Jeffrey Epstein's brother reveals autopsy photo that casts doubt on cause of death
Mark Epstein maintains that the position and nature of the mark on the pedophile's neck do not match the descriptions provided in the official report.
Mark Epstein, Jeffrey Epstein’s brother, shared a never-before-seen autopsy photograph that raises questions about the sex offender’s cause of death.
This Friday, “The Megyn Kelly Show” published an interview with Mark Epstein, in which the pedophile’s brother once again shared his doubts about the claim that Jeffrey hanged himself in his cell four and a half years ago. However, on this occasion, he published a revealing photograph that could support his theory about the circumstances of his brother’s death.
The image shows a mark on Jeffrey’s neck, and Mark argues that the position and nature of the mark does not match the report that claims the pedophile hanged himself with a piece of cloth from “a sheet or shirt.”
“I have a hard time understanding how a sheet made that mark. It’s almost like garrote was used or some sort of rope wire”, Mark expressed in the program.
Jeffrey’s brother also highlighted that the autopsy shows that his brother was dead for at least two hours before he was found, and possibly up to six hours. “For that mark to be embedded in his left that way and dry like that, he had to be dead for at least two hours. It could have been six hours, but a minimum of two,” he said.
Mark said it also disagrees with the Justice Department’s version that Jeffrey was sitting with his legs extended and hanging from the top bunk bed when he was found. According to him, the ligature mark in the image is more centered on the neck and goes straight back rather than rising significantly in the front of the neck, as would be expected in a hanging.
The pedophile’s brother has insisted that evidence about his brother’s death should be made public. “I only want to look at facts, but when we consider the facts available, we get more questions. There appears to have been no investigation once it was ruled a suicide; they saw no reason to dig deeper,” expressed Mark in another interview, in which he indicated that they could be trying to cover up what happened.
Experts doubt it was suicide
It’s not just Mark who doubts the veracity of the report of the pedophile’s death. During Epstein’s autopsy, two forensic doctors were present who also disagreed with the official version.
Dr. Kristin Roman and Dr. Michael Baden classified Jeffrey’s death as “pending” for an investigation, but it was reportedly changed to suicide a week later by Chief Coroner Barbara Samson, who cited “additional evidence” without providing specific details.
Baden reported two unusual breaks in the thyroid cartilage and one in the hyoid bone, more common in homicidal strangulations than in suicidal hangings. “I’ve not seen in 50 years where that occurred in a suicidal hanging case,” commented the expert.
