Former Maximum Security guard does an AMA on Reddit in regards to Epstein's death.

[Swede]

One of the questions - What is the number one B/S thing about what happened?
A: The cameras. In any normal situation, if Jeffrey Epstein entered your facility, every OIC would have done redundant systems checks to make sure everything was working the way it's supposed to. The amount of focus and effort that would have went into making sure it was done right with him should have exceeded anything that resembles normal. That's basic human self-preservation.

They don't buy those cameras at Walmart. They are sturdy, resistant cameras with backup power that are designed to always be on. When a camera goes down it is considered emergency maintenance. Typically there would be people on the way to fix something like that immediately.

1. What is an AMA?

I love acronyms as much as the next person, but it can be hard to 'keep up', if you will.

[Swede]

2. Ask Me Anything.

[whathehell]

4. Yes

I have done that..Now I await an answer.

[highplainsdem]

5. LOL! AMA on Reddit means a visit from a notable person (artist, politician, expert of some type) who

will post replies to questions that Redditors ask a day or so in advance.

[Swede]

6. Cheeky!

[whathehell]

29. Indeed..

[Harker]

19. Another malicious abbreviation.

7. I couldn't figure that one out either

I'm really tired of obscure acronyms and very tired of looking up what they mean. Acronyms aren't efficient if people don't know what they mean.

[TheRickles]

8. And while we're on the subject, what's an OIC?

My guess would be Officer in Charge, but it'd be nice to know for sure.

[PatSeg]

10. The time spent writing out words and phrases

is often far less than the time we spend figuring out what they mean.

[PatSeg]

11. dupe

[llmart]

12. And here I was trying to figure out what the American Medical Association had to do with all this.

I agree with you.

[PatSeg]

17. Ha, ha, ha!

That AMA is very diversified!

[TheRickles]

18. For many AMA members, AMA also means "against medical advice".

So was the guard saying that Epstein died against medical advice? (insert emoji for dark humor)

[PatSeg]

28. Ha, ha, ha!

[alimbalt]

24. Agreed!

To use a quote from Bertolucci's 'The Last Emperor' -

“If you don’t know what you mean, how can you mean what you say?”

[PatSeg]

27. Great quote

I love that movie!

[artemisia1]

9. In other words, Epstein was either murdered or his death was faked and he's somewhere in a place like a ,

Caribbean island or Tel Aviv with extensive plastic surgery having been done on his face.

[TBF]

14. Could easily be in Tel Aviv -

I do remember in some of the witness statements I've read that he mostly likely speaks Hebrew (the woman didn't know which language for sure but what she described sounded like it to me).

[TheRickles]

16. I was thinking it was Yiddish. Probably spoken by his family of origin as NYC Jews, and similar enough

to Hebrew (ie, many "kh" sounds) to fool a non-speaker.

[TBF]

23. Yes that would make sense also!

it would be wild if he were still alive ... who knows.

I'm honestly surprised no one has gotten to Ghislaine yet.

[BattleRow]

15. Russia?

[multigraincracker]

13. In a city jail, yep. In a county jail, might.

In a state prison, not likely. In a federal high security prison, never.

Don’t ask me how I know.

[snot]

20. Worthwhile post.

One cavil: the author describes the following as constituting just one assumption: "Powerful people with a lot to lose had motive to ensure Epstein never testified. Someone with access and authority coordinated the conditions for his death or removal. The scene was managed before, during, and after." I wouldn't call that quite fair; I'd break it into:

Powerful people committed crimes and don't want to be exposed, and/or may want to continue to be able to use Epstein or his info for their own purposes, and having him alive might be the best way to further those concerns.

On behalf of those PTB, someone concocted the plan, and others had the means and opportunity to carry it out despite the risk of failure and blowback.

At least one such helper procured a corpse that looked enough like Epstein to pass for him and that had the right kind of injuries to pass for suicide.

Many helpers were successfully bribed or otherwise silenced, including not only the guards, but all those who brought him the extra sheets, took him out, drove the truck, and have dealt with him since (note that anyone who doesn't want to be exposed as having helped pull this off would now also be subject to blackmail by anyone who knew of their involvement).

Still a lot fewer assumptions than those listed in support of the official story.

Fwiw, the arguments I've seen in favor of a substitute corpse have generally claimed that the corpse's ear doesn't look like Epstein's. I've scrutinized the photo of the corpse that they've relied on and compared it to photos of Epstein alive, and I did not find the claimed discrepancy convincing; to me, it looked like it could be the same ear, just from different angles.

That said, I also saw something claiming that at least one other inmate had overheard Epstein berating himself for being too cowardly to off himself. For a while, that made me think the suicide must have been genuine; but then I realized that if Epstein knew of the plan to bust him out, he may have just been helping to set up the "suicide" interpretation. For whatever reason, I find it hard to imagine someone like Epstein berating himself for not committing suicide in a voice loud enough for others to hear.

21. We need to see some bodies!

Exhumations for Epstein, the so-called assassination victim and Chumps golf course wife!

Cadaver dogs should be all over his island and Zorro.

There must be dozens. Find one!

[hardluck]

31. So called assassination victim?

You lost me on that one. Who are you talking about?

[BidenRocks]

32. Chump's fake ear shot which supposedly killed

a man seated behind him.
That entire thing was Hollywood IMO!

[orangecrush]

22. Epstein was quite obviously whacked.

[calimary]

25. Hard to disagree.

26. Except it was the very outdated recording system that was on the fritz, not the camera itself

The self-preservation part was working i.e. the camera feeds were still going to the guard booths.

Horowitz’s report and related DOJ material describe the MCC New York surveillance setup as an old, analog camera system feeding into digital recorders that were prone to frequent failures.

How the system was described
The cameras themselves were characterized as antiquated analog devices that fed into DVR units rather than a modern, fully digital IP-based system.

The electronics technician told investigators the equipment was old, the recording devices frequently malfunctioned, and the overall analog system was poorly maintained.

The DVR system (“DVR 1” and “DVR 2”) relied on multiple hard drives that had a history of failures between 2017 and July 2019, culminating in the July 29, 2019 DVR 2 failure that stopped recording many cameras 12 days before Epstein’s death on Aug 10, 2019.

Horowitz was Obama's pick for DoJ IG and stayed in that role through IQ45 and Biden's terms.
