[DangerousRhythm]

Source: NBC New York

Accused pedophile and wealthy Manhattan financier Jeffrey Epstein was found injured and in a fetal position inside his cell at a New York City jail, according to sources close to the investigation.

Epstein, who is being held in Metropolitan Correctional Center during his trial for conspiracy and sex trafficking, was found semi-conscious with marks on his neck, sources told News 4. Investigators are trying to piece together what happened, and have spoken to an accused killer who one source says may have attacked Epstein.

*shrug*

He's only starting to get a taste of what he deserves.

[Me.]

1. Was/Is This A Set-Up To Get Him Out?

[DangerousRhythm]

2. Could be a possible way to get a transfer. n/t

[Ponietz]

34. Saw this in another thread

[iluvtennis]

37. Leave his ass in jail and in solitary and not in general population and put him on

suicide watch. He just wants to claim jail is unsafe and he be returned to house arrest.

[Me.]

73. What Surprises Me

is I think I heard this morning that he is sharing a cell.

[Perseus]

58. Some people out there do not want him to talk

Hmmm...He should have 24/7 security, I feel there are people in very high places who are not interested in Epstein opening his mouth.

[2naSalit]

69. Whitey Bulger was suddenly transferred and died

bu being beaten to death shortly after the crime syndicate took over the Oval Office.

This POS can take down a lot of powerful people, he had better live long enough to testify.

Just sayin'.

[Traildogbob]

70. Exactly

Keep his ass alive, but fearful enough he talks and spills everything. Seems the law has T Rex arms but the arms of Putin and treasonous assets in the White House are longer than dozens of trump ties. Long arm of the law my ass. Useless under a lawless regime.

[Jose Garcia]

65. Season 3 of Daredevil

[Xipe Totec]

3. Put that guy under double secret suicide watch

And if you think this will help your appeal to get bail, think again, Jeffrey.

[mopinko]

4. they better keep that fucker alive till he can testify.

i dont think it will be easy, tho.

[bluestarone]

7. That's for sure

Double, triple suicide watch!

[volstork]

28. Amen.

Then, he deserves a slow, painful decline, suffering in the way they say all child abusers do in prison.

[handmade34]

52. not just heresay

I did time as a Correctional Officer, and I can attest to the fact that child abusers are targets in jail/prison... "inmate code"

[sinkingfeeling]

57. +1000

[BigmanPigman]

5. KARMA!!!!!

"Barket said Tartaglione and Epstein have been complaining about conditions inside the MCC including flooding, rodents and bad food."

[dawg day]

26. Awww, poor baby-

At least you have your memories of your $60 million mansion.

[southerncrone]

35. I hope he gets a repeated dose of the activities he purpertrated on all those young girls

for all those years.

[BigmanPigman]

41. Hell yes!

[Codeine]

66. Jesus, that's not how decent humans think.

Advocating for violent rape of the imprisoned is disgusting.

[uriel1972]

92. Agreed...

No matter how bad the person is, or what they did, we mustn't become the same as them. It's not just about their humanity, it's also about ours.

[yardwork]

54. I've read that conditions there are bad.

[BigmanPigman]

80. Poor thing.

He was complaining about the conditions...

"Epstein has been complaining about conditions inside the MCC including flooding, rodents and bad food".

[democratisphere]

6. We need testimony from Epstein regarding his dealings with drumpf.

Epstein's testimony could put drump away for good.

[marble falls]

8. Too bad. No bail. Put him in solitary.

[DURHAM D]

9. Probably a dozen or so people have put a hit out on him.

So, no surprise.

[Lonestarblue]

55. Trump is most likely one of them.

He has NY mob connections.

[Polybius]

10. And here we go!

Many want him dead, and I don't mean the other inmates...

[jb5150]

11. thoughts and prayers ...

.. scumbag!

[eggplant]

12. I vote to isolate him and set up a live webcam so we can all keep an eye on him.

[mercuryblues]

51. Hell, charge $10 a week

and donate the money to rape crisis centers

[edbermac]

13. Trump borrowing a page from Putin.

[cstanleytech]

14. Wonder if he staged it as an attempt to get the court to reconsider granting him bail or to try and

influence the judge and or DA to show mercy?

[Judi Lynn]

15. Maybe they should send in some more children he can defile, degrade, debase, corrupt, slime.

That might put the familiar leer back on his face.

