AngryRedHerringYou know... I bet Jeffery Epstein kept all those files so that no one would ever try murdering him in prison
I don’t think that was actually his motivation. I think he legit got off of having that power over people. ESPECIALLY people who have power and influence that dwarf his own, originally. BUT ALSO, the files show that he actually had a support structure and people that legit liked him (probably mostly cause of the evil shit he could pull off of their entertainment and “pleasure” shudder). So, no, even as a shower thought it’s off-base.
Happy he’s dead though, fuck him. People like him make me hope for a hell.
…Unless you subscribe to the theory that he was the operator of a blackmail factory for Mossad.
HEY MAYBE. It does kinda seem like Epstein may have had some spy training. But I just don’t get the impression that he was doing it to protect himself, it felt like “love of the game”. He didn’t really seem like someone that was fearing for his life till the very end when the doors started closing around him.
Way I heard it (back in Trump I) was that, yes, his primary motivation was to indulge himself, but he was quite happy to make more bank and influence when Mossad came to him. Who doesn’t like to profit off their hobby? And just like the CIA, Mossad doesn’t mind at all delving into the nastiest stuff if they can use it against powerful people and profit.
For what that’s worth. This came from following NATSEC types on Twitter the first time around.

TallonMetroidThat only really works if there’s a deadman’s switch and the people likely to murder you know that there’s a deadman’s switch. Which seems to not have been the case.
CosmicTurtle0 [he/him]Or the rich and/or powerful are so used to getting away with crimes that they had no problems committing first degree murder.
unspeakable_horrorHonestly, him still being alive and living free somewhere seems much more plausible than secret prison murder
True. He could have been spirited away in the time gap one the tape… But then there’s the autopsy. And Ghislaine…
Ya i dont want to go all Alex Jones on this but seems the same number of people would have to be ‘in on it’ for either a spiriting away or a murder. Paperwork can be falsified. Ghislaines can be tricked. I looked into where Epstein is buried and given his faith there would have been strict burial preps that require certain groups to participate but there are no records they did. Strangely enough his gravesite is unknown, although there are probably more practical reasons for that…
Except it’s easier to move a known dead body in public than it is to sneak a live body out of prison in secret.
And remember the stuff about his hyoid bone? The coroner said that the bone was broken in a manner typical to strangulation, and then Bill Barr and others came down on that basically saying “no it wasn’t” and then the coroner shut up. If the coroner was in on it, he would have given a more conspiratorially correct autopsy report; and add to that that he spent plenty of time with that body and would have known it wasn’t Epstein. He wouldn’t have mentioned the hyoid bone if he was covering for a substitute body.
My bad. It was collapsed on old.lemmy.world when I posted.
