Conspiracies Epstein Dies in Custody - Alleged Suicide, Some Speculate it was a Hit Job

and what about all the things that you don't see?

If I don't see it I can't factor into my view of the world, that's just the reality of not being God. We only have some of the picture to work with.

OK so in spite of my personal embargo against YouTube videos, I started watching the first of the three links you put up. I got a little while into it and then realized there didn't appear to be any actual whistleblowing in it.

It all seemed to be some guy, narrating about what some other guy supposedly said and did. With seemingly no sources. How is that whistle blowing? To me whistle blowing is when someone involved in a cover up or conspiracy comes forward. Not when some guy totally uninvolved reports on what some other guy almost entirely uninvolved supposedly said or did.

If any of the other links involve someone who actually participated in the conspiracy in a knowing way, let me know and I'll watch that one. Provided it's their words and not someone else's words about their words.

I find it weird that you assume that every single covert conspiratorial plot will definitely be exposed. I can't follow this logic at all. It is very presumptuous.

Admitidly I could have done a better job explaining my point, so allow me to try again.

My point isn't that every conspiracy is likely to be revealed or a belief in some sort of confirmation bias where every conspiracy we know about failed... Because otherwise how would we know about it...

My point is that if people in power can't even keep fairly small and easy conspiracies under wraps, it doesn't seem very believable that they're successfully keeping huge conspiracies under wraps.

I'm sure there are some conspiracies that were never revealed. But we can only go on the evidence we have from history. And what we have suggests that people aren't very good at keeping conspiracies quiet. And I suspect it's only gotten harder now that humanity is more connected than ever.

Conspiracy theorists would probably claim that most of the huge conspiracies HAVE been revealed. They've discovered them. And it's just that the rest of the public are sheep and can't see it.

I don't buy that because from time to time conspiracies are revealed and the public as a whole DOES recognize them as what they are. Including some recent ones, especially relating to government surveillance and military activities.

And, while it's impossible to be truly objective as subjective creatures that we are, using my best attempt at objective logic I can see the clear flaws in reasoning used by most conspiracy theorists. Which suggests to me that they're the ones not seeing things clearly, not everyone else.

I've asked you multiple times what's the difference between "small" and "huge" and you are refusing to define it. So I can't really take what you say seriously. And as I've explained, it doesn't take a large number of people to enact what you would perceive as a large conspiracy due to compartmentalization. If you are able to understand this, then are you willing to admit the people at the very top would be able to conduct these operations? Or do you assume because they are at such high positions, then they just wouldn't ever do things like this?

And what we have suggests that people aren't very good at keeping conspiracies quiet.
This is where you fail at logic. You don't know anything about the ones that remained secret. So there's no way you can even guess as to what % of these grand conspiracies are successfully kept under wraps.
You also are terrible at recognizing the evidence that exposes actual conspiracies, so you would be the last person someone should ask regarding the prevalence of covert government plots (which we know factually do exist).

Conspiracy theorists would probably claim that most of the huge conspiracies HAVE been revealed. They've discovered them. And it's just that the rest of the public are sheep and can't see it.
Again I object to you using the group term "conspiracy theorists" to refer to anyone that distrusts official narratives, but the serious alternative researchers admit that much of what goes on is hidden. But what we can see are the effects and results and that can give us further clues.

What annoys me is how quickly people forget what was said earlier, once a conspiracy is proven true and accepted by the mainstream as evident. Before Snowden it was considered a crazy conspiracy theory that the government was even monitoring all communications. Time and time again it's the alternative researchers that prove they're ahead of the curve, and the anti-conspiracy theory doubter/skeptics who are proven wrong or ignorant. What you need to get better at is discerning legitimate alternative researchers with crackpot conspiracy theorists. You don't know how to tell the difference and it's clouding your judgment while reinforcing your bias.
 
You keep talking about proven conspiracies.

Why do you think it is that there's almost universal acceptence of conspiracies like the one Snowden revealed. But not of conspiracies like 9/11?

According to you there's piles of evidence for the 9/11 conspiracy, so why are some conspiracies so much more widely accepted than others?

