Jeffrey Epstein found dead in Manhattan jail: Outrage and intrigue soar over suicide as US lawmakers push for answers

Firstpost  

Outrage and intrigue over the apparent suicide in prison of well-connected accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein soared as US lawmakers pushed for answers, including whether ‘criminal acts’ played a role in his death. New York: Outrage and intrigue over the apparent suicide in prison of well-connected accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein soared on Sunday as US lawmakers pushed for answers, including whether “criminal acts” played a role in his death. Epstein’s death in a high-security New York jail, an apparent suicide that came just weeks after an earlier possible attempt on his own life, meant he should have been under close watch and has fueled anger and a conspiracy theory frenzy. “It is a shame that he committed suicide,” she told CBS’s “Face the Nation.” New York’s chief medical examiner Barbara Sampson said on Sunday that an autopsy had been completed, but the determination of cause of death was “pending further information at this time.” The procedure was observed by an outside pathologist at the request of Epstein’s representatives, she added.
