What motivation did Epstein have to talk anyway?

[SHRED]

If he wanted to get out he'd never get out by talking.

If he wanted to stay alive he'd never stay alive by talking.

1. If he killed himself, he probably figured he was going to die by someone's hands..

...so he would rather off himself with as little pain as possible instead of being beaten to death by a paid-off prisoner.

2. Was Epstein such a weak man HE chose to end his life?....n/t

[SHRED]

3. Bullies usually are

[asiliveandbreathe]

4. I thought bullies double down...I won't name names...n/t

[SHRED]

5. Until they reach the end of the road

Then they crumble.

7. And then there is this,

Wealthy sex offender Jeffrey Epstein settles suit, averting victim testimony. Deal came Tuesday just ahead of jury selection in West Palm Beach

[kozar]

6. or? can I rephrase the question a bit?

Was Epstein,,and his "buddies" such weak men that they preyed on underage females? both questions bear same answer, yes.

8. I just posted this tidbit...

12. I don't think suicide means your weak...

[asiliveandbreathe]

9. None that I can think of.

I can't think of one thing Jeffrey Epstein had to look forward to. He was a private guy who controlled every single aspect of his life. I could never even imagine him submitting to a public trial. He hated scrutiny. Like the above poster said, he was at heart a controlling bully.

10. He wouldn't have talked...

But their would have been a public trial

No more

[SHRED]

11. What about the civil trials?

What about those who helped him ?

What about a trial for those who raped underage girls?

[lame54]

14. They better put a freeze on his estate...

So there can be civil trials

As for the rest

Let's hope they keep digging

15. There could be more here than the sex trafficking

Remember what Alexander Acosta said when asked why he didn't go harder on Epstein? He said something like, "I was told to lay off Epstein because Epstein is 'Intelligence'". I've never heard an explanation of what this exactly means, but it's hard to forget once you've heard it.

So there's an open question about who Jeffrey Epstein was above and beyond the child-abusing sex trafficker, and also how he got so much money when no currency traders ever heard of this guy.

EDIT: exact quote: “I Was Told Epstein 'Belonged to Intelligence' And to Leave It Alone.”

17. Remember that Barr's father

hired Epstein to teach at the Dalton school, even though Epstein lacked a degree. Wasn't Barr Senior involved in Intelligence?

18. Good to remember this!

It's screwy as hell. We need to know much more.