[Pachamama]

16. Epstein found in "fetal position"?

Here is the craziest thing in the article:

"A fourth source said an assault has not been ruled out, and that another inmate was questioned. The inmate who investigators have talked to in Lower Manhattan facility has been identified as Nicholas Tartaglione, according to two sources. Tartaglione is a former police officer in Westchester County who was arrested in December 2016 and accused of killing four men in an alleged cocaine distribution conspiracy, then burying their bodies in his yard in Otisville in Orange County, according to court records."

Yikes....

[SCantiGOP]

20. Tartaglione

Sounds like a name straight out of The Godfather

[mountain grammy]

21. And they put him in a cell with Epstein?

Could make me believe in karma.

[Leghorn21]

27. I'd for sure stay on Nic's good side:

Yikes indeed

[Anon-C]

31. More on Nic recently, caught with a phone, cannot post the articles at present..

[alphafemale]

47. One of those neck wider than his brain pan guys. lol

Also looks like he's holding his dog by the windpipe.

[Dopers_Greed]

17. Some doesn't want him to finger...

...Herrpiece Fuhrer

[Buckeyeblue]

18. Suicide doesn't make sense with the appeal going on

Either someone wanted to make a name by taking him out or someone was paid to take him out. If he is willing to testify, they need to hide him somewhere.

[PSPS]

19. Actually, suicide is pretty common in child molestation cases.

[Liberty Belle]

23. So are attacks by other prisoners.

Child rapists are the lowest of the low, even in prison since many inmates are dads themselves.

[PSPS]

25. Um, he was in a locked cell.

"Investigators believe Epstein may have done it to himself"

[SoCalNative]

76. With a cellmate

so there's that

[Blackjackdavey]

81. It's more about

many of them having been molested themselves. Just saying. In fact, one interesting commonality among many incarcerated men is that they enjoyed relationships with adult women while in their teens which teen boys very often, maybe always, consider a badge of honor while totally oblivious to the fact they are in fact being molested.

[H2O Man]

22. What appeal?

Thanks

[cstanleytech]

24. For one he is appealing his bail denial plus I am sure there are a boatload of other appeals either

in the works or to be filed should he be convicted.

[H2O Man]

74. Okay.

Seems like the mere thought of those would keep him in a chipper mood. Hopefully a wood chipper.

[keithbvadu2]

75. Suicide or 'suicided'?

Suicide or 'suicided'?

[Quixote1818]

29. I hate to say it but they need to protect this piece of shit at all costs

If he goes down then it makes it a lot harder to take others down.

[PatrickforO]

30. I'm thinking he knows too much and will either disappear or be killed 'accidentally.'

I'm not getting the tinfoil hat out or anything, but I know how really powerful people roll, and Epstein knows too much about too many of them for his own health.

I hope not, though. As much of a dirtbag as Epstein is, I am fervently hoping he spills some real beans.

[Duppers]

39. Same here, my first thoughts.

I think I read somewhere that he has kind of an "insurance policy" whereby someone he trusted would mail things out if he were ever killed. Things that would expose a lot of people, ensuring that people would not try to murder him. I think there is a term for that but I can't recall what it is at the moment. "Kill-safe"? (Or is that a gamer term?)

[PatrickforO]

42. In movies it is just called 'insurance.' n/t

[oldsoftie]

50. That would be the smart thing for him to do

Let the chips fall where they may. Expose EVERYONE who used children.

[forgotmylogin]

67. "Dead Man's Switch/Dead Man's Letter"?

Although it's usually more of a mechanical/plot setup in books or movies - if a person doesn't log in to a web page or some kind of account on a regular basis, it's set to automatically email evidence to specific people who can do something with it. And it only offers protection if enemies are aware of it.

Likely this could be accomplished by a human assistant as well. "If anything happens to me, drop this in the mail."

It's common on true crime recreation shows that a victim's friend has an "If anything happens, tell the police to investigate this person" letter or conversation with them.

[Duppers]

85. "doesn't log in...on a regular basis"

Best way/insurance because it doesn't reply on anyone.

[LiberalArkie]

68. I may have been in his safe, and the feds have already raided that

[Duppers]

86. But perhaps not.

He may have foreseen that they could get into the safe.

[LiberalArkie]

87. Maybe on some non US property.. Maybe a bank safety deposit box.

[Jedi Guy]

82. Dead man's switch or dead man's hand.

Scarily enough, the concept exists in the real world in other ways. The Soviet Union supposedly had (and Russia supposedly has it today) a system called either "Perimeter" or "Dead Hand."

The basic idea was that if all of the leadership folks were dead, this automated system would launch all the nukes at preset targets. That way even if the US managed a successful decapitation strike, there'd still be a response and thus, mutually assured destruction.

Good times with nuclear weapons...

