He had blackmail material on politicians, authors, billionaires, thought leaders, presidents and princes. If I was in his place, I’d be sitting pretty comfortably, thinking “there’s no way they can take me down with the justice system without taking themselves down too. I’m too big to fail.” literally the only risk would be being assassinated by those you have blackmail material on.
how is this not obvious?
It’s not obvious to people who like evidence. What you describe is called suspicion.
Suspicion is a reason to start look for evidence, not a reason to stop.
Your opinion is that secret assassins killed a man in prison. And you aren’t interested or even curious to back that up with anything.
I’m not going to just buy “secret prison assassins” without any evidence that they even exist. Especially when ‘jailbird kills himself’ is reasonable and likely.
I’m not making the argument to you that Epstein for sure killed himself, I’m making the argument to you that this specific claim you made:
He just got busted down to the justice system tier for mortal Americans and his life was over.
was completely and obviously incorrect. You can believe whatever you want about Epstein’s death, but if this man had survived, he would not have seen any kind of justice with the level of power and influence he had, and if you believe otherwise you’re either not paying attention or you’re delusional.
