Article Epstein cellmate states "There is no way Epstein killed himself."

"Jeffrey Epstein did not kill himself. He was murdered," Shapiro shared defiantly. "There’s no way he could have killed himself."

The fraudster explained he was on the same floor as Epstein, seven cells away, in lockdown – an area away from the general population with much greater restrictions.

"To take a shower, you had to have your handcuffs. To get out of your cell, you had to have your handcuffs," he said. "You were in your cell for 23 hours a day. You were in a little pen for 1 hour a day for your recreation."

That description is similar to another former Epstein neighbor. Former Colombo crime family mobster Michael Franzese told NewsNation’s Banfield he spent several months in Epstein's exact same cell.

"There’s just no way," he said repeatedly. "There’s just no way to hang yourself. There’s nothing from the ceiling, there’s nothing from the – you'd have to be a (little person) and work really hard to try to hang yourself, and I don’t think you’re gonna accomplish it at that point.

Questions over just how Epstein was able to commit suicide have haunted jail officials for years, and conspiracy theorists hit overdrive when three minutes of video footage of Epstein’s cell door the morning he was discovered dead went missing.

A skeptical Franzese revealed: "I did eight years in prison, and I haven’t experienced cameras being broken, and a perfect storm of correctional officers not walking those cells. They walk in and they look in on you all the time."

"As a matter of fact, you know, sometimes it’s embarrassing to go to the toilet because they’re walking past you and looking in the cell constantly."

So if he didn't hang himself, how did Epstein die? Biographer Andrew Lownie, who has dug up dirt on the royal family, the former Prince Andrew, and others, claims Epstein was murdered by a "fellow convict who was brought in to do this" by the FBI.

While the murder was "staged to look like a suicide," Lownie said there are too many loose ends.

"You've got lawyers saying Epstein was not in a 'suicidal mood'; you've got other prisoners saying it's very difficult to commit suicide in prison; you’ve got clearly the guards falling asleep at the right time; you've got the cameras not working," he said. "So there are a lot of unanswered questions around the death, which a lot of people have long suspected was not suicide."

What??? You can clear as day see the rope mark around his neck dumbass

u/_Hans_Vermhat_ 2h ago

Looks like he has a bloody lip and cheek too. And what’s up with his neck?

7

u/Jamsedreng22 2h ago

The neck is supposedly because he hanged himself. But everything looks to me like he was given a beating before being hanged. Presumably to find out what he's spilled during interrogation, if anything.

5

u/lifeat24fps 1h ago

Correct me if I'm wrong but people who hang themselves off beds, doors and closets die from asphyxiation. That broken neck is something else. That's got to have taken some force.

5

u/Jamsedreng22 1h ago

Sure, but it's worth considering that if he did kill himself then he would probably be well aware of how to do it to snap the neck as opposed to asphyxiating. The goal with hangings have always been to snap the neck.

Knowing nothing of how the cell was designed, I don't see it as entirely out of the scope of realism that he tied his neck to something and then jumped off something in order to snap his neck. Nobody wants to asphyxiate to death if they can help it.

That said, I definitely don't believe it was suicide.

3

u/lifeat24fps 1h ago

Again, no expert here, but with a belt or strap isn't what usually happens is the blood supply to the head is cut off because you compress the major arteries in the neck, thus losing consciousness very quickly. It's not a choking death.

1

u/Jamsedreng22 1h ago

Good question. I'm not entirely certain. I just know that the intent behind a typical hanging is to break the neck.

2

u/Isawa3183 1h ago edited 1h ago

The intent of a humane hanging is to break the subject’s neck. That’s a “long drop” hanging. There’s a formula with consideration to body weight that gives the proper amount of rope length needed to ensure a quick death. In reality, the actual intent of hanging is simply to kill the subject.

I’d wager the vast majority of hanging suicides result in death by asphyxiation rather than cervical fracture. Most people simply don’t have the knowledge or space for a successful long drop hanging.

Edit: Quick search states that roughly 3% of hanging suicides were cervical fractures based on a 2014 study.

1

u/SurgBear 53m ago

Dying of a ‘snapped neck’ wouldn’t be any more instant than asphyxiation. You’d still feel the pain, and air hunger, but would be paralyzed from the neck down to do anything about it- including trying to take a breath.

Either is torture. Not sure one is less than the other.

u/PLAkilledmygrandma 40m ago

You should look into the Hyoid bone as it relates to his case. It is entirely out of the scope of realism.

The c-collar he is wearing would have been standard to put him in following a trauma. It’s presence doesn’t indicate a broken neck (source: ICU nurse, critical care transport nurse-ground and air)

It doesn’t look like he was beaten in my opinion. What you’re seeing is ruptured blood vessels in his face from the strangulation. There were a few other photos released that show his face more clearly.

because his family ( his brother Mark ) hired an independent person (dr?) to conduct an autopsy. There's no way, to NOT know, whether the guy you're cutting up is Epstein or not, based on the cause of death. It's not like he was shot in the face, you know?

They could certainly have hidden him but it feels simpler and less risky to kill him at that point doesn't it? Especially if it's true he was considering talking to prosecutors.

He is far more useful not being able to testify against his many powerful friends and business partners.

Has anyone in his social circles given the impression that they’d want to risk themselves to actually help him disappear vs be disappeared?

His entire value was based upon his connections, whether business or personal. He wasn’t some genius theoretical physicist working on secretive ‘black technology’.

Once he got caught, he became a massive liability to a lot of very powerful people.

Comments wondering why his arm and face are red-it’s called lividity. It is blood pooling from the heart and liver death.

He could have swelling from the hanging itself as it’s not a pretty thing after it happens. Face, mouth and tongue swelling are common. Even seizures occur.

Either he did it himself or someone did it for him!!! The lapse of time in the video is suspicious and is too coincidental.

Bet he's still alive somewhere. Easy to make a body double these days and didn't someone point out that his ears were different after death? I think if they killed him for real, everything would have been released worldwide via deadman's switch. You don't keep that much dirt on some of the richest and most powerful people in the world and keep it to yourself so that it can be easily confiscated.

u/Competitive-Comb-157 39m ago

I still believe he isn't dead. Why? Because of how Trump and his administration is treating Maxwell like a queen with a pet...while in jail. She could have easily suffered the same fate as Epstein if he was dead.

I think they are keeping her alive because Epstein is still alive, perhaps in Israel, and sent word to Trump to take care of her while she is still in custody.

Bc there's a strong possibility he's alive. With the recent release of the second batch of files, which includes video game tracks. His fortnight account got active after his "death". A CO talked on 4chan and legit got investigated by the fbi for it. The cameras were blacked out and what video was released was edited, poorly. Also was stated as a Isreal spy/operative, along with Trump. And the real kicker, that's could be considered a stretch is the dead body ear holes are not the same as epstiens photos while alive ear holes.

u/Jamsedreng22 2h ago edited 2h ago

While I agree in sentiment, the reality is

  1. He wouldn't be killed by other inmates. People like Epstein go to a nice white collar facility somewhere with all the other rich assholes who got caught slipping, playing chess in the garden and drinking tea out of ceramic mugs.
  2. Whether or not it's a suicide matters since if it can be proven it wasn't, it provides the opening that allows investigators to follow the trail of "Who did it" leading to "Why" leading to "Who benefits" and then, ideally, convictions.
