Bill Clinton is one of his friends. I would hate to be the company that sold him his life insurance policy.

Quote
Jeffrey Epstein, a wealthy, politically connected Florida financier, was arrested in New York on Saturday evening on sex trafficking charges, sources tell NBC 4 New York.

Epstein was expected to appear in federal court in Manhattan on Monday, two law enforcement officials said on a condition of anonymity.

He will face federal charges for incidents between 2002-2005, three senior law enforcement sources told NBC News.

A law enforcement official said Epstein would be charged with trafficking and conspiracy to traffic minors for sex.

A senior official briefed on the case said there were dozens of alleged underaged victims, some as young as 14.

Epstein allegedly paid minors cash for massages and then sex acts, the source said. He would then pay those alleged victims even more to bring him their friends or others who he would also allegedly pay for sex acts.

Epstein’s lead attorney Jack Goldberger, told NBC News he “declines to comment at this time.”

The crimes allegedly occurred at his homes on the Upper East Side and in Palm Beach, Florida.

Epstein was flying from Paris to New York on Saturday and was arrested at Teterboro Airport, the sources said.

Spokesmen for the FBI, the NYPD and the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of New York declined to comment.

"Jeffrey Epstein has evaded justice for too long - this child rapist belongs in prison and should not be allowed to post bail and hurt more girls," said Sen. Ben Sasse, R-Nebraska, the Chairman of the Senate Judiciary Oversight Subcommittee.

A 2008 deal ended a federal investigation that could have landed Epstein, now 66, in prison for life. Instead, he was allowed to plead guilty to lesser state charges that resulted in a 13-month jail sentence and required financial settlements to dozens of his victims. He also had to register as a sex offender.

The agreement was overseen by former Miami U.S. Attorney Alexander Acosta, who is now President Donald Trump's labor secretary. In the face of intense criticism, Acosta has defended the plea deal as appropriate under the circumstances.

Court documents show at least 40 underage girls were brought into Epstein's Palm Beach mansion for what turned into sexual encounters. Authorities say he had female fixers who would look for suitable girls, some local and others recruited from Eastern Europe and other parts of the world.

An attorney representing four of the girls in the 2008 case said they will continue to fight for all of his co-conspirators to be held accountable.

"With his money, Epstein was able to buy more than a decade of delay in facing justice – but fortunately he wasn’t able to postpone justice forever," said attorney Paul G. Cassell.

Epstein has maintained a home in New York City, a ranch in New Mexico and a private Caribbean island. Some of the girls were brought to those places as well, court documents show.

Epstein is a wealthy hedge fund manager who once counted as friends former President Bill Clinton, Great Britain's Prince Andrew, and Trump, who was his neighbor in Palm Beach at the time.

Report: Epstein to Name Individuals Involved in Underage Sex in Return For 5 Year Maximum Sentence


High profile culprits to be revealed?

By Paul Joseph Watson | INFOWARS.COM Monday, July 08, 2019

Disgraced sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein is set to give up the names individuals who paid for underage sex in return for a maximum prison sentence that will not exceed 5 years.

Epstein was arrested on Saturday night on charges of sex trafficking of minors.

“Epstein’s lawyer has already made a proffer to SDNY. Epstein will agree to cooperate with the investigation, including giving up the names of individuals that paid for activities with underage girls in exchange for a maximum sentence not to exceed 5 years,” tweeted OANN’s Jack Posobiec.

Given the raft of high profile people linked with Epstein, including Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew and Kevin Spacey, such names could be eyebrow-raising to say the least.

However, the possibility remains that Epstein could turn over lesser known persons who were implicated and protect his rich friends.

Bill Clinton flew on Epstein’s Lolita Express at least 26 times according to flight logs and the billionaire sex offender had 21 phone numbers for Clinton.

Others who have been connected to Epstein include a number of A-list celebrities, but many of them broke off contact with Epstein after he was convicted in 2008 for having sex with an underage girl.

The Clinton Presidential Library refused to hand over information relating to Bill Clinton’s ties to disgraced sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, it has been revealed.

Epstein was arrested Saturday night in New York for sex trafficking of minors.

Bill Clinton flew on Epstein’s Lolita Express at least 26 times according to flight logs and the billionaire sex offender had 21 phone numbers for Clinton.

Listed directly under “President William J. Clinton” is Kevin Spacey, who has been accused of molesting multiple people, including underage boys.

However, the just released Epstein indictment is absent any mention of Clinton or other high profile individuals.

“The Epstein indictment is disappointing and not nearly as aggressive as it could be. No mention of Prince Andrew or Bill Clinton,” tweeted Mike Cernovich.

