Jeffrey Epstein has died by suicide, sources say
(CNN)
Jailed multimillionaire financier and accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein has died by suicide, according to two law enforcement sources
Epstein, 66, had been jailed since early July, when he pleaded not guilty to charges by New York federal prosecutors after an indictment accused him of sex trafficking dozens of underage girls, some as young as 14 years old.
News of Epstein's death comes a day after hundreds of pages of court documents were unsealed in New York federal court, alleging new details of sexual abuse claims against Epstein and several associates.

I thought Epstein was on suicide watch! How is it possible that he was able to kill himself then? Something smells fishy.

He was on suicide watch, but he convinced the prison psychiatrists that he was perfectly fine...so they took him off 'suicide watch'
Per Associated Press:
A little over two weeks ago, Epstein was found on the floor of his cell with bruises on his neck , according to a person familiar with the matter who spoke on condition of anonymity. At the time, it was not clear whether the injuries were self-inflicted or from an assault.
A person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press that Epstein had been taken off suicide watch. The person wasn't authorized to discuss the matter publicly and spoke to AP on condition of anonymity. It wasn't immediately clear when he was taken off suicide watch.

It was only a matter of time. Other prisoners were going to tear that guy apart. Dead man walking.
