> Not for people of his status

Name one similar case.

> Look at Maxwell, currently in a reportedly 5 star prison for the elite like her.

She's a woman, it's not the same. Besides, Maxwell is in FCI Tallahassee which is far from a 5 star prison. It's not even a FPC.

Epstein wasn't going to have a nice life at club fed, he would've either have spent the rest of his life in the SHU or been repeatedly assaulted and eventually murdered by other inmates in gen pop.

> The CCTV just happened to malfunction at the time of his death. His cell was cleared of anything that could be used to commit suicide, and the autopsy report showed inconsistencies with his reported method of suicide.

The reality is that none of these things are true.

The CCTV did not "just happen to malfunction at the time of his death", the CCTV footage was eventually recovered and showed nobody entering the cell.

He had been taken off suicide watch and had bed sheets.

His autopsy report did not actually show inconsistencies despite a fox talking head telling you so.

Source? I haven't heard or seen this.

Can you find a credible source describing the malfunction in the first place? It's tough to find anything beyond "some footage unusable".

The indictment states

>As confirmed by the video obtained from the MCC's internal video surveillance system, this was the last time anyone, including any correctional officer, walked up to, let alone entered, the only entrance to the tier in which Epstein was housed until approximately 6:30 a.m. on August 10.

I'd also note that the DOJ going after the jail guards is a pretty strong evidence against any conspiracy to murder Epstein.

> DOJ going after the jail guards

Yeah the DoJ really sunk their teeth in 100 hours of community service.

They asked for a credible source. Do you have one?