That could be a long discussion. Some people have surmised that the NSA leak may have been purposeful. Either an inter-departmental attack by the CIA to expose the NSA (who can spy on the CIA), or it may be getting the populace used to the idea of being surveilled. Because after that, it helped them control people's actions. The average person became more hesitant to speak their minds and would self-censor now that they know for a fact they were being monitored. And look what resulted in that conspiracy leaking - nothing, really The NSA continues their mass surveillance and the people did not rise up in protest and demand these agencies respect their right to privacy.

Whenever any event happens you must ask cui bono - who benefits?The truth about 9/11 leaking to the public would be disastrous for the US/M-IC establishment and possibly the intelligence agencies of some other states. Virtually every war from Afghanistan onwards had as its basis islamic terrorism, where 9/11 was considered the shocking foundation.

The way the media reports on it matters a lot too. There was no mainstream media critically analyzing 9/11 or reporting on further developments that show the official story to be the farce that it is. When you get a sense of who was involved then you begin to understand why.
 
Jeffrey Epstein and Harvey Weinstein were guests at Princess Beatrice’s 18th birthday ball

SEX beast Jeffrey Epstein and rape accused movie mogul Harvey Weinstein were guests at Princess Beatrice’s 18th birthday ball.
Billionaire Epstein, 66, a former pal of Prince Andrew, the birthday girl’s dad, flew into the UK the day before the lavish Victorian-themed bash at Windsor Castle.
The disgraced tycoon was accompanied to the £400,000 celebration by British ex-lover Ghislaine Maxwell.
Epstein was arrested on child prostitution charges just days later.

Weinstein, 67, went with Georgina Chapman, the Brit designer pal of Beatrice’s mum Sarah Ferguson who created the party girl’s £10,000 blue taffeta gown.
They wed but she divorced him after dozens of women accused him of sexual abuse in the #MeToo scandal. He faces trial next year.
The mask ball’s theme was 1888 to mark 100 years before Beatrice’s birth and guests wore Victorian costume.
It was held on July 15, 2006 and continued the Queen’s tradition of giving her grandchildren a coming of age birthday party. She and Prince Philip did not attend.
 
Brown University official suspended in connection to Epstein MIT gift probe


A Brown University fundraising director has been placed on administrative leave as the school investigates his involvement with alleged sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein while working at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT).

University spokesman Brian Clark confirmed that Peter Cohen, the director of development for computer sciences and data at Brown, is on leave as the school examines the claims laid out in a New Yorker article published last week about Epstein's ties to MIT.

The administrative action against Cohen was first reported by the Providence Journal.

Cohen helped work to conceal donations from Epstein, who had already pleaded guilty to state charges of prostitution and procurement of minors for prostitution, while he was director of development for the MIT Media Lab, according to emails cited by The New Yorker.
 
Nice @JGrimez, I hadnt heard that latest bit of news ?

To me its amazing how people who do much less evil, even just us if we get caught in the wrong situations with the wrong stuff, could go all over the news, but these dudes in power they are always cloked in shadows~~One of the first people to look up the case was Private Investigator Ed Opperman ( podcast from 2016.) Takes a god damn P.I to broadcast this stuff.
 
wow wow

Top Florida Cop: Jeffrey Epstein Was Tipped Off, Found Every Loophole as Investigators Closed In

Former Palm Beach police chief Michael Reiter told NBC News “Dateline” that Jeffrey Epstein was likely tipped off by an insider every time his investigation got close to catching the perverted financier. Reiter described several scenarios in which investigators working covertly would go to Epstein’s home with search warrants only to find they had been cleaned of all sexual toys, devices or other materials described by his many victims. Reiter said that in one instance, the home surveillance cameras had been ripped from the walls, leaving the wires hanging. Reiter, who spent much of his career trying to convince state and federal prosecutors in Florida to charge Epstein, says he hopes to now persuade lawmakers to make sure the next Jeffrey Epstein can’t beat the system. “Epstein found every loophole,” Reiter told “Dateline” in an investigative story that aired Friday night. “I want some system in the future that this can’t happen again.”




Jeffrey Epstein was allowed 90 prison visits with a woman Palm Beach Police had identified as an underage rape victim - even after registering as sex offender

Jeffrey Epstein was approved for visits with one of his underage rape victims while serving time for soliciting minors in Palm Beach.

