Jeffrey Epstein has been found “nearly unconscious in a fetal position inside his New York City jail cell, according to the New York Post, citing sources close to the investigation.
The 66-year-old convicted pedophile is being held in the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in lower Manhattan pending trial. He was found semi-conscious with ‘marks on his neck,’ according to the report – which adds that investigators are still trying to figure out what happened.
As NBC New York also reports, “Two sources tell News 4 that Epstein may have tried to hang himself, while a third source cautioned that the injuries were not serious and questioned if Epstein might be using it as a way to get a transfer.”
A fourth source told the outlet that assault has not been ruled out – as investigators have questioned former Orange County police officer Nicholas Tartaglione in connection with the incident. Tartaglione was arrested in December 2016 on suspicion of killing four men in an alleged cocaine distribution conspiracy, before burying their bodies in his Otisville yard, according to court records.
Sources told News 4 investigators questioned Tartaglione, and the former cop claimed not to have seen anything and didn’t touch Epstein, sources said.
The attorney for Tartaglione denied all the claims that his client attacked the financier, saying he and Epstein get along and saw each other recently. –NBC New York
Epstein was arrested on July 6 for allegedly sex-trafficking minors, and was denied bail on July 18 by US District Judge Richard Berman after prosecutors said he poses an “extraordinary risk of flight” due to his “exorbitant wealth.” He has notified the court that he will appeal the decision.
Berman said prosecutors established a “preponderance” of evidence of Epstein being a flight risk, calling the fake Saudi passport “concerning,” and said the government also established community danger by “clear and convincing evidence” — which led to his decision to keep the financier behind bars.
Epstein’s lawyers had wanted him released on house arrest with electronic monitoring at his $77 million Manhattan mansion. They said he wouldn’t run and was willing to pledge a fortune of at least $559 million as collateral.
That said, Epstein would likely be in solitary confinement for 23 hours per day, lawyer Andrew Laufer, who has represented MCC inmates, told Reuters earlier this month.
“When you have someone that’s allegedly a sexual predator like Jeffrey Epstein, he’ll need to be in protective custody,” said Laufer.
“The sex offenders have a hard time,” said former BOP employee Jack Donson. “He’s definitely going to get ostracized.”

He is going to get ostracised? When they bury his head in the sand, his ass is going to be bent over and exposed. It could get ugly from there.,
Don’t like to advocate torture, but waterboarding this MF to talk would be fitting punishment.
Keep this evil prick alive, to cast a wider net.
I do advocate torture. (it is an established fact of life) Let’s get started.
…somebody wants epstein dead…the clintons?
The Clintons, the Mossad, the CIA, all his victims, most of America, and maybe Epstein himself. He may be the most marked man in the world. Regardless, the deep state will ensure he never testifies against anyone important.
Mossad.
If they wanted him dead, he’d already be dead.
What is that smell? Can’t you smell that smell?
The Clinton’s? He should be very worried.
Called it, last week.
I told my dad he would never make it out of jail alive, the powers that be that have a vested interest in not getting exposed will order a hit. This was a warning shot I think, or perhaps a bungled attempt. If they let this guy go to house arrest he’s done. He’ll have a “heart attack” or “fall down the stairs” or “overdose on sleeping pills”
I have a friend who’s a Sherriff and worked in lockup for a few years. Pedo’s tend to be the bottom of the pecking order even in correctional facilities, and normally are isolated. If he’s in general population it’s very likely that he could be suicided before this thing ever comes to trial. Could be that he’s being held in general population just for that reason.
He didn’t bang 11 year olds. Mostly 16+. He won’t get killed by random jailed thugs. He’s not even in prison yet. If he gets whacked, the “killed by other, honorable, pedo-hating inmates” will just be the official cover story.
Dead on.
Well, maybe, but media put out a few days ago that one of his “associates” said he lost all interest when they lost the pre-pubescent look and that he loved braces on girls. Not sure that is factual at this point, but pretty much all accounts I have read in the last week concur that he had no use for the 16+ sexually and used them to recruit the younger victims. I say bring back hot pokers and torture for this POS.
With his money he can hire about as many bodyguard inmates he wants.
Of course so can the Clintons.
Had a black guy that worked for me about thirty years ago, nice as can be but he killed his momma’s boyfriend with an axe but was freed on parole after about ten years. Asked him about this local rich guy ( a paving company) that went to prison for bid rigging, if he was having a hard time. This black guy said not at all, that he (the axe murderer) shined the rich guys’s shoes and would go get his laundry, and just hang around.
“Suicided” attempt is more likely. He’s got to realize he’s being offered up (by Moussad). No way they can risk him spilling the beans about them, about the Clintons/Bush’s/whoever else. Sick bastard is done for.
Epstein is going to die by Arkancide any day now.
This pedo paid off a guard to rough him up just enough and play sleepy so he gets isolation and eventually moved to minimum secured prison country club. Come on use your brains. He is a billionaire.unless he has a dead mans switch he will be arkancided by hildabeast asap.
They say a 600 millionaire. He made that by running a blackmail operation for the Mossad. If he dies, it’ll be their doing – although the CIA might help out.
I would send a case of snickers bars to the guy in prison that offs this pos, because even prisoners have daughters and kid sisters.
No. I want the Mossad angle to come out, although it probably won’t be proven – just widely known.
If he is still alive after that incident, it may be just a warning that his ‘insurance’ is worthless. He’d better keep them safe or he will get more than a hickey on his neck.
Mr. Epstein will soon find out how Mossad deals with threats to its operations. The poor kiddie diddler is toast.
Anyone who is a serious threat to Israel is offered a high paying job and/or a private island first, before they resort to knocking them off.
Given that, Epstein is due for a promotion and a few years in the Caribbean.
Epsteins little island looks like the same one El Chapo is renting in the Colorado Super Max. The amenities and activities are very similar.
Intentionally poor & sloppy attempt. I think this makes a quick plea deal that includes testimony more palatable. Only one side wants him alive for the trial.
No shit, Steve. I don’t know much about assassination but the killing of Ushikawa (1Q84) was neat, this is pretty sloppy indeed. Hey, maybe it was that MbS1 fun bunch.

