I always assumed the guards were paid off but $5k sounds absurdly cheap although it's less suspicious than say a $25k deposit. I'm kind of surprised that they could cover up this up so easily as it doesn't appear to be a masterclass of an assassination. The camera miscues and the actual footage that was there supposedly edited and missing some content. Throw in sleeping guards and it's all just way too convenient.

Yeah maybe that's all it would take but I would have to think that several people in the prison were involved and clearly these guards aren't exactly the swiftest individuals. You would think that with some quality investigating that you could turn up something or have someone crack. That said, coming forward may be dangerous to the health of yourself and family.

If there is 1 conspiracy theory I'm in on it's this one, I'd bet everything on Trump having Epstein killed to cover up his child rape.

I think Trump is too cowardly for this. He may have been in on the discussion and support it, but I suspect the operation was directed by any number of other powerful people also in fear, but with more balls to do it. You know, Russians, Isrealis, Clintons.

Trump's not the only powerful rich folk that had a lot to lose if he ever spilled the beans.

First thing I thought too.

$5K? Dude...if you're gonna kill a guy at least get PAID! My God.

If you're going to murder a rich dude at least get 'retirement cash' for it.

If I was a rich guy trying to pay to kill someone, I would WANT to pay the hitman retirement money. I don’t want some jaded low-level criminal who can blow up my universe.

Who else did do it, then? They're really the only ones with unfettered access to the inmates and the premises. Not like Agent 47 waltzed in, stole a guard disguise, used an emetic on the Gatorade of the guard working the security camera room, killed the surveillance system for that area, then changed into an inmate disguise and strung Epstein up, then changed back into street clothes and escaped out the visitors entrance.

Also, a cash deposit? These people are stupid as hell.

The 5000 was just for turning off the cameras, someone else did the suiciding and got the big money