Documents obtained by DailyMail.com show that the Palm Beach County's Sheriff's Office recorded approximately 90 visits between Epstein and Nadia Marcinkova in their official prison log.

Marcinkova, whose name is recorded as Nadia Marcorkona on the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office visitation authorization log, was born on February 21, 1985 according to officials, despite having been born in 1986 according to almost all reports.

This means that Marcinkova would have been 16 or at most 17 when she was forced to have sex with other underage girls and Epstein himself, all of which was described in some detail by one victim in her interview with the Palm Beach Police Department.

That interview was later included in the Palm Beach Police report on Epstein, meaning that officials would have been aware that Epstein had raped and sexually assaulted Marcinkova much like his countless other victims.

They were also aware that Epstein was listed as a sex offender, having been entered into the system when he started his prison term around July 2008, according to official documents, even if he himself had not personally registered until after his release.
 
What exactly are you suggesting with that last report? I mean I certainly find it eye catching. But by my math she would have been 21-22 in 2008 when she visited epstein.

Not knowing any other circumstances beyond what's in the article, it's hard to know what to think, but if a victim wants to see their victimizer, as an adult, and both parties consent. Where exactly is the problem?

It's weird certainly, but I can't really see it being justified for a third party to disallow it on the basis of knowing better than the two adult parties.

If I as an adult wanted to see my rapist in prison, assuming that's what this is and there isn't missing context, I'd be pretty pissed if a third party wouldn't let me on the basis that they've decided on my behalf that it wouldn't be a good idea.

It's none of my business. I can't help but admit I'm curious what the circumstances were though.

I mean we don't even know what "visit" really means here.
 
^well, it's legal in the sense that she was over 18 by the time he was incarcerated as a sex offender (for abusing her).

But he arguably manipulated her while she was underage to engage in sex illegally.

Sooo.....not sure what the rules are regarding this, but it seems pretty sketchy to me.

Funny how you're giving the benefit of the doubt to the pedophile rapist and not the well-being of his victim.
 
No, I'm giving benefit of the doubt to the victim by assuming she's a grown woman who understands what she's doing.

I don't much care for third parties getting in the way because they think they know better about a situation than the people it affects. Given your political leanings I would think you'd appreciate that.
 
Yeah I get that but I mean he's a global child sex trafficker, with extremely powerful connections.
You'd think that his victims would be kept away from him, but when you're that powerful most of us know that the rules don't apply.
 
You're just conjecturing though. We don't really know the circumstances of these visits.

You say "you'd think his victims would be kept away from him". By whom? Who has the right to say his now adult victims can't visit him? I don't believe anyone really does. If it were a still underage victim at the time then of course it can't be allowed. But an adult is different.

It's one thing to make accusations of corruption where the rules have been ignored. And there's certainly plenty of potential for that where epstein's concerned. But I'm talking about this specific example, and as you said, it's probably not illegal. Therefore this isn't an example of the rules not applying to him.

While these visits are certainly interesting. With nothing else to go on I can't see any justification in assuming something improper.

Again, we know nothing about the context here. You're just making assumptions. It COULD be that her visits weren't entirely of her own rational and healthy free will. Or it could be they were. And with no evidence to the contrary, I'm going to assume a grown adult knows what they're doing.

If you wanna baby grown adults because you believe you know what's best for them. You know what you are?

A leftist. :)
 
I don't know, some would argue that she would be unable to exercise her rational and healthy free will due to abuse suffered while she was younger and in a more vulnerable/impressionable state.

It just seems weird to allow her to visit him in prison.

Some would argue a lot of things. But I don't accept that argument. Sure, it might be true in some cases, but that doesn't mean it should be presumed true in every case.

With no reason to think it's true in this case, I believe we should assume she's an adult capable of making rational, adult choices like these.

I don't believe in protecting people from themselves. I think it has a tendency to always wind up going too far. I'd be surprised if you did either.

It's a little weird I agree. But I don't find it that implausible that she might want to face her abuser.

A big question here is what exactly 'visit' means here. If it just means talking to him in an area with other people in controlled circumstances, then I see no reason to interfere.

If it meant them being alone together, then yes I'd be willing to stop that. Not just for her safety, but for his as well.
 
Well she visited him 90 times which leads me to believe she didn't go there to face her abuser and they didn't meet to talk politics.