This could get interesting. No matter how loyal a man is to his friends, the prospect of life in prison is pretty daunting.

I'll guarantee Bubba Bill was partaking in the fun.

Pelosi's daughter also said that some big name politicians from both side of the isle will be named before this is over.

Get out the popcorn.

That's what I'm hearing. I doubt anyone is going to make much hay out of this, because both sides are going to lose some people. But it sure will be entertaining.

The Jeffrey Epstein Case Has The Potential To Be The Biggest Scandal In American History

July 8, 2019 by Michael Snyder


We are about to open up a can of worms that could turn our entire country completely upside down by the time it is all said and done. Billionaire Jeffrey Epstein’s horrific crimes have been well known for a very long time, and I have been writing about them for many years. In fact, there were some people that really, really didn’t like it when I wrote about Bill Clinton’s connections to Jeffrey Epstein and “the Lolita Express” during the 2016 presidential election. Flight records show that Bill Clinton took 26 trips on board Jeffrey Epstein’s infamous private plane, and Clinton also spent an enormous amount of time on Epstein’s secluded private “sex island” where underage girls were routinely abused. Of course Jeffrey Epstein had lots of other very famous friends as well, and it has been documented that his “black book” was absolutely filled with marquee names from Hollywood, Wall Street and Washington. But despite everything that we knew about what was going on, for a very long time it looked like justice would never be served. Epstein got an absolutely ridiculous sweetheart deal from prosecutors in 2008, and none of his famous friends were ever charged with anything. They all probably thought that they had escaped the grasp of law enforcement forever, but this month everything has suddenly changed.

In recent days, authorities apprehended Epstein after his plane returned from an overseas trip, they raided his home, and they formally charged him with sex trafficking and conspiracy…

Fund manager Jeffrey Epstein used his wealth and power to sexually abuse dozens of young girls for years at one of the biggest mansions in Manhattan, paying them hundreds of dollars in cash for each encounter and hundreds more if they brought in more victims, U.S. prosecutors said.

Now, federal prosecutors are charging him with sex trafficking and conspiracy. They’re seeking to send him prison for years and seize that Manhattan home.

The indictment unsealed on Monday against the well-connected financier came days after his arrest upon returning from overseas and just hours after federal agents used a crowbar to enter the townhouse.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York is prosecuting Epstein, and they don’t mess around. They win more than 90 percent of the cases that actually go to trial, and Epstein has good reason to be shaking in his boots at this point.

And it is also extremely interesting to note that James Comey’s daughter is one of the prosecutors on this case…

Maurene Comey, daughter of former FBI Director James Comey, is reportedly a prosecutor in the new criminal case against convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. This details comes out of a new CNN report. The source is described as a person “with knowledge of the case.”

Will that turn out to be significant?

We shall see as this drama plays out.

In the legal community, everyone has an agenda, and the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York certainly has an agenda in this case.

But what is their goal?

Why have they decided to pursue this specific case at this specific time?

Perhaps the primary goal is to nail Epstein to the wall once and for all. If Epstein is convicted of all the charges against him, he will spend the rest of his life in prison. And if that is all there is to this story, it won’t be an enormous national scandal.

However, it could also be possible that the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of New York wants to use Epstein to get to one or more of his famous friends, and that is where things could get very “interesting”.

And the fact that this case “is being overseen by the Public Corruption Unit of the SDNY” would seem to indicate that something is up…

Second, what should we make of reporting that Epstein’s prosecution is being overseen by the Public Corruption Unit of the SDNY? Short answer: It’s too soon to say. It could mean that a public official is being investigated or will be charged with Epstein. That could be a minor public figure or a major one. It could mean that SDNY is investigating misconduct in the plea that Epstein was given in 2008. Or it could mean none of those things.

After everything that Epstein went through in 2008, you would think that he would clean up his life and get rid of all the stuff that got him into so much trouble in the first place.

But when authorities raided his home, they discovered a “vast trove” of photographic evidence…

Prosecutors said a search of Epstein’s Manhattan mansion after his arrest turned up a ”vast trove” of nude photos of what appeared to be underage girls. Officials said in court papers that the pictures included some on CDs with handwritten labels, including “Misc nudes 1,” “Girl pics nude” and the names of specific young women.

It has also previously been reported that in the old days Epstein would actually record “the sordid orgies he threw for VIPs at his luxury homes using cameras hidden in the walls of guest bedrooms”, but it is not known if those recordings still exist or if authorities were able to find any such recordings when they raided Epstein’s home.

