30. He might have been murdered, though not necessarily by Trump,

but maybe by someone else who was also in legal jeopardy. Or else by a fellow inmate (people in jail for rape and/or child molestation are so commonly attacked by other inmates or guards that they have to be kept in segregation), though given the particular circumstances that seems unlikely. It's also possible that he really did hang himself. But the fact that there are loose ends, like the guards who were asleep and didn't check on him and falsified records, the video with three minutes missing, fans the conspiracy theory flames. It's going to be one of those things like the Kennedy assassination; there will be doubt forever and the conspiracy will live on. The FBI/DoJ will never be able to make the questions go away, and the harder they try the worse it gets. So the issue now isn't so much whether Epstein killed himself, but why are there so many unanswered questions?

Epstein squealing would have ended the Bannon fascist plot to begin with. Initech Jul 27 #3

According to Michael Wolff, Bannon and Epstein actually met many times after Bannon was out of the WH. mackdaddy Jul 27 #7

If Bannon didn't kill Epstein, he knows the people responsible. Initech Jul 27 #8

Bannon was mostly out at the time, but Bill Barr was AG and in control of the entire DOJ including prisons. mackdaddy Jul 27 #11
