| US attorney general: Epstein's death 'perfect storm of screw ups' |
| 2019-11-23 |
| [Aljazeera] William Barr says he was initially suspicious of the death, but now does not believe there was foul play. US Attorney General William Barr has said he initially had his own suspicions about financier Jeffrey Epstein's widely-speculated-on death while behind bars at one of the most secure jails in the United States, but came to conclude that his suicide was the result of "a perfect storm of screw-ups". In an interview with the Associated Press news agency, Barr said his concerns were prompted by the numerous irregularities at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York where Epstein was being held. |

| #11 Still think they Pentangeli'd him. He probably did it in a way that would create the maximum amount of conspiracy guessing as a way to screw with whomever was screwing him. |

| #10 Sometimes, one can work backwards from a desired outcome and project sufficient event unlikelyhoods to generate plausible doubt. |

| #6 He added that he personally reviewed security footage that confirmed that no one entered the area where Epstein was housed on the night he died. Not confirmation, a data point. Anyone who has been paying the least bit of attention the last few years knows that photographic evidence ain't what it used to be. Facial replacement is a standard visual effect. Even without CGI, Hollywood could stage the whole thing. Grainy security footage only makes the job easier. Show me the script and I'll show you the 'evidence'. |

| #5 He did kill himself! He did! The voodoo doll strangled itself, which made him do it too! It was a perfect suicide! |

| #4 Sounds like Barr is not ready to kill himself too... |

| #3 Said it before; when an incident requires the co-incidence of a number of unlikely factors, you're, in effect, multiplying fractions. And that means you get to a very small value very quickly. That's where "...and tell me it's raining" comes in. To end the suspicion will require proving the failures happened frequently or perhaps regularly and not specifically all together this one night. |

| #2 Ah Jesus, not him too. Epstein didn't kill himself. ABC and CBS both covered for him, and instead of rewarding the whistleblower, fired her. That is NOT how journalism operates. |

| #1 He added that he personally reviewed security footage that confirmed that no one entered the area where Epstein was housed on the night he died. Ah'll believe it when I see the video timestamps AND can verify the cell location. |