In any event, there is clearly an enormous amount of evidence against Epstein already, and that means his only hope of avoiding prison for the rest of his life is to cooperate with authorities.

And as former federal prosecutor Elie Honig has pointed out, Epstein’s former friends from Hollywood, Wall Street and Washington should be quite scared right now…

We do not know if Epstein will cooperate, but even if he does not, others will very likely be implicated. It seems clear from the indictment that others helped Epstein run his alleged sex trafficking operation and otherwise participated in it. At least some of those names will come out in court proceedings, public filings, potentially trial and perhaps additional indictments. And it’s worth noting that the Epstein case is being handled by the SDNY’s Public Corruption Unit — in my experience, human trafficking cases usually are handled elsewhere in the office — which strongly suggests that public officials could be under a microscope here. Anybody who helped Epstein in any way needs to get a lawyer and get scared.

Of course Epstein could choose to sacrifice himself and protect his friends by not talking, but that isn’t likely to happen. In fact, Jack Posobiec is reporting that Epstein’s lawyers have already made it clear to the SDNY that their client will cooperate as long as he can get a reduced sentence…

SCOOP: Epstein’s lawyer has already made a proffer to SDNY. Epstein will agree to cooperate with the investigation, including giving up the names of individuals that paid for activities with underage girls in exchange for a maximum sentence not to exceed 5 years

In addition to Epstein’s potential testimony, just a few days ago a judge ordered the unsealing of records in a related case that detail allegations of “sexual abuse” by “numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known prime minister and other world leaders”…

This news comes just days after a judge ordered the unsealing of nearly 2,000 pages of records related to a civil case that could reveal how he and his accused accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell allegedly trafficked underage girls

The documents that will be unsealed are from a defamation case that was settled after Epstein entered a guilty plea guilty to a single charge of soliciting and procuring a person under age 18 for prostitution.

Records in the defamation case contained descriptions of sexual abuse by Epstein along with new allegations of sexual abuse by ‘numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known prime minister and other world leaders.’

We will talk about who some of those individuals might be in the second part of this series which I will post later tonight on The Most Important News.

I have been writing about corruption in the political world for a long time, but this could be the scandal of all scandals.

So stay tuned, because I believe that things are about to get extremely interesting.

How stupid is Jeffrey Epstein? Pretty stupid, I'd say. He's known for years that he was under investigation for child sex trafficking - and what do they find in his mansion when they raided it?

Nude photos of underage girls. You can't make this stuff up.

How did Jeffrey Epstein make his money? And did he ever make it at all? He is supposed to manage a hedge fund for billionaires - but who are they? His only known client left him ten years ago. And he is supposed to run a foreign exchange trading desk - but no one else who trades on that market has ever heard of him.

So, just what is his business? Is it working in the intelligence field? Money laundering? Blackmail? Or is it all one huge Ponzi scheme?

We may be about to find out.

Epstein victim testified Bill Clinton visited 'Orgy Island'
Contradicts former president's claim this week



A woman who accused Jeffrey Epstein of sexual molestation when she was a teen declared in an affidavit that she saw former President Bill Clinton on the billionaire hedge fund magnate’s private “Orgy Island.”

Her testimony contradicts Clinton’s statement earlier this week that he has never been to the island, known as Little Saint James, between St. Thomas and St. John in the U.S. Virgin Islands.

Epstein was forced to register as a sex offender in 2008 after receiving a lenient plea deal for allegedly paying girls for sexual massages. On Monday, a new indictment was unsealed charging him with molesting underage girls and sex trafficking.

Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre, who was known as Virginia Roberts at the time, said in a 2014 lawsuit that while she saw Clinton on the island, she did not see him engage in sex, the New York Times reported in 2015. Her claim has not been corroborated.

Clinton also asserted Monday he made only four trips on Epstein’s private jet between 2001 and 2003 and always was accompanied by his Secret Service detail. But flight logs obtained by FoxNews.com in 2015 show the former president took at least 26 trips on the Boeing 727 and ditched his Secret Service detail for at least five of the flights.

“Almost every time that Clinton’s name is on the pilot logs there are underage girls, there are initials, and there are names of many many girls on that private plane,” said investigative reporter Conchita Sarnoff, the executive director of Alliance to Rescue Victims of Trafficking and the author of “Trafficking,” in a Fox News interview Monday night.

Fox News reported in 2016 that Epstein allegedly offered sex to underage girls aboard the jet, dubbed by tabloids the “Lolita Express.” An air hostess testified the plane had a bed where passengers had group sex.

