This is a late breaking story from Washington Post reporting that
autopsy results found multiple broken bones in Jeffrey Epstein's neck.
An autopsy found that financier Jeffrey Epstein sustained multiple breaks in his neck bones, according to two people familiar with the findings, deepening the mystery about the circumstances around his death. Among the bones broken in Epstein’s neck was the hyoid bone, which in men is near the Adam’s apple.
Further information from the story:
Jonathan L. Arden, president of the National Association of Medical Examiners, said a hyoid can be broken in many circumstances, but is more commonly associated with homicidal strangulation than suicidal hanging.
And this is relevent also.
Hyoid fractures have previously sparked controversy in jailhouse and other contentious deaths. In 2008, Ronnie L. White, a teenager accused of killing a police officer, died of an apparent suicide in a suburban Washington jail cell. But two days later, the cause of death was changed to homicide when a Maryland state medical examiner discovered the teen had a broken hyoid.

Citing “people familiar with the autopsy,” the Post wrote that Ms. Sampson’s office is seeking information that would support or rebut a homicide — for example, video evidence of the jail hallways and a toxicology screening to determine whether he might’ve been drugged.

I'll try and leave this OP as neutral as possible to further along
discussions, but will add this is certainly not what I was expecting
to find out as I figured there would be a cover up.
It just really looks like he was murdered.

He could have spent his life doing good for the world. But he spent it being a sexual deviant praying on young women and girls. Using them as play things. Who cares if he was murdered. No one is going to miss him.

I'm not going to miss him (I didn't even know he existed before he appeared on the news), but I do care about the cause of death.
If it was a suicide then, although difficult to find, the reasons may be important: fear of going to jail, fear of what powerful "friends" could do to him if he talked too much, etc.
If it was a murder then the reasons are also important. The motive could have been revenge, but it could also be to stop him from talking too much, and in that case we should know who was afraid of what he could say, as that means that person(s) is guilty of something they do not want to be known and are bad enough to justify a murder and all the risks associated with it.

No one is going to miss him. He never thought his ego and sins would ever catch up with him. Well there a special place in hell for folks like him. If there is a hell. If not. People alive will just remember him not as a rich asshole, but a rich asshole who was a sexual deviant and probably a evil douche bag.

Point being that his death has let a lot of other well known guilty 'celebrity' sexual
deviants who would have been sweating buckets off the hook because now there
will be a lack of evidence and they will now get off scott free.
All those abused young girls women and young boy 'victims' will not now get the
justice they as victims deserve.

Hyoid bone... wouldnt that only break if you hung from a high place where you actually fell into a fully stretched hang... from fx a tall chair, a tree and so on.
As opposed to hanging yourself from a bunkbed which I would imagine you would ease yourself into until you hung in a way where it was impossible to recover your balance.
Would he break that bone if he paniced and started to struggle against the hang or do you need more direct force?

Are we supposed to be shocked by this information?
This State Department status would have enabled Epstein to bypass border security checkpoints and elude law enforcement and it suggests that Epstein’s illegal child trafficking may have been supported by or even funded by the United States government.

I have a question??? these suicidal hangings where the bones are broken are these full on throw the rope over the beam and kick the chair out from under themselves or are they the type like this one with bed sheet tied to the bunk bed much closer to the ground and all
That's a good question.
I found this scientific article regarding hyoid bone or thyroid cartilage fracture in hangings in Thailand.
In that study, only 10% of hangings resulted in a broken hyoid. The ages of the men used in that study ranged from 20 to 78, with a mean age of 42.40. The mean age for no broken hyoid bone or thyroid cartilage was 35.93, the mean age for the broke hyoid or thyroid cartilage was 61.80.
Curiously, the five cases with fractures of the hyoid bone and/or thyroid cartilage were all incomplete hangings.
PS: an incomplete hanging is a hanging in which the body is not fully suspended by the neck, with some part touching the ground or other surface.
Justice is a concept and idea. My justice might look like someone else's revenge.

Hi Ya'll, I've read the thread over the past many days and just found this today. Hope it's news and is of interest.
According to Forbiddenknowledgetv, Epstein’s Bronco turboprop plane and a helicopter shared tail numbers with craft owned by the US State Department.
Here's the sad, but some how unavoidable truth:
