisper campaigns, innuendo, propaganda, & conspiracy theories, which had been on perpetual “play” for hundreds of years in Europe, before escalating to the point of the Holocaust.

An entire country agreed to the systematic slaughter of millions of people based on complete & total bullshit. The people who initially believed and spread anti-Semitic myths & sentiments were long dead by the time WW2 rolled around, not seeing the devastation caused due to the fruits of their first labor.

Don’t you find it odd that EVERY important world leader, is suddenly a pedophile? Every royal family eats children, sacrifices them, & keeps them in a dungeon? Wealthy elites have hunting parties, & chase kids down with bows & arrows? Meanwhile, people are truly suffering, because QAnons & the gullible believe that all in government or private industry are baby killing satanists, and not one, can be trusted.

So on it goes, & we become accustomed to voting for the lesser of two evils. We become accustomed to the belief that at the very least, we’re not being sacrificed at some altar, or being raped by some prince, or president, nor are our children, so at least, there’s that. We become accustomed to living our reality, based on outlandish fantasy.

I am not claiming to disbelieve Epstein’s accusers. I will say that I believe some, & not others. I also believe that there’s quite a bit of bullshit being thrown into the mix. Some of these accounts told by these women, were simply not possible, & some are unbelievable, yet probably true.

I think that we are missing a fundamental part of the story. What part? That we STILL have no fucking clue who this guy was, what he really did, and why. Epstein presented himself to be a sex addicted hebephile, and that, I can believe. Some of his clients may have had sex with these girls as well. OK, sure. That’s a tiny fraction of this pie, & I can guarantee you that almost everything, if not all that we hear & read about him in the following weeks will be fabricated, much like Fiona’s stories.

I apologize for the long rant, but I am just so fucking sick and tired of hearing people using shit like Pizzagate, QAnon, and Fiona Bartlet in order to support a theory, or to claim that they are fact.

Pedophilia is an extremely rare disorder- FACT.

Most pedophiles never offend - FACT.

Most men and women who engage in unlawful rape of minors, do so right within their home, amongst their own children, or children living in that home - FACT.

The supposed leak was posted to the anonymous message board 4chan at 8:16 a.m. Saturday, around 40 minutes before The Post broke the news of the convicted pedophile’s death, Buzzfeed News reported.

“[D]ont ask me how I know, but Epstein died an hour ago from hanging, cardiac arrest. Screencap this,” the post said.

FDNY Deputy Commissioner Frank Gribbon said he “could not verify the accuracy” of the 4chan post, according to the news outlet.

“The department will review this incident,” Gribbon said.

I'll get flamed for this but I wish the media would stop referring to these teenagers as "child sex slaves ". These weren't a bunch of 10 year olds trapped in a Thai brothel. The main accuser was basically fucking this guy in exchange for gifts, travel, and schooling. No judgement here, it was a lavish lifestyle and many would have done the same in her place. As sleazy as Epstein was, I'm not buying that Virginia Roberts only stayed because she felt trapped. She stayed because she was getting something out if the equation. It's human nature. What he did was in and of itself is illegal so why the over the top descriptions. I believe he was a chronic predator who broke a shitload of laws but I don't believe everything that is put out there about this case. And frankly, if the press wants to cover actual child sex slavery there are plenty of genuine examples of victims who really can't get out. But I don't think the press would find these cases "sexy " enough.

In the UK, in Rotherham and Rochdale, the men preyed on young teens from disadvantaged backgrounds. Girls were bribed with cigarettes and alcohol.

Bullshit, R235.

R232, thanks for voicing what many have been thinking.

No judgement from me either. But Virginia wasn’t trapped. Trapped is locked away in a room, with no way out. Beautiful townhomes in London or Manhattan, along with 5 star hotels, aren’t traps.

I would have gotten inside the closest American embassy, or if in the states, call 911.

Virginia was definitely victimized, but she wasn’t a small child, without any way out of it, & portrayals of this sort are completely ridiculous.

And by the way, I’ve turned this story every way possible, and I have concluded that I, PERSONALLY, believe it ALL bullshit. ALL of it.

None of this shit is real in any way, shape, or form.

I have no fucking clue who this guy was, or is, but the only part of this bullshit that I’m willing to entertain is that he was/is a sex addict who prefers teens to adults. That peccadillo was scrutinized, & magnified beyond anything that originally resembled the truth.