‘Pictures of Clinton’

Vanity Fair reported Tuesday that in the months before he ran for president, Donald Trump discussed with National Enquirer owner David Pecker how the Epstein sexual abuse scandal might affect the Clintons.

“Trump said that Pecker had told him that the pictures of Clinton that Epstein had from his island were worse,” recalled a former Trump organization employee.

On Monday, a Clinton spokesman issued a statement in response to the indictment: “President Clinton knows nothing about the terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in Florida some years ago, or those with which he has been recently charged in New York. In 2002 and 2003, President Clinton took a total of four trips on Jeffrey Epstein’s airplane: One to Europe, one to Asia, and two to Africa, which included stops in connection with the work of the Clinton Foundation.”

The spokesman also claimed that staff, supporters of the Clinton Foundation and Clinton’s Secret Service detail “traveled on every leg of every trip.”

“He had one meeting with Epstein in his Harlem office in 2002, and around the same time made one brief visit to Epstein’s New York apartment with a staff member and his security detail,” the spokesman said.

However, a March 1995 story by the Palm Beach Post reported then-president Clinton attended a three-hour dinner with a “very select group of people” at the Palm Beach home of business magnate Ron Perelman that included Epstein.

‘Your denials are worthless’

The Smoking Gun reported in 2015 regarding the lawsuit that Epstein had 21 different numbers for Bill Clinton in his phonebook. The report said several of Epstein’s victims “floated the possibility of subpoenaing Clinton.”

Newsweek cited a 2015 Gawker story on the pilot logs that found one flight included a softcore porn actress listed under “massages” in Epstein’s phone book. Gawker reported Clinton shared 11 flights aboard the 727 with Epstein’s longtime partner Ghislaine Maxwell and his former assistant Sarah Kellen, who have been accused in court filings of acting as pimps on Epstein’s behalf.

FoxNews.com reported attorneys for Epstein touted his close friendship with Bill Clinton in an attempt to boost Epstein’s image during plea negotiations in 2007.

In a 23-page letter, lawyers Alan Dershowitz and Gerald Lefcourt claimed Epstein helped start Clinton’s controversial family foundation.

“Mr. Epstein was part of the original group that conceived the Clinton Global Initiative, which is described as a project ‘bringing together a community of global leaders to devise and implement innovative solutions to some of the world’s most pressing challenges,” they wrote in a July 2007 letter to the U.S. Attorney’s office in the Southern District of Florida. “Focuses of this initiative include poverty, climate change, global health, and religious and ethnic conflicts.”

FoxNews.com said Epstein’s true role in creating the foundation could not be confirmed.

Breitbart News reported Thursday that Bill Clinton rape accuser Juanita Broaddrick dismissed Clinton’s claim that he “knows nothing” about Epstein’s alleged crimes.

“Your denials are worthless, Bill Clinton,” Broaddrick told Breitbart News.

“You raped me in 1978,” she said. “I have had to live with that horrific memory all these years while you made statements of denial through your attorneys. You were too much of a coward to say it yourself. The majority of Americans, including Democrats, now realize you are a sexual predator who has never been brought to justice.”

“It’s Going To Be Staggering”: Epstein Associates Prepare For Worst As Massive Document Dump Imminent

Now we await the documents

By Zero Hedge Thursday, July 18, 2019

As the Jeffrey Epstein case continues to unfold, a laundry list of celebrities, business magnates and socialites who have flown anywhere near the registered sex offender’s orbit are now tainted with pedo-polonium. Many of them, such as Bill Clinton, Ehud Barak, and Victoria’s Secret boss Les Wexner have sought to distance themselves from Epstein and his activities – however their attempts have fallen on deaf ears considering their extensive ties to the pedophile.

As Vanity Fair‘s Gabriel Sherman notes, “The questions about Epstein are metastasizing much faster than they can be answered: Who knew what about Epstein’s alleged abuse? How, and from whom, did Epstein get his supposed $500 million fortune? Why did Acosta grant Epstein an outrageously lenient non-prosecution agreement? (And what does it mean that Acosta was reportedly told Epstein “belonged to intelligence”?)”

Also illuminating is a statement by attorney Brad Edwards, who said during a Wednesday press conference seated next to Epstein accuser Courtney Wild that “There were other business associates of Mr. Epstein’s who engaged in improper sexual misconduct at one or more of his homes. We do know that,” adding “In due time the names are going to start coming out.”

What’s more, the US Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit will release of approximately 2,000 pages of documents, likely over the next several days, which may reveal sex crimes committed by “numerous prominent American politicians, powerful business executives, foreign presidents, a well-known prime minister, and other world leaders,” according to the court’s three-judge panel.

