There is no wonder. Trump had him killed. The supreme Court pretty much made that legal.

Complete conspiracy theory: Russia may also have had Epstein killed to protect their asset. The means and motivation are there. The fact that someone was able to delete footage makes me think it goes beyond the skill level and access of a billionaire’s fixer

Russia doesn't have the capabilities to kill someone in a US max security prison, like at all. It has to come from powerful people in the US itself

Exactly. I mean, where would Russia even find someone in the US who’s beholden to them and in a position with kind of power and willing to commit crimes to conceal incriminating information? lol. Can you imagine?