He pleaded guilty, was sentenced to 20 years in prison, and was released in 2013. Three years later, he filed a lawsuit against Epstein, blaming him for the fraud and claiming that he had tried to warn authorities about Epstein’s financial chicanery for years.”

Epstein was a billionaire with no clear source for his wealth, yet the SEC and IRS did nothing to investigate him - despite being repeatedly tipped off about the guy over several years. Even after this lawsuit was filed in 2016 nothing seems to have happened.

[QUOTE]The first is the 75-acre Little St. James, which Epstein bought 21 years ago for just under $8 million. Located in the U.S. Virgin Islands and comprising five buildings and some 70 employees, Epstein gave the periphery of the stone home its own facelift after moving in – razing the natural greenery and installing palm trees that sway in the breeze alongside two American flags.

[QUOTE]In 2016 – some eight years after he entered into the sweetheart plea deal with limited jail time and registered as a sex offender – Epstein upgraded with a second island, this one adding 165 acres at a cost of $18 million. Think amphitheaters and underwater offices, along with an odd blue-and-white-striped temple with a golden dome. Some reports asserted it was a music studio, while others allude to more sinister intent. Its value: $22.5 million.

[QUOTE]The financier also owned a luxe Beaux-Arts mansion on Manhattan’s Upper East Side – worth $56 million – and a 10,000-acre property in New Mexico he dubbed the “Zorro Ranch," previously owned by former Gov. Bruce King, with its own airport hangar, a stunning 27,000 square-foot pink-hued mansion and a price tag of $17.2 million.

[QUOTE]In addition, there's the El Brillo Way abode in Palm Beach, Fla., reportedly brimming with massage tables, nude photographs and an assortment of toys valued at $12.4 million. Then, too, there's the Paris apartment on Avenue Foch, in the shadow of the Arc de Triomphe, listed at $8.7 million. Epstein had been returning from his Parisian digs to New York when the FBI arrested him on July 6 at a New Jersey airport, charging him with the sex trafficking of minors.

[QUOTE]People familiar with the autopsy, who spoke on the condition of anonymity due to the sensitive stage of the investigation, said Sampson’s office is seeking additional information on Epstein’s condition in the hours before his death. That could include video evidence of the jail hallways, which may establish whether anyone entered Epstein’s cell during the night he died; results of a toxicology screening to determine if there was any unusual substance in his body; and interviews with guards and inmates who were near his cell.

[QUOTE]Jonathan L. Arden, president of the National Association of Medical Examiners, said a hyoid can be broken in many circumstances, but is more commonly associated with homicidal strangulation than suicidal hanging.

[QUOTE]Arden, who was not involved in the Epstein autopsy, said that in general, a finding of a broken hyoid requires pathologists to conduct more extensive investigation. That investigation can include analysis of the location of the noose, how narrow the noose is, and if the body experienced any substantial drop in the course of the hanging.

by Anonymousreply 305August 15, 2019 3:55 AM

The only way to have broken bone in hanging is hanging with a long fall. At least six to eight feet. Which is impossible in a prison cell like the one he was in.

So the only explication is homicide by strangulation.

Murdered.

Signed will just 2 days before death.

Jeffrey Epstein’s will has been filed in the US Virgin Islands, and it shows that he signed it Aug. 8 — two days before he hanged himself in his Manhattan jail cell, according to court papers exclusively obtained by The Post on Monday.

The multimillionaire convicted pedophile was worth $577,672,654, or about $18 million more than he previously stated in court papers when futilely trying to land bail on federal sex-trafficking charges, the new documents show.

The former hedge-fund manager put all of his holdings in a trust, called The 1953 Trust in court papers, after the year he was born.

The 21-page filing includes a copy of Epstein’s death certificate from Aug. 15, five days after his suicide — and lists “Immediate Cause: Pending Further Study.” The city Medical Examiner’s Office has since ruled that he killed himself.

The 66-year-old bachelor’s will was filed with court officials in St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands, where Epstein owned two islands worth a total of more than $86 million.

One of the secluded Caribbean isles, Little St. James Island, was dubbed “Pedophile Island” by locals who said they witnessed a parade of what looked like barely legal girls there.