If you’ve ever been to jail, you know the meat wagon makes regular appearances for any number of reasons.
can you translate that statement for those who have not been to jail?
The ambulances, the beatings, and the “medical events.”
But seriously folks, his suicide or homicide would be hoaxed.
Just bury the body at sea, then give Epstein his Mossad promotion for a job well done and a couple years on a far away private island.
Autopsy photos? Sorry that’s a state secret.
Does Osama bin Laden have a private island too? Is that where he was dropped off at?
I’m not sold on this being either an attempted suicide or murder. I’m not sold on anything about this whole deal and big shots sweating bullets over being implicated. For a comparable scandal that has been covered up and had most of the evidence “disappeared” think of the Roy Cohn documentary coming out this fall.
It’s on Trunews at youtube on the 23rd. Skip the first 25 minutes. That’s just as scandalous but most of the evidence and witnesses have disappeared. Both scandals are coming out at the same time regarding the Mossad and Deep state and current politicians.
I suspect a deliberate attempt to distract the masses away from something else. Who knows what the something else is. Could be something not on the radar yet for all I know. Which is not much.
John Q. Public is easily distracted, he has ADHD.
Plus the NFL preseason is about to start!
If the Pedogate reveals run as deep as suspected, and the handlers are who is expected, and they might be at risk of being outed or taken down, don’t be surprised if a few MAJOR false flags are launched, creating widespread death, destruction, and panic.
That type of evil stops at nothing to maintain power, control, and secrecy.
Money to burn, also.
History showed that as undeniable, to anyone paying close attention.
Even if the true perps are difficult to ID.
Ah, but that’s just conspiracy theory, right? (sarc)
JFK, and 9-11, to reference just 2 of many.
Goes back a long way, and they’re embedded everywhere and in every thing.
Extreme caution is advised.
Avoid large crowds.
Keep a low profile.
Anon..
The Trump-Cohn film coming out this fall shows even deeper palace intrigue going back to the 40’s.
I can’t help but suspect that “They” want to sow doubts about the government and democracy in voters on both sides.
They are right to sew doubts about democracy, which is what we have morphed into from a republic but I distrust their motives.
Expected…
Remember the declassified memos that Trump was going to release right after the midterm elections? Remember? Neither does anyone else it seems. The elites do not pay for their crimes in the same way the plebes do. If he’s there it’s to teach him a lesson, but he’ll be back on the Disney Princess cruise soon enough.
Nothing from nothing leaves nothing.
Fleabaggs, I listened to the TruNews from the 23rd. A lot of interesting stuff there (including in the first 25 minutes). I will need to listen to it a few more times to be able to digest it all.
pie R..
Right, there was quite a bit in there. McCarthy being gay etc. Hadn’t heard of Roy Cohn until Trump started getting a lot of press. I usually don’t watch Trunews because he takes so darn long to say anything but Mary gave me a heads up on this one.
Trump in make up is no biggie though. Back in the 70’s in N.Y. costume parties were the thing.
Bullshit! One of 2 things happened. He did it himself or the Clinton’s put a shot across his bow.
Ariel Castro offed himself rather quickly. Maybe Eppy decided that was a quick way out of prison, considering the accomodations.
in the mid 70 s a tampa pd narcotics detective was very aggressive in going after a connection between narcotics dealing & the mob–he was hit in broad daylight at his house–
the shooter was a low level mobster who was eventually executed–the guy who masterminded the hit 4 the mob was caught a few months later in new york city & while awaiting extradition back to fla he was suicided by overdose so i wonder how many other guys in the new york jail have been suicided–
“ostracized”… an interesting choice of words.
Which is better, HF, this or Rocky Horror’s Time Warp?
Paul Williams is on my short list.
*rimshot*
Is ‘shortist’ a slur? You, sir, are a shortist.
this could also go over on the mueller thread but i’ll put it here–
a “key” mueller witness has been charged w/child sex crimes–
my question–is it because he went after trump or because he couldn’t deliver the goods on trump to mueller?
this guy could be the arab epstein,lots of high level contacts–

since this is about teen sex,did you guys see that huma abedin let anthony weiner move back into the house now that he’s out of prison?
Why doesn’t he just get a note from his Mother?
He fed her pineal gland to Hillary.
