Jeffrey Epstein's apparent suicide in federal custody is provoking scepticism among online conspiracy theorists and even some officials
In this file photo taken on July 8, 2019, a protest group called"Hot Mess" hold up photos of Jeffrey Epstein in front of the Federal courthouse on July 8, 2019 in New York City.
Epstein had been placed on suicide watch following an incident just over two weeks ago in which he was discovered with bruises on his neck. But he was taken off of suicide watch at the end of July, a person familiar with the matter told The Associated Press Saturday. "Who was watching? What does camera show?... Follow the motives," tweeted former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, now an attorney for President Donald Trump.
Epstein, 66, had been denied bail and faced up to 45 years behind bars on federal sex trafficking and conspiracy charges unsealed last month. He had pleaded not guilty and was awaiting trial on accusations of sexually abusing dozens of underage girls.
