A changed and aged Epstein during incarceration
Jeffry Epstein is dead by his own hand and the conspiracy theories abound. Of course they should be thoroughly investigated, even though they are all more fiction than fact. The system or someone in it is responsible for leaving a suicidal man unsupervised and should step forward and own it.
Will anyone truly mourn Epstein's death??

The more we learn, the more Jeffrey Epstein resembles an evil comic book character for the developmentally arrested, pseudo intellectual — the charming-but-lurid mastermind with a plot to take over the world by impregnating scores of women on a remote desert estate.
The New York Times reported that the financier/convicted sex offender/philanthropist — and accused sex trafficker — was also a “transhumanist” who had big plans for humankind. Epstein apparently told one scientist that he hoped to seed the human race with his own DNA by impregnating 20 women at a time at his New Mexico ranch, named “Zorro.”
Transhumanism is the theory that the human population can be enhanced through technologies such as artificial intelligence and genetic engineering. Or eugenics by any other name. Epstein seems to have believed that he was that rare breed that ought to be replicated.
The carriers of Epstein’s apparently rarefied spermatozoa wouldn’t be the younger, underage sexual partners he allegedly preferred. Instead, according to the Times’s reporting, his maternal incubators would be adult women whose intellectual qualifications would have been established through academic achievement.
Trump parties at Epstein's Manhattan manse
For dinners he hosted at his Manhattan manse, Epstein often invited scientists as well as a sampling of attractive, accomplished women. Some of the scientists theorized that the women were being vetted as potential candidates for Epstein’s very special black book, according to the Times.
The male invitees weren’t your run-of-the-mill scientists but some of the most renowned, innovative minds in research and academia. Among them was Steven Pinker , the Harvard cognitive psychologist and popular science author, who seems to have seen through Epstein, calling him an “intellectual impostor.” Pinker told the Times that Epstein would abruptly shift topics and make juvenile remarks. To the layman’s eye, such behavior suggests a purposeful deflection when the topic at hand is reaching a point beyond the speaker’s comfort range or intellectual capacity.
Others on Epstein’s guest lists apparently were seduced by his charm and intellect, as well as his wealth, which he reportedly dangled as bait for funding-starved researchers. He was generous, often donating to a variety of interests and causes, including the Clinton Foundation. But he wasn’t convinced that helping the starving masses was productive in the right sense, arguing that providing food and health care to the poor would only heighten the risk of overpopulation.
Pinker, who said he was present when Epstein floated this idea at a gathering at Harvard, which was dissented, arguing that the evidence points to the contrary. Gods don’t like to be contradicted, and Pinker was thereafter told he’d been “voted off the island” and banished from future gatherings.
Speaking of which, Epstein’s private island in the Caribbean — which he dubbed “Little St. Jeff’s” — is of renewed interest thanks to an NBC News report. Apparently, a blue-and-white-striped, block-shaped building on it bears no resemblance to the octagonally shaped design that had been approved to be a music hall, according to permit records.
What the structure does resemble, however, is a pharaoh’s headdress. Might this have been intended as a mausoleum for Epstein’s remains? That is, other than his head and penis, which he reportedly wished to have frozen. Also a fan of cryogenics, believing that frozen human parts and bodies could be resurrected in the future, Epstein was no ordinary bloke. Indeed, he is a perversely tragic figure.
Burdened with lewd and improbable fantasies and the means to explore them, it seems that Epstein became lost in his own fable. Wandering the skies in his private jet, enamored of his own mind and image, he forgot that he was merely mortal and may have flown too close to the sun. Confined to a jail cell (with further punishment to come) — and removed from his luxurious kingdom, his freedom and the company of luminaries who swelled his ego with admiration — his suffering must have been unbearable, although richly deserved. The logical explanation for his extreme reaction to his situation is that he could no longer tolerate what his life had sunk to and did not have the courage to face an even worse future.
