Epstein is reportedly dead

[BIAD]

The hyoid bone, which is near the Adam’s apple, can be broken in a suicide by hanging, but is more common in strangulation murders.  

How about that.  

Even though one could struggle to rationalise that Epstein devised a hanging device in a highly-controlled situation,
the question can be asked how such an easy-lifestyle-loving person would acquire such information and have the
nerve to carry it out?

Hanging isn't a simple sudden task, that's why those who enjoy erotic asphyxiation do it. It's a slow action where
the person engaging in the activity (a Gasper) obtains sexual arousal from the starvation of oxygen.

Then there's the preparation, ignoring the reality that safety and prevention are watchwords in such facilities.
this man who was a novice in this class-level would have to know how to do his hanging and have the time for it
succeed. And all the time during the construction of his own death, his mind would have be set that this was his
only way out of his predicament.

Then there's the reason to do it in this manner. I doubt Epstein was trying to get his rocks off with this weird act
in the early hours and so, if it was a suicide attempt, Epstein would have to realise he would have to deal with
the natural reaction from his body.
It's doesn't like to die.

There are too many strange instances to have taken place to allow Epstein the opportunity to kill himself and even
if we accept the switched-off cameras, the guard situation, the cell-mate being moved, the suggestion that he 'leaned'
into his deed instead of suspending and the fact that his cell didn't even contain hanging properties and materials, Epstein
still had to have the fortitude to perform the act.

Considering a long-term prison for someone who had the connections and the wealth to make his life easy was available,
coming to the 'suicide' conclusion seems a bit hasty in my view. However, haste would be important if what he knew could
effect someone not in that cell.