There are no details on the trust’s beneficiaries. The court papers note that Epstein’s only potential heir was his brother, Mark Epstein. But the will adds that Mark only had a claim to his brother’s extensive holdings if Jeffrey hadn’t left behind the document.

Jeffrey’s list of holdings in the new documents mainly mirrors what his lawyers previously filed when seeking bail:

Cash: $56,547,773

Fixed income: $14,304,679

Equities: $112,679,138

Hedge funds and private equity: $194,986,301

Properties including: 9 E. 71st St., Manhattan, worth $55,931,000; 49 Zorro Ranch Road, Stanley, NM, $17,246,208; 358 El Brillo Way, Palm Beach, Fla., $12,380,209; 22 Avenue Foch, Paris, France, $8,672,823; Great St. James Island in the Virgin Islands, $22,498,600, and Little St. James Island, also there, $63,874,223.

But the new papers also include a line for “aviation assets, automobiles and boats,” a collection worth $18,551,700.

As for Epstein’s famous, eccentric, sex-drenched art collection — “fine arts, antiques, collectibles, valuables,” according to the papers — that still needs to be appraised.

You can debate Epstein for eternity, but by doing so you are missing the bigger picture. Though the crime may have begun with him, it certainly did not end with him. All the other famous/well-known men associated with him for the specific purpose of access to teen hookers is the meat and potatoes of the saga - along with the highly probable assertion that these men had him whacked in jail.

What do we know about Mark? Married? Single? Gay, straight, bi? Does he have a predilection for teens, or did he not share his brother’s curse?

I wonder if he’s got a normal penis. Was this due to a bad circumcision? Maybe he had an infection after the circumcision, and he ended up losing part of his penis?

R410, Trump gave Barr all the Intel responsibility. He decides what other people can see. He has access to Intel reports. He is in charge of DoJ investigations. He oversees the FBI and the U.S. Attorneys and the Prisons, and he staged the raids on Epstein's properties. Anything that might be contained in any FISA warrants against Trump or Epstein or anyone else connected to this filth, is all in Barr's hands now. He really is the most powerful man in government right now. And then you have Stephen Miller playing Trump like a piano. We have a very steep mountain to climb to get rid of this cancerous network that's strong armed our government.

Case against Jeffrey Epstein dismissed following his death

Offsite Link
by Anonymousreply 433August 29, 2019 6:49 PM

Only one-third of Americans believe Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide behind bars, according to a new poll by Emerson College.

Voters were asked to weigh in on the convicted pedophile’s Aug. 10 death at Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Center — and they were evenly split three ways.

Thirty-four percent believe Epstein was murdered, 33 percent believe the city Medical Examiner’s ruling that he hanged himself and 32 percent are unsure.

Across political affiliations, 46 percent of Republicans believe the financier was murdered versus 26 percent who say it was suicide. Thirty-eight percent of Democrats, meanwhile, say it was suicide, compared to 26 percent who think he was killed.

Epstein, 66, used a bed sheet tied to the top of a bunk bed in his cell to commit suicide a day after thousands of pages of court documents were unsealed detailing his years of alleged abuse. He was facing prison time on federal sex-trafficking charges.

He was not on suicide watch at the time. The feds are investigating his death.

If they seize all his money (which they will for gaining it by unlawful means, but also for settlements with the victims), he might as well be dead. What would he/could he do without access to tons of cash.

Squirreling away $10 million would not have been enough to keep off the grid for the rest of his life. And if he had any brains for planning, he wouldn't have come back to certain arrest.

Personally, I think they killed him.

by Anonymousreply 445August 31, 2019 3:17 AM

It wouldn't have made sense for them to have allowed him to live. And he seemed too frightened to have killed himself. A person like that is not going to commit suicide. He is going to be offed. And that no one was around and a camera was not working is not incompetence. It is intentional. With enough money you can buy off the NY penal system. And journalists. If not individually than collectively.

As to R434’s post, I’m a Dem, & I believe nothing and everything when it comes to this case.

At first I believed he wasn’t killed, nor did he commit suicide. He was elsewhere. Where, who knows? Then I believed he did kill himself, and now, I believe he was indeed, murdered.

What R446 said, makes the most sense. I think he believed that he’d beat this case, returned to the US, and never had the opportunity for due process. He was a huge liability for too many people.

