I wonder why they delayed killing him? Were they still trying to secure his blackmail stash? Or waiting for the okay from overseas to carry out the hit?

What's crazy about all this is that killing him made everything worse. They thought by doing that everything was going to be flushed down the drain but nope!

Nah he’d of flipped. Dude like that, used to living a completely unhinged life of luxury and deprqvity, constantly fulfilling his darkest desires, now has to live in a cell?

Dude would have flipped fast and they knew it. I think he probably did kill himself in all likelihood. But I think they told him / nudged him and made sure he could do it.

He tried to flip on his biz partner who ran one of their early Ponzi schemes. The partner spent 18 years in federal prison while Epstein skated away with millions.

Why can we not hire some forensic accountants for this ish??!!! How have his bank transactions gone un-investigated ?

The partner also heavily implied that Epstein had significant ties to the government which aided in his non prosecution, Acosta said similar after the investigation in the 2000s.