The documents were filed during a civil defamation lawsuit brought by Epstein accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre, a former Mar-a-Lago locker-room attendant, against Epstein’s former girlfriend and alleged madam, Ghislaine Maxwell. “Nobody who was around Epstein a lot is going to have an easy time now. It’s all going to come out,” said Giuffre’s lawyer David Boies. Another person involved with litigation against Epstein told me: “It’s going to be staggering, the amount of names. It’s going to be contagion numbers.” –Vanity Fair

Other famous names associated with Epstein include LinkedIn cofounder Reid Hoffman, Elon Musk, and Mark Zuckerberg, who Musk introduced to the registered sex-offender. Zuckerberg spokesman told Vanity Fair “Mark met Epstein in passing one time at a dinner honoring scientists that was not organized by Epstein,” adding “Mark did not communicate with Epstein again following the dinner.”

Musk told the magazine “I don’t recall introducing Epstein to anyone, as I don’t know the guy well enough to do so, Epstein is obviously a creep and Zuckerberg is not a friend of mine. Several years ago, I was at his house in Manhattan for about 30 minutes in the middle of the afternoon with Talulah [Riley], as she was curious about meeting this strange person for a novel she was writing. We did not see anything inappropriate at all, apart from weird art. He tried repeatedly to get me to visit his island. I declined.”

Uh, this is Jeffrey Epstein’s “friend” and alleged madam Ghislaine Maxwell with @elonmusk at the Oscars in 2014. These people were everywhere I suppose… pic.twitter.com/kCeIimdbCm

According to one source, Epstein had a steady stream of who’s who’s flowing into his Manhattan mansion, including Bill Gates, Larry Summers, and Steve Bannon.

“Jeffrey collected people. That’s what he did,” the source told Vanity Fair.

Thus far, the name most publicly associated with Epstein’s alleged crimes is famed lawyer Alan Dershowitz, who’s been waging a public battle with David Boies for years. In April, Boies’s client Giuffre sued Dershowitz for defamation after Dershowitz called her a liar (a strategy similar to that of seven of Bill Cosby’s accusers). In the days since the FBI arrested Epstein at Teterboro Airport a week and a half ago, Dershowitz has been going on television and dialing up friends and reporters to profess his innocence and label Giuffre and Boies liars. “I want everything to come out! I’m not afraid of anything because I did nothing wrong,” Dershowitz told me on the afternoon of July 15.

He called me a minute after I had emailed him for comment. He said he’d been friends with Epstein since 1996, when they were introduced at a party on Martha’s Vineyard by Lynn Forester de Rothschild. “She begged me to meet him. She told me, ‘here’s this smart academic.’” A few days later, Epstein invited Dershowitz to Les Wexner’s 59th birthday party at Wexner’s mansion in New Albany, Ohio. “It’s a tradition that Jeff invited the smartest person he met that year. He told them I was the smartest.” They remained close for years. Dershowitz strenuously denied ever participating in Epstein’s underage sex ring and said he’d only been in Epstein’s presence with his wife. “I got one massage!” he told me. “It was from a 50-year-old Russian woman named Olga. And I kept my shorts on. I didn’t even like it. I’m not a massage guy.” –Vanity Fair

“Epstein bragged about his contacts in Washington,” said attorney David Boies.

According to the report, “One theory circulating among prominent Republicans is that Epstein was a Mossad agent. Another is that the George W. Bush White House directed Acosta not to prosecute Epstein to protect Prince Andrew on behalf of the British government.”

“The royal family did everything they could to try and discredit the Prince Andrew stuff,” said Boies. “When we tried to follow up with anything, we were stonewalled. We wanted to interview him, they were unwilling to do anything.”

And now we await those documents. Meanwhile, Epstein’s bail hearing is scheduled for 11:30 a.m. on Thursday.

Did Jeffrey Epstein try to kill himself? Did someone else try to kill him? Or did he fake the whole thing, in hopes of getting a transfer? We may never know for sure, but this will undoubtedly spark a couple more conspiracy theories.

That's the meme that's running all over FB now, too. Just my guess, but Epstein is a pretty manipulative SOB who was shocked that he was denied bail, and probably did something to himself to try to gather some sympathy and a reconsideration of bail.

I doubt it's going to work.

I don't buy the suicide bullshit. Epstein had too much dirt on a lot of big name players. Someone shut his mouth permanently.

I can only assume he was in "protective custody," where other inmates couldn't reach him. If he were in my jail, he would have been.

Suicide? I don't know. In my time at the jail, there was only one "successful" suicide by hanging. And that really wasn't a suicide, but an autoerotic asphyxiation gone wrong. We called it suicide, because we figured the family would like that answer better, and because it's still technically a suicide.

