Americans Say Murder More Likely Than Suicide in Epstein Case
Rasmussen Reports ^ | August 14, 2019

Posted on 08/14/2019 8:18:46 AM PDT by rdl6989

Americans aren’t buying that disgraced financier and convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein killed himself in jail last weekend.

The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone and online survey finds that only 29% of American Adults believe Epstein actually committed suicide while in jail. Forty-two percent (42%) think Epstein was murdered to prevent him from testifying against powerful people with whom he associated. A sizable 29% are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Sure, it was suicide. It was like a perfect storm, what were the chances? The guards happened to be away, the cameras happened to malfunction, with those chances, maybe he should have bought a lottery ticket.

Oh, that’s right, he won the lotto. That guy has all the luck.

They said he was screaming right before he did it. I wonder what that was about.

The simple fact that the recorders were off ... I mean, there’s a point at which even the Sgt Schultzes of the world have to see stuff ... right?

I'm reminded of the title of that book by Christopher Hitchens: "No One Left to Lie To".

While the medical examiner took a lunch break, Epstein’s body cremated itself.

“They said he was screaming right before he did it. I wonder what that was about.”

He was probably having the greatest orgasm of his life and screaming with pleasure.

Even it it was not murder, folks, starting with Epstein’s own lawyers, worked pretty hard to give Epstein the opportunity to commit suicide.

1. Epstein’s lawyers petitioned to take him off of suicide watch even after he’d “attempted suicide” once before.
2. Petition was granted.
3. Epstein’s cellmate was moved.
4. Officers didn’t perform regular checks on Epstein.
5. Surveillance cameras in Epstein’s block were broken or disabled.

Since once is accident, and twice is coincidence, we’re well into enemy action here.

Yeah, I lean toward suicide. There’s no reason to doubt that the guy would have wanted to take that way out. He not only lost his freedom, but an empire, power, and a reputation. He was disgraced. The problem is that it’s pretty damned obvious that he was enabled in almost every possible way. So there in lies the foul play. String were pulled. That part seems pretty clear. Who pulled, them, and how. That part may never be known.

Trust the government!

Indeed!

And millions of morons actually want to increase the size, power, and reach of this Frankenstein's monster! And the politicians (!) who operate it, benefit from it, and use it to parasitize hard-working men and women!

POLITICIANS! (Of all people!) The most untrustworthy, self-serving, sleazy, corrupt, dishonest, exploitive, manipulative, power-hungry, parasitic group of people on the face of the earth!

When you consider the functioning intelligence level of most people, the miracle is that the world's not in worse shape than it is!

The people responsible wanted it to be obvious that it wasn’t a suicide. It’s a warning shot to anyone out there who might know stuff.

Ya think....No cellmate....no guards....no suicide watch.

“We came, we saw, he died!” (cackle, cackle, cackle) doesn’t just apply to Khaddafi, y’know.
