Disturbing evidence in Jeffrey Epstein’s autopsy points to his murder: pathologist
2020-01-17
[NYPOST] Jeffrey Want Some Candy, Little Girl? Epstein
...A high class pimp financier who was alleged to maintain a stable of underage whores sex slaves who were paid big bucks to entertain the rich and/or famous. He is a registered sex offender and made att least 17 out-of-court settlements with former members of his stable, with some cases still ongoing. 2011 court docs reveal that 21 email addresses and phone numbers for Bill Clinton and an aide were found in Epstein's electronic black book, and that Clinton frequently flew with Epstein on his private plane between 2002 to 2005. But really, they were probably just discussing finance or politix or something. While getting massaged. Then things got serious, Jeff was tossed in the slammer in New York and then he killed himself. Really. That's what happened...
’s eyes had burst capillaries after his body was found in his Manhattan jail cell, suggesting that the convicted pedophile was likely murdered through manual strangulation and did not hang himself, a forensic pathologist says in a TV interview.

In a clip provided to The Post from a "Dr. Oz" special set to air Thursday, former New York City Medical Examiner Dr. Michael Baden discusses his theories and examines graphic photographs.

Among them are the burst capillaries and the fact that Epstein’s lower extremities were pale and not purple or bluish, which he said would have been the case had he hanged himself in August at the Manhattan Correctional Center.

"The blood settles after we die. The so-called lividity, if you’re hanging, the lividity is on the lower part on the legs. These would be like maroon/purple, front and back and they aren’t," Baden tells Dr. Mehmet Oz.

Oz then shows gruesome images of Epstein’s eyes.

"These little hemorrhages, tiny little blood splotches. What do these particular hemorrhages, burst blood vessels, tell you? Why is it a red flag?" he asks the pathologist, who was hired by Epstein’s brother, Mark, to observe an autopsy on the disgraced financier.

#9  There was a light cord in Epstein's cell. Marks on his neck appear to be made by something like a light cord.

#7  There were a lot of unnecessary bedsheets in the cell. He could have been cocooned in them then killed.

#6  When garroting, one's victim struggles against their assailant leaving/giving defensive wounds and scattering DNA.

When hanging, one struggles against gravity.
That sucks.

#5  How would hanging vs garroting be different?

I would think there would be lots of 'types' of hangings that might produce different effects. It could have been a nice gentle suffocation or a two foot drop and snap, or some combo.

#3  Nothing heard lately about the 'sleeping jail guards' that were said to have been arrested. Are the guards still among the living, or have the potential assassins been assassinated ?

A botched job possibly? Jeffrey wasn't hungry and didn't eat his mid-rats laced with zolpidem tartrate. He was wide awake and violently protested his scheduled, jail cell hanging ?

Sorry boss, it just suddenly got very ugly. We are still going to get paid, right ?