[Duppers]

84. Jeebus.F'n.Crist

Sick people.

[hunter]

32. Yet another Trump fail.

Not like that's a good thing. Or a bad thing.

Welcome to the shit storm.

[TeamPooka]

33. Still won't get him the work release program he wants. nt

[defacto7]

38. It's a warning for him to keep his mouth shut

or else.

[safeinOhio]

40. Doesn't like real jail.

But hard to choke ones self enough to leave marks.

[BigmanPigman]

43. If he tried to hang himself would that leaves marks?

[safeinOhio]

44. There would be a belt or torn sheet.

On the the other hand, the guy that might have done it doesn't look like he would be too weak to finish the job.
Looks like a staged job to me.

[BigmanPigman]

45. Good point.

Since the other guy is a former cop he probably has all kinds of useful experience and info to benefit himself and Epstein, especially if they have been bitching about the living conditions recently.

[alphafemale]

46. Oh....the DRAMA!

As a cad who had manipulated young teen girls, and kept them in exploitative situations, I'm fairly certain this is not the first time he's pretended to hurt himself.

[Grokenstein]

48. Just keep your eye on the sparrow

Don't do the crime if you can't do the time...well well well well well?

[Mike Nelson]

49. People are on the WRONG track here...

… a lot of powerful men want Epstein to shut up.

[Sancho]

53. Nothing on the morning news about Epstein...

[zanana1]

56. I detest what he did to those poor kids.

I detest him, but I don't like to see anyone, no matter how scummy, in that kind of pain. Just call me a bleeding heart.

[Chemisse]

61. +1

[Chemisse]

59. Please stop saying he deserves to be brutalized.

If indeed that is what happened.

All human beings deserve to be treated with some basic respect for their physical needs. Nobody should physically suffer while in prison and we should not applaud it when it happens.

How different is it to cheer on violence against this reprehensible person than it is to endorse violence against people crossing our borders, who right-wingers find reprehensible?

[Miles Archer]

63. We don't know what happened

Maybe it was a ploy to get a better cell / a better facility.

Maybe it was self-inflicted.

Maybe he was attacked.

I want to see him go through the judicial system, without any fixing or special favors, and receive justice. The justice system relies on the premise of "innocent until proven guilty," and there is a substantial amount of evidence...not limited to the materials found in his own home...that strongly suggests his innocence may be doubtful.

I want to see him receive whatever the justice system has determined to be the appropriate response for his "alleged" crimes.

That's about as diplomatic as I get. I don't endorse violence. I endorse justice, and in his case...if he is found guilty...I endorse the maximum sentence allowed by law. If that ends up being 45 years behind bars, as the media has suggested, I'm all for it.

[SummerSnow]

60. Fake. He just wants to stay in the infirmary.

[FailureToCommunicate]

62. I guess that monster was missing the good wifi and internet of his former

"house arrest" scene.

I know I get cranky when the internet is down...

Seriously, I hope Satin is banking up a hot spot in Hell for this guy (and any orange haired co-molesters).

[bucolic_frolic]

64. Wait. Is this self-deportation?

Should we ask Mitt?

[the_sly_pig]

71. Watch out for the polonium Jeff!

Not sayin, just sayin.....

[pecosbob]

72. Could well be the guy was just instructed to put a beating on him.

Seen it done all the time...in the FCIs around the country. But he's in the Metropolitan Correction Center which is specifically designed to hold pretrial prisoners. If he's in adminstrative segregation (where he should be for his protection and his importance in ongoing investigations) no can get access to him without being allowed by corrections officers at some level. Even adseg exercise areas are in isolated cages exposed to outside air and are observed by staff. He is not supposed to be alone with other prisoners...ever.

[Butterflylady]

77. Really don't care

Do you!


(sarcasm)

[C Moon]

78. Some many possibilities, but the one that comes to mind is Putin.

I'm surprised their haven't been more strange politically motivated deaths in the U.S. since 2016.
Maybe that comes after 2020.

[Blue_Tires]

83. Trying to pull a "Fred West"?

[Lefta Dissenter]

88. OK, I think it was self-inflicted,

In order to get himself moved outta there. BUT, a friend texted me earlier today, with her made-up theory that it might have been a case of autoerotic asphyxiation.

Just thought I’d throw that random theory out there for your speculation, since speculation is all we have at the moment.

[Chemisse]

90. And three theories of what happened just isn't enough - LOL!

Plus what is there about being in a jail cell that just makes one horny?

[Lefta Dissenter]

91. Every mystery

needs a little red herring!

[whathehell]

89. Meet Jeff Epstein's new roommate...
