Epstein Suicide Ruling Faces New Forensic Doubts

News summary

Michael Franzese, a former mobster who shared a prison cell with Jeffrey Epstein, has publicly stated that suicide by hanging would have been almost impossible in that cell due to the lack of suitable fixtures and constant surveillance. Franzese challenges the official account by citing his own experience with strict monitoring and expressing skepticism over reported camera malfunctions and lapses in guard checks, which he finds highly unusual. The Department of Justice and FBI have released recent memos, autopsy results, and security footage indicating no one entered Epstein's tier during the critical hours, reaffirming their conclusion of suicide. However, questions persist as some forensic experts remain unconvinced, and there are allegations that video footage of Epstein’s cell may have been 'modified.' Franzese maintains he has no personal interest in the case but finds the official explanation implausible given the cell’s architecture and prison protocols. The DOJ continues to stand by its investigation as thorough and conclusive.
