Jeffrey Epstein's death ruled a suicide, but many are skeptical The last time we talked about Jeffrey Epstein, he was denied bail and was sent to the Metropolitan Correctional Center in NYC, which is a federal correctional facility. He attempted suicide, was put on suicide watch, was released from suicide watch, a short period later, he’s dead, no one in the facility could tell exactly how it happened, US Attorney General William Barr is steaming, and then finally, the NYC Medical Examiner ruled his death a suicide with broken bones in his throat.