After he supposedly made one failed attempt...the genius in charge took Epstein OFF suicide watch. Yeah right, that makes a lot of sense. I ain't buying it. It's either a set up or the morons running the zoo really are incredibly stupid.

He was apparently in a "special housing" area of the institution, the same thing as protective custody. I would think it unlikely another inmate could get to him.

I don't know how it works in New York, but here in Tulsa it would be very unusual to keep an inmate on suicide watch for six days. After three days he is evaluated by the psychiatrist and either returned to a housing unit, or transported to a psychiatric hospital for further evaluation and treatment. I would imagine the psychiatrist at Epstein's institution is going to be answering a lot of questions.

Many people,including his atttornies, claim he said that someone tried to kill him and that he wasn't suicidal. They're demanding to see the unedited surveillance video. And, why were the guards who were supposed to be on watch mysteriously absent?

Good questions. Personally, I wouldn't be surprised to learn his death was a case of autoerotic asphyxiation gone wrong. Epstein was one sick SOB, I wouldn't put it past him.

Surveillance video should show when officers checked, or at least walked past, his cell. It wouldn't show what was happening in his cell. Contrary to a lot of reports I've seen lately, there are no cameras inside a cell. If someone was entering or leaving his cell, the cameras should catch it - assuming the camera was pointed in the right direction. Not all institutions have cameras that capture everything in a pod or cellblock continuously, but are panned around.

Here's a thought: If Epstein really did have a lot of dirt on people - and nearly everyone assumes he did - wouldn't he have a "life insurance policy?" Give his attorneys all the dirt he has, or put it in a safe deposit box to be opened in the event of his death, and make it known that if anything happened to him, it would all come out anyway. I'm surprised we haven't seen any speculation about this.

And with that, I have just become a conspiracy theorist. it really is easy to do! laugh

Answers To Epstein Death In High Demand

Suspicious circumstances surrounding death fueling speculation of elite hit job

By Jon Bowne | INFOWARS.COM Sunday, Aug 11, 2019

If the highly questionable suicide of Jeffrey Epstein had happened in another country, we would all be laughing at how corrupt that country is.

Instead, those countries are laughing at us. Jeffrey Epstein, the elite’s pedophile pimp, is dead – something everyone saw coming a mile away, including Epstein himself. Who, according to the Daily Mail, had told guards that someone was trying to kill him.

An ex-inmate told the New York Post that it would have been impossible for Epstein to kill himself. Yet there is still no way to tell because the staff at MCC has yet to say anything, even though this incident is of grave national importance when it comes to any American having a shred of trust in the government again.

We are told Epstein, hanging onto life and soon to suffer cardiac arrest on the way to the hospital, was wheeled out of New York City’s Metropolitan Correctional Center around 7:30 am, just a day after co-conspirators had been revealed in 2015 court documents and 2016 depositions where Virginia Giuffre who told the Mail on Sunday that Epstein loaned her out to the high-profile people and claimed that she had to report back with details relating to blackmail.

Giuffre also revealed how Epstein’s madam, Ghislain Maxwell, pimped Giuffre out to powerful names for erotic massages and sex which included modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, and wealthy financier Glenn Dubin. In those released documents, Dubin’s butler recounted the testimony of a Swedish teen who had been held against her will on Epstein’s notorious pedo island. While modeling agent Brunel was accused of supplying Russian teens that didn’t speak a word of English: signs of an international sex-trafficking network.

Of course, we are supposed to believe the Clinton cleanup crew over at the FBI is on top of it. And the Justice Department. And why did former Deputy Attorney General Rod Rosenstein pop up at the outset of all of this anyway? But as Cassandra Fairbanks at the Gateway Pundit reported, there aren’t any mainstream media outlets at MCC asking the same questions.

Questions like, Were the guards that were stationed to watch Epstein told to leave the area due to ‘maintenance? Why did the security camera mysteriously break during that time. Why is there a bruise on Epstein’s face? And how did Epstein die exactly? Is the case actually over? And didn’t Maxwell aid and abet? How long before she disappears? And ultimately how deep does this go? Who did Epstein work for?

His wealth and Saudi Arabian passport remain major mysteries. Sure it’s early, but the longer these questions go unanswered the more the people responsible for the incompetence surrounding Epstein’s death create their own conspiracy.

Epstein’s Cellmate Was Transferred Out Day Before “Suicide”

Wow, what a coincidence.

