#1 Epstein said nothing about the charges when he was arrested.
Not while in jail.
Nothing.
He was not going to ever say anything again.
He made sure of that himself.
Suicide.
Look at the face in the picture above.
The look of a man who has nothing to say to anyone.
Ever.

#2 Epstein's lost verbal testimony isn't as important as people think. There is substantial documentation, including his diary which, if corroborated, will have plenty.

#3 Ah the consequences of coopting and corrupting institutions in the pursuit of power. The fall out is a zero trust society. Why should anyone believe in the legitimacy of the next big election?

#4 #2 Epstein's lost verbal testimony isn't as important as people think.

The investigation can go on without him. Where is Ghislaine Maxwell these days? She probably knows much of what went on. Since Prince Randy Andy's name has been spilled across the news media. She's not likely in GB but maybe. There is Virginia Roberts Giuffre and others who can still testify such as Rachel Chandler. His seized computers and documents are available. Financial records should be available. There are Epstein employees in various locations who can be interviewed. Possible witnesses need to be protected.

#8 No worries. I think this is the second judge in the Epstein saga to die, of old age.. The first was the judge that sealed the records and gave him his 18 month deal.

#11 When I first heard about it I joked it was a set up, like most did. I figured the guards that would do it would be moved in. They would get paid very well, they would take the fall for being incompetent, and get fired. The union would then come back and get them rehired or negotiate a golden early retirement for the guards. Unfortunately, I suspect the guard will die in a car accident or suicide.

Put Ruth Bader Ginsburg on this case. It is that important.
