I think that depends on how you look at it.

I mean, the "cover up" itself is barely a cover up. It's mostly relatively few people saying against the evidence that it was a suicide, plus obviously some high power people making sure the case has the right judge etc.

It's weirdly genius in a way. There's little need to cover up evidence or make stuff up. If the judge says so and the coroner says so, then legally speaking it is so regardless of the evidence.

If you can't find a legal reason to have someone else make a new judgment on the case, you'd have to dig up definite proof that the judge and/or the coroner made that decision based on something other than the legal facts. And I'm pretty sure no one involved was stupid enough to leave a paper trail.

On the other hand there seems to be a whole lot of anonymous leaks, so quite a few people seem to want the public to know something fishy was going on.

(Although to be fair you could chalk it up to it being such a famous case.)

Also, let's remember this happened when the POTUS was one of the men publicly connected to Epstein. Oh, and key members of the other party also want the thing to just go away as fast and quietly as possibly.

How do you fight that.
