the jeffrey epstein memorial poll and conspiracy-mongering thread

It’s understandable why Epstein would want to avoid his cell. Conditions inside MCC are legendarily bad—”miserable,” according to Patton—and Epstein had complained about rodents and bad food, according to multiple reports. At least the SHU meeting room would get him out of his cell. But the 1970s-era facility left a lot to be desired by both inmates and attorneys. Patton said the MCC isn’t as bad as more violent lockups, like Rikers Island. “But it’s one of the worst in different respects: Incredibly cramped—the only ‘outdoor’ recreation is on the rooftop under heavy fencing,” he said.

As for the SHU, where Epstein was kept, Patton said the conditions are even harsher. Inmates are housed in their cells 23 hours a day, and there’s only a tiny window letting in a sliver of natural light. “It’s a forbidding physical place to spend time. And it doesn’t certainly help in terms of mental health, or people improving their disposition, or getting them prepared to eventually reenter society and be more productive than when they went in,” he said.

Which is why any inmate would likely prefer to sit in a private room. Epstein, though, could afford to pay lawyers to sit there with him. As for the woman he saw sitting with Epstein, the attorney said, “I think she was there just to babysit him, and keep him out of his cell, and just keep him company for eight hours a day. Which is not supposed to be the way it works.”

The hyoid bone is protected in the front and sides by the mandible and in the back by the spine. It is mobile. Less than 0.002% of fractures involve the hyoid. Only 31 cases of traumatic hyoid fracture other than strangulation have been documented. Jeffrey Epstein aint number 32.

can we stop quoting viral twitter junkie/abuser eugene gu, though. dude has no credibility

I had no idea who he was

yeah, sorry for phrasing it like that. dude sucks!

back on track: that vikram chatwal story mentions he had a “G” tattooed on his arm for Gisele Bunchen, which seems creepy and weird. but, from a new GM story:

She went by “G” rather than her distinctive first name, neighbors said, had a vizsla dog and took walks to the waterfront, but kept largely to herself.

hmmm!

Best part of that profile is this bit:

Puff Daddy arrived, dressed as a king with a crown and a long, flowing red robe. “He’s a real cool, down-to-earth guy,” said the rapper of Mr. Chatwal.

Oh wait I misread that as Chatwal talking about Puff Daddy lol. Still, interesting glimpse of that world

The guest of honor, said Mr. Chatwal, was Prince Andrew, who told a “quite humorous” joke involving Pepto-Bismol and his brother Prince Charles’ girlfriend, Camilla Parker Bowles.

I’m quite sure the punchline here is Irritable Bowles Syndrome.

Lol it probably was

lol

Boat captain Kelly Quinn, owner of Salty Dog Day Sails, was cruising past Little St. James, just off the southeast coast of St. Thomas in the US Virgin Islands, when she captured photos and videos of the lowering.

“It was a real moment out there and it just felt so heavy,” Quinn told NBC News. “I didn’t feel there was a realness of the end of Jeffrey Epstein until I saw that. That was a lot more literal.”

Though it wasn’t clear who lowered the two flags on each end of the 70-acre property, Quinn said she believes it was one of Epstein’s employees.

“They’re doing this as a remembrance, but the irony is he’ll only be remembered for the deviance,” Quinn said of the convicted pedophile and accused child sex trafficker.

lol @ this boat tour person being a recurring character

pedobear flag also at half mast

bill clinton at half mast

"At first we didn't think much of the flag at half staff. By that point we had all grown accustomed to flags being lowered. Being ... draped. Over coffins, over bodies. We barely noticed the flag, but it was not long before we noticed the sharks. Oh, we saw them, alright. Circling the island, around and around. You could see their fins pokin' up over the surf, and you knew they were searchin', with those cold, black eyes. They were attracted, you see, to the blood. The scent of it. They went 'round and 'round, waitin' for the ... wait, did you say Quint or Quinn? Quinn? Oh, my bad."

Goddam it. Stepped on my own dumb joke.

from Counterpunch:

Subsequent reporting of the case will overlook decades of the elite-driven state craft that elevated corrupt and ruthless entities like Epstein and Trump, both ring-kissing acolytes in their youth of influential mob fixer/politcal power broker Roy Cohn – himself a serial sexual predator who similarly caught the fancy of fellow deviants Joe McCarthy and J. Edgar Hoover. Follow the money trail from Tel Aviv and you’ll discover an ancestral link between the corpse of Epstein and his ghostly godfathers waiting with his rewards in hell.

It’s all really just organized crime innit

Epstein’s covert activities have undiminished real world consequences for anyone on Israel’s international radar, especially those challenging the status quo policies in place that prioritize “The Jewish State’s” political and financial objectives over actual justice and global stability.

mm...hmm

damn I missed that, sorry. I was interested in the history aspect

now I feel stupid for posting that but I did not know abt the Cohn connection

Reverse crunches are important core work.

whats the melting point of hyoid

I’d have simply leaned forward firmly, not done a faux hanging

We need some diagrams, mock up photos of the cell,some arrows etc.

I keep thinking that. I've seen pics of similar units specifically designed to prevent this sort of thing

absolute units

lol

Screaming is often heard from the cells of those leaning forward forcibly.

I'm paywalled but there's a new NYT story "recounting Epstein's final days"

https://www.newyorker.com/culture/annals-of-appearances/the-gall-of-ghislaine-maxwell

Before her was a burger, perhaps served “animal style,” which, in In-N-Out parlance, means topped with all the fixings

LOL

The anonymous photographer told the Post that Maxwell was reading “The Book of Honor: The Secret Lives and Deaths of C.I.A. Operatives,” which, if true, seemed to suggest her awareness of people’s fascination, and also their conspiracy-theory-mongering. There appeared to be, in other words, a distinct possibility that Maxwell was fucking with us. An ultra-wealthy cohort had allegedly committed a series of heinous crimes, in plain sight, with a kind of entitled shrug, and a general sense that they were above the rules of society and would never be caught. In Maxwell’s impenitent gaze, we could see the broader audacity of the Epstein affair.

How is this woman not either in jail or in hiding overseas?

also she's at the in-n-out by universal studios so make another layer

I find the anecdote about her blowing up the tank very distressing

If you're not aware of it already his father had quite some life (and death) story.

... her father

Deleted my tweet about this sounding like Steven Pinker bc a journalist that as far as I can tell seems plausibly positioned to know says it’s not. But if it is still a Harvard professor.... ugh pic.twitter.com/nOyOnpCjDv

We haven't even covered the fact that the Ghislaine In-n-Out photo appears to have been a fake

Definitely weird. Her lawyer apparently took the picture and shopped in a few details to make it look like she was there at a certain time. I guess she's trying to stay ahead of everybody by obfuscating and muddying the waters about her whereabouts.

bottom of the Gulf of Mexico maybe

We found Jeffrey Epstein's Spotify account, where his tastes ranged from Louis C.K. to songs like 'Before You Accuse Me' and 'Hot for Teacher.' https://t.co/PyV3RPq5KV
