there is zero reason for anyone to believe Epstein killed himself even if we are given direct evidence from the state itself. everything from them is suspect and should not be trusted regardless of the quality provided. why would anyone listen to the words of a government that inherently distrusts its citizens and wants, objectively, the worst for them? even if Epstein actually did kill himself we are never going to accept that as a society and honestly, we shouldn't, because this is absolutely something those in power would do and we should never forget that or become complacent to it.

Honestly occam’s razor says that there is likely no amazing smoking gun detailing all these people and all the terrible things they did like the right (and beyond but hear me out) has been claiming without evidence for years, but rather there are probably just some travel logs that hint or imply if you squint hard enough and aren’t really that interesting or damning on their own. So now the conspiracy theorists control the White House and with it the flow of information, they have the opportunity to release the information they swear exists, and yet the conspiracy doesn’t work anymore because they can’t claim “the powers that be” are protecting anyone without attacking Trump now.
The beflief is that Epstein collected and kept evidence that he could use to blackmail his wealthy and powerful clients, either on behalf of an intelligence agency which he had claimed to have ties to, or just to protect himself and gain personal influence and power.
This isn't a right wing conspiracy, it cuts across the US political spectrum

Right. They had videos from Diddy and couldn't take him down beyond the smaller charges. People seem to forget you need proof beyond a reasonable doubt for a criminal conviction.
Epstein's client list was for blackmail - not prosecution by due process of law. All he had to do was threaten Mr Moneybags about that time he went to town with a girl and now Epstein suddenly has tens more millions of dollars.

There is no evidence... anymore.
No one ever asks why Epstein was allowed to kill himself. Who gave the order to take him off suicide watch? I remember people at the time screaming that it was a bad idea.
Why didn't he suicide himself the first time he was in jail?
I didn't hear too much about the first time. I don't remember it. I know he was on suicide watch. Then he suddenly wasn't with every medical professional saying he needed to stay on suicide watch. Was he on suicide watch the first time?