By Paul Joseph Watson | INFOWARS.COM Monday, August 12, 2019

Jeffrey Epstein’s cellmate was transferred out the day before the billionaire sex trafficker’s alleged “suicide,” meaning there was no witness to observe it.

What a stunning coincidence.

“Epstein was supposed to have a cellmate,” reports Fox News. “But the person who was assigned to share a cell with Epstein was transferred on Friday before the 66-year-old’s death.”

“It was not immediately clear why the cellmate was transferred nor why no one else was assigned to room with Epstein.”

It was also revealed that correctional officers working at the prison didn’t check on Epstein for “hours” before his suicide despite being required to do so every 30 minutes.

Some have blamed overworked guards for the inability to check on Epstein, but only one other inmate at the facility successfully carried out a suicide attempt in the last 21 years.

Epstein was taken off suicide watch at the end of July despite supposedly attempting to kill himself a week before.

According to some reports, Epstein had been warning guards and other prisoners that someone was trying to kill him.

A prison insider also said that Epstein appeared to be in good spirits before his alleged suicide.

“There was no indication that he might try to take his own life,” said the source, “From what I saw, he was finally starting to adjust to prison. I think he was comforted by the rigidity of his new life.”

Inmates at prisons, and especially jails, come and go pretty regularly, so it's not surprising to me that he didn't have a cellmate. What is surprising to me, since he was in Special Housing - the equivalent of Protective Custody - was that he had a cellmate at all. It is the same thing as solitary confinement.

I still like my autoerotic asphyxiation theory. he was a sick pervert, and it wouldn't surprise me at all.

Giuliani: “50 Very Important People” Wanted Epstein Dead, Circumstances of Death “Mind Boggling” and “Impossible to Happen”

Trump's attorney said "almost everything within view" at "relatively small" lockup

By Infowars.com Tuesday, August 13, 2019

There were at least “50 important people” who had motive to want Jeffrey Epstein dead, Rudy Giuliani said.

President Trump’s attorney – and ex-New York City mayor – said those people would have had a “tremendous motive to kill him” and that the Manhattan lockup where Epstein was housed is so small that “almost everything is within view” of guards.

“There’s probably 50 very important people who have a motive to kill him,” he said Tuesday on Fox. “Not alleging anyone named, but it’s true. We know some people are in a lot of trouble because of Epstein and they know who they are.”

“There’s tremendous motive to kill him.”

Giuliani also added that “this argument whether he was on suicide watch or not is silly” because the Metropolitan Correctional Center is a small facility.

“There’s absolutely no excuse,” he continued. “What happened here, to me, is mind boggling.”

“It’s impossible to happen. It’s a relatively small facility; this isn’t Rikers Island which is 15,000 people in virtually a city…”

“[The Metropolitan Correctional Center is] one building, [with] almost everything within view if you want it to be.”

He also said it was unheard of for a prisoner to only be placed on suicide watch for a week.

“The conditions were no different the day he attempted suicide,” Giuliani stated.

It’s also worth noting that Giuliani was a federal prosecutor in Manhattan before becoming mayor.

The latest news, the two officers, who put in the log book that they checked on Epstein every thirty minutes, were actually asleep for three hours.

I don't much care for conspiracy theories, but you just can't avoid them in this case. At least one of those theories must be true. Which one, I don't know.

Jeffrey Epstein Autopsy Reveals His Neck Was Broken in Multiple Places – Reports


The sources claimed that such injuries can happen either to people who hang themselves or those who are strangled

By Sputnik Thursday, August 15, 2019

Earlier, NBC News cited unnamed sources as saying that the two guards tasked with watching the late accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein may have been sleeping when he apparently committed suicide in a New York City jail cell last week.

While the results of post-mortem medical examination have yet to be officially announced, The Washington Post has cited unnamed sources as saying that an autopsy of US financier and accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has revealed that he had several broken bones in his neck.

The sources claimed that such injuries can happen either to people who hang themselves or those who are strangled.

Despite the fact that an autopsy has been performed, it has been unclear if the medical examiner has made a final determination into the cause of death, while an investigation into his apparent suicide is underway.

The WaPo report comes after several unnamed sources were quoted by NBC News as saying on Wednesday that two guards tasked with watching Epstein may have been sleeping when he apparently committed suicide in a New York City jail cell.

The sources also argued that the guards are suspected of falsifying log entries to show that they were checking Epstein in his cell every 30 minutes. Epstein reportedly died one to two hours before his body was found.

US Media Reveals Details of Epstein’s Apparent Suicide

This comes after CBS News reported on Tuesday that screams were ostensibly heard from Epstein’s cell on the morning of his death last week.

