Time has put some distance between the ever-urgent "now" and the death of Jeffrey Epstein, from an "apparent" suicide in a jail cell. With the benefit of dispassion, and hindsight, let us look back at that.
The points that pop to mind are these:
1. This was a man with documented connections to two Presidents and a member of the British royal family;
2. Who had attempted suicide once before while in custody
3. Had been placed on suicide watch
4. But then strangely suicide watch was lifted
5. The ME performed the autopsy the day after his death, but hung onto the report for several days thereafter
6. ... only to disclose when she did release it that he had broken the bones in his neck in multiple places, something a good deal more common in murders than in actual suicides and
7. His death came just hours after the release of a lot of previously sealed court documents, as reporters on this beat were combing through them. Most like a hack Hollywood writer's idea for a plot twist, though, there is this:
8. The security cameras outside Epstein's cell were malfunctioning at the time of his death.

I am open to persuasion, but I think even Ockham himself would contend that there are as-yet invisible entities behind this event. Put the razor away, folks -- that's a common implement of suicide, too, after all.
It is possible, I suppose, that Epstein committed suicide and there is an elaborate conspiracy to make it appear that it was a murderous scheme and a conspiracy to make it look like a suicide.