We’ll probably never know what really happened to Epstein. If he took his own life, I wouldn’t be surprised about that either. The man was profoundly addicted to sex with minors. He was never going to have access to his “special” massages ever again, had he lived and remained incarcerated for the rest of his natural life.

I don’t disagree with you at all about the tax dodge, you’re right. I just don’t know how we can fix the system.

by Anonymousreply 452September 6, 2019 1:53 PM

R452, access for all to a free or significantly inexpensive formal, accredited college education is a start, followed up with real opportunities in the job sector, in order for millions of motivated and well trained Americans to work in. Then continued, ongoing, lifelong education.

We’re no longer in an era where getting a degree is enough to carry us through our ever increasing lifespans. AI and specifically deep learning that can be achieved very quickly by AI, is already changing the game, and will continue to do so increasingly.

Where does that leave us? Universal income is a good idea, and somewhat of a start, but it doesn’t even begin to cover the changing landscape of equitable employment and a fair, living wage.

We need to start thinking differently in order to incorporate us all into the future. And by future, I don’t mean a hundred years from now. These are issues that need to be addressed somberly and aggressively, now, in real time and onward.

I foresee that we will inevitably be forced to craft a socialist society. The way we exist and operate at this moment will not work in 30, 40 years. We will become more like Norway, Denmark, etc., and if done correctly, that’s not a bad thing.

One of our biggest challenges as a nation, is that we have a significant portion of our voting citizenry who don’t understand basic economics, and therefore see what is already our socialism laden government, as a certain dystopian future, as currently witnessed in Venezuela. The problems there have nothing to do with a well planned society, and everything to do with the exploitation of a country by a corrupt government.

Americans, even poor ones, are hooked on this idea of an ever looming prosperity even when all evidence shows that they are not benefiting at all, whatsoever, from the status quo. Instead of seeking out ways to change their current landscape, they allow themselves to be fed a diet of constant lies and misinformation, in order to wallow in justified resentment, self pity, and outrage. They are not only unwilling, but very much so unable to identify what it is exactly, that would benefit them, and serve them well, because they are simply not educated enough to understand or identify it. And I’m genuinely not attempting to speak ill or lowly of Americans who have been without educational opportunities and grew up in places like the rust belt or the Bible Belt or the south. I never understood it, until I saw it for myself. There are millions of us who have graduated high school in a best case scenario, yet are unable to spell, create proper sentences, use correct punctuation, conjugate, define words, or perform equations within basic arithmetic parameters. I cannot underscore how important this is, because it is firstly, true, and secondly, scary as fuck, because regardless of one’s ability to read, all Americans over 18 who are not incarcerated, can and do vote.

We need to educate our people. We need to educate them well, and we need to do it for free, and if we are to remain competitive in the following 3-4 decades, amidst all emerging markets, we will be forced to do it. The 1% understand this, and what we are seeing now, worldwide, is a rat race of those 1% doing anything and everything that they can wrap their hands around, before life as we currently know it, changes permanently.

Until then, yeah. Philanthropy will have to do, & I welcome it, even from someone like Epstein.

Housekeepers at Jeffrey Epstein’s tony Upper East Side townhouse took photos of themselves with famous faces, including Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton and the Duchess of York Sarah Ferguson.

Epstein staffer Jun-Lyn Fontanilla posted the undated photos on her personal Facebook page. The smiling snaps show her posing, often times alongside her husband Jojo, who also worked for the multimillionaire pedophile, with celebrities.

One pic is of the couple and Epstein, clad in a Harvard shirt.

“With our boss,” Fontanilla captioned it.

Another blurry photo appears to show actress Hilary Swank with Fontanilla, Jojo and four others, according to the Daily Mail.

The photos — which also feature model Petra Nemcova and actor Chris Tucker — were uploaded in March 2009, but it’s unclear when they were taken.

One appears to show Jun-Lyn and her husband with a much-younger Prince Andrew, who was formally married to Ferguson.

There is also one of Jun-Lyn posing inside Epstein’s home office — with his taxidermied tiger.

Reps for Swank, Nemcova, Clinton, Tucker and Ferguson didn’t immediately return messages, while a rep for the prince couldn’t be reached.

Fontanilla also didn’t return a message.