Guards reportedly yelled “breathe, Epstein, breathe!” while attempting to revive him after discovering him hanged in his Manhattan cell.

Earlier, the New York Post reported that the 66-year old accused sex trafficker had hanged himself with a sheet from the top bunk of his prison cell bed. The newspaper cited an unnamed source as saying that Epstein had knelt on the ground and bent forward to strangle himself.

Commenting on Epstein’s attempted suicide, President Donald Trump said that he is “absolutely” demanding a full-fledged investigation into the matter, while Attorney General William Barr told reporters that “any co-conspirators should not rest easy”.

“I was appalled – and indeed the whole department was – and frankly angry to learn of the MCC [Metropolitan Correctional Centre]’s failure to adequately secure this prisoner. We are now learning of serious irregularities at this facility that are deeply concerning and demand a thorough investigation,” Barr said.

Epstein reportedly was on a suicide watch after an earlier suicide attempt in July, but attorneys pushed for him to be taken off the watchlist shortly before his death on 10 August at the MCC cell where he was awaiting trial on charges of running a sex trafficking ring involving minors.

Will Julian Assange be next to "commit suicide?"

Quote
The death of millionaire sex offender Jeffrey Epstein behind bars should trigger “system-wide self-reflection” on how prisoners are treated. The Metropolitan Correctional Center “is sort of like an American gulag for people who have not been convicted of anything,” Epstein lawyer Marc Fernich said.

Epstein had at least some dirt on some high-powered people like Bill Clinton and he could very well be dead because he was going to talk.

And another person currently jailed for giving the American public information the United States government desperately wanted to keep secret, is Julian Assange. His health is failing and the highly dubious death of Jeffrey Epstein in a U.S. maximum-security prison is another strong reason not to extradite Assange into one.


Epstein’s death has gotten his lawyer to speak out about the conditions in American prisons, likening them to the gulags of the Soviet Union. MCC is “institutionally ill-equipped” to deal with someone like Epstein who wouldn’t last long in general population but who isn’t a hardened criminal, Fernich explained to RT. “This is one of the toughest pre-trial detention facilities in the country. And the conditions are inhumane.” Epstein, he insists, was “presumed innocent,” despite his 2008 conviction for soliciting underage prostitutes – part of a slap-on-the-wrist plea deal the fallout from which culminated in this year’s sex trafficking charges – and should not have been confined in such “barbaric” conditions.

But there is every reason to fear Assange is already in danger, in Belmarsh maximum-security prison, where he is currently incarcerated. Assange did the unthinkable. He exposed the government for what it really is: a corrupt authoritarian entity that firmly believes it has the right to enslave everyone else. Pressenza wrote: “The Establishment has conspired to reduce his ability to defend himself in court. I am not convinced it is not conspiring to destroy him.”

Quote
Do not forget Julian #Assange. Or you will lose him.
I saw him in Belmarsh prison and his health has deteriorated. Treated worse than a murderer, he is isolated, medicated and denied the tools to fight the bogus charges of a US extradition. I now fear for him. Do not forget him.

— John Pilger (@johnpilger) August 7, 2019


John Pilger has been attempting to alert the public to what several governments are attempting to do to Assange for the crime of publishing the truth.

Quote
Visiting Julian #Assange in prison I glimpsed his barbaric treatment. Isolated, denied proper exercise, access to the library, a laptop, he cannot prepare his defence. He is even denied calls to his US lawyers. His UK lawyer wrote to the governor on 4 June. Silence. How lawless.

— John Pilger (@johnpilger) August 11, 2019


Truth is treason in the empire of lies. Deaths like Epstein’s had the benefit of at least waking up some of the public to the lies and deception by the propaganda outlets also known as the mainstream media. They are desperately trying to silence anyone who questions the establishment’s official narrative. But even Fernich himself is “skeptical” about the medical examiner’s conclusion that Epstein committed suicide. “It would not surprise me… to learn of anything that might have happened to Jeffrey Epstein,” he says, adding that Epstein’s mysterious death will be the subject of discussion for decades. Similarly, the mainstream media has blood on their hands when it comes to Assange, according to another tweet by Pilger.

Quote
Watch this revelation by Mark Davis, the award-winning journalist and lawyer, a crucial witness to the Guardian's and NY Times' betrayal of Julian #Assange who faces extradition for what they did, too. Note their silence as #Assange fights for his life.https://t.co/n3oABBDDdX

— John Pilger (@johnpilger) August 10, 2019


“People in the United States are skeptical of anything that the government puts out because the intelligence-gathering process in our country has been weaponized for political ends,” said Fernich.
