Let it play out. I know I ALWAYS ask that and nobody ever does because everyone had been deemed an expert by Googleing their favorite partisan web site and parroting the results.

You know that's a joke and the cape was red. Hopefully everyone here understands that some printed sources are not so complete or reliable as to constitute more than semi-reliable evidence in context. Trivial Pursuit type knowledge?

And heard a news story where the Zeppelin family thought it was a nice thing that an English band wanted to use their name. Tiny droughts from the Pierian spring. Sprinkled liberally and used to lubricate heated conversation thanks to the Leidenfrost effect. A gloss. That's not knowledge of the sort one uses respectfully when talking about another person's life or death. Oh, you set the Hindenburg afire. I guess the statue of limitations for that is over. Impressive act. You remember William of Hasings too? I like that you wrote "Death Camps" rather than "Concentration Camps". Those terms have recently come back to haunt us.

I can’t wait. It should as good as the Warren Report.

Sunday, the day of 'what if',...'maybe'...
What if: after sitting in Jail, alone; ..time to reflect, ...no drugs, distractions, internet, or 'lastest breaking news'; Mr. Epstein sees the Life he's led... Hedge-fonder, Island-izer, 'everything-is-kauflich mentality'.... the guilty feeling is too much. In order to save society the monetary costs, ..to save the victims further pain, ...to spare his friends the embarrassment... he becomes 'the man' he always wanted to be. ,.... does what is 'right'. no aliens, beta particles, or Russians. He's killed by,..'the Nice Guy in all of us'. 😊 His testament was changed, the day before(!), ...all the money is going to the Sisters of Mercy. Gallagher p.s.: How about the poor guys who lost their jobs(!) over this!..? Life ain't easy. |

Not sure I can manage much sympathy for anyone who lost his job over this; like they say...You had one job, one job, and you blew it.
But again, we don't really know what happened. The hard part is we may never know. This looked like one of the rare tantalizing times when the wall cracked a bit and the men behind the oak panels would be revealed. It's like one of those unsatisfying stories where it all turns out to be a dream.

We all know the coroner was originally the title of the officer with the duty of protecting the private property of the royal family, from Latin corona, literally "crown". And it may come as little surprise that the Grand Old Duke of York has been spotted in the “House of Horrors”.

It seems really sad that a man, who made a fortune from a wonderful understanding of trust, could not be trusted with my cat.

"This looked like one of the rare tantalizing times when the wall cracked a bit and the men behind the oak panels would be revealed.
It's like one of those unsatisfying stories where it all turns out to be a dream." (Landmark) Landmark, I really didn't know ANYTHING of Mr. Epstein,.. sorry Jeff. But today, as Prince Edward screamed and yelled and agrued 'for respect'.. and wondered a bit more. I know many joke about Wikipedia,...but I took a looksy, anyway. wOw! Mr. Epstein raised some sand in his short 65 years! From a middle class Brooklyn neighborhood,.. thru the White House, ..to his little own 'country',.. right next to 'David Copperfield-land'. Amazing(!). Amazing. Some folks seem to have MORE hours in the day, than I! There's a good bit of 'Wolf of Wall Street', in his biography,... X 3(!). I think, a 'film' of his life,.. or, a peek behind 'the oak panels',... would seem so 'un-believible'.. at least to a guy like me. (I thought 'The Wolf of Wall Street' was purely,...a good comedy.....) wOw. What there are for storys, outside the deck of cards....... Have a nice day, Gallagher |

Whatever the case may be, they will bury the evidence.

Just clarifying the difference between hanging and suicide. Hanging isn't what kills ya; it's the strangulation.
Despite the droves of oligarchs who apparently had motive to silence Epstein, I don't believe in conspiracy. The Bureau of Prisons was just removed by upstanding citizen AG Barr.

Actually, hanging usually breaks the neck. Breaking the second cervical vertebra actually but it depends on the drop etcetera.
