Guess what. Both the cameras at his cell were malfunctioned. I own a subway and 2 weeks ago I had one of my cameras malfunction. I immediately got a notification and went to my store to check it out. So you’re telling me that a federal prison had no idea that the cameras were malfunctioning? I’m calling bs. There is no way that I have a better security system in place at my business then the federal government has in a prison. Also prisons officers monitoring the cameras 24/7. So not only were the two guards over worked and fell asleep and didnt check up on Epstein but the camera malfunction also wasnt noticed by the monitoring officers? Makes perfect sense
If you have both sides, left and/or right, wether they are conspiracy theorists or not, and they mutually agree that something is suspicious, you know for a FACT some shady shit went down
He was off suicide watch even though he made an attempt a couple of weeks ago, and he could snitch on a whole bunch of major players, seems a bit suspicious.
“You would think that in a situation like this, the president would be the voice of reason…” I don’t think anyone who has been living on Earth over the last 3 years expected Trump to ever be the voice of reason.
Love what he had to say. The real question is why wasn’t justice served originally? Conspiracy theories everywhere and you may have hit the nail on the head.
“I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but something weird happened here.” Trevor just said what almost every single American is thinking. Except for the ones with the tinfoil hats. They’re like, “Finally! We were right about something!!!!”
The ones currently in charge want to blame those who had the same position 2 decades ago. Wow!This is your guy and your Justice Department, Mr. President.
When I heard about his death I remember feeling guilty that I was so angry…. because my first thoughts were about what a f***ing coward he was. The way he’s been painted as some victim of conspiracies only makes me angrier. Thank you Trevor. Thank you. Not because you were for or against anything in particular, but because you put that sh*t into perspective- which it’s clear will be necessary over and over and over and over again.
Pockets go deep. What’s sickening is how long this likely went on and still does and how many women’s lives have been shattered. I Hope one day the girls get their justice in spectacular fashion. Girl with the dragon tattoo style
Both the cameras in Epstien’s prison malfunction, Epstien’s cellmate is transferred out, so he was all alone, the guards on duty fall asleep and failed to check on him, like dude if you wanted to kill the man at least do it properly without these convenient coincidences lying around for the whole world to see and easily figure out what really went down
After a month of hard research, I have come to the conclusion that I like Trevor Noah. Although I lean more to the right, the man is straight up hilarious
Imagine all the enemies/former “clients” Epstein has, then think of the wealth of those people and what they can do with that money.. I hate conspiracy theories so I won’t make any accusations, I just think there should be a significant investigation around this.
I’ve been an inmate in a turtle suit under suicide watch and I’ve been an inmate surveying other inmates under suicide watch. If anyone can keep a close eye on a suicidal inmate, it’s another inmate. Prisoners have more empathy for each other than guards.
I consider myself a very rational person. I’ve voted red and blue, I’m an auto mechanic, and I spend at least a couple hours a day researching the daily news stories from different sites. All this to say that suicide does not seem to be the simplest explanation in this circumstance. Too many things lined up for this to happen. This needs to be transparently investigated by several different parties to find out who is responsible for his death, and who his high level connects are that contributed to his sick crimes and looked the other way when he came under scrutiny.
Thank you TDS and Trevor Noah for covering this story in a real way asking questions. Shameful when comedians need to do actual journalist’s jobs instead of them.
I agree with both sides on the debate: maybe Epstein just did what any person with half a conscience would do in his situation, but also, it’s convenient to put a high profile criminal with powerful friends in an understaffed prison that uses inmates instead of guards for surveillance.
I like the way Trevor speaks. It’s very deliberate and he uses slower, low tones and regular speed tones to add drama in saying simple sentences. Makes you think that hes saying something profound .
Yeah, I really wanted him to give out all the info he had. Super bummed that there are so many potential leads we may never get, so many victims who won’t be saved or get justice.
Being a comedy lover and exposing my age a bit I have to add; Dear Mr. Kotter, Please excuse Jeffery Epstein from any further court appearances and facing any further justice as he’s not feeling to good today. Signed Epsteins Mother
As a rape victim that has gone to court, I can say that his victims are having mixed feelings. It’s scary as hell to see the cause of your pain face to face, even in court when you’re “getting justice” it puts you back in that victim/child like mentallity even though no matter how much time he gets it’s never long enough. You know you have to testify to save others while he’s put away but you also know that when he gets out he’s going to be back at it again.
Great Noah, I think you made an excellent point in the last bit. Shady things have definitely gone down, but this might actually be a case of justice catching up to a previously protected pedophile.
This man had a life time full of secrets. Trust me when I tell you there is foul play, someone thought he was going to talk….. but hey I’m sure a lot of the guys are in those video tapes and in them they will find the person who ordered that hit
It was just his time… Whether he did it himself or someone else did it. I’m sure many people are happy to see him go, not only those with secrets but victims as well.
This guy recorded everything happening in his house which could incriminate a lot of people who denied being involved with him despite evidence. They finished him
4:35 “Underfunded prisons” is literally a term I never EVER thought I’d hear come out of a show like this. I though we were all on the same page about the prison system being too damn huge. Well maybe if they’d stop locking up ever damn weed smoker and illegal mexican day worker they can get their hands on they’d have enough funds to watch people that really matter. Something like $182 billion should be enough.
He fell on his sword – he knew what he was supposed to do. There was no way he was ever going to stand trial or drop any information on the other pedos, too many high profile scum in this ring.
blaming corrections officers? For someone who should not under any circumstance be taken off suicide watch?I want to know who took him off SW and why. I want to know what happened to all the video throughout the prison and his cell. I think it’s possible that he faked his first suicide attempt just to get on suicide watch as his only hope of survival. He wanted eyes and cameras on him.
There was an allegation that his earlier injury was caused by an attack. It’s plausible that this was and that it wasn’t a suicide. Let’s not jump to conclusions that are not supported by evidence
When you keep giving useless tax breaks to people and corporations that don’t need them. This is what you get, unfunded prisons and other public works.
His high profile peers knew his appetites. Allowing him to rat on them for some sort of plea deal, well, no way that was going to become a thing. I was surprised he lasted as long as he did.
The closing of this segment was right on point, He(theperv) didn’t felt secured anymore and felt as he was gonna face the real shit… Idk Trevor all this smells funny to thousands of us.
My two cents: it was either a guard or an operative who flashed credentials, walked in,did it,walked out,with cameras “conviently” down. Max prison,suicide watch until right before,only a child or one of childlike intellect could really believe this was a legit suicide
Maybe just a reverse “Witness Protection Program” candidate. The man might be very much alive, with a new identity, maybe a brand new “facelift” cosmetics going on, and living and scheming as always somewhere in Hawai, Puerto Rico, or Argentina.
It’s very suspicious but I can also understand the under staffing as well. We had to pull some “iron mans” before where some COs worked 16h and maintained 2 to 3 pods. And they could house 70-100 inmates.
With the new items that have come to light, it leads more credence that this was not a suicide. In addition, an additional medical examiner stated this “most likely” was not suicide. RIP to the “additional” examiner on his suicide, next week.
Normally I scoff at conspiracy theories until REAL, verified proof that doesn’t depend on a personal bias to interpret it “correctly”; but that Smollet theory feels legit.
The night before he was found dead, I heard a news story stating that he WAS on suicide watch. Now we’re hearing the revision that he was taken off suicide watch weeks ago! So, the night before his death, there was no verification of the facts before reporting?
I think he just wanted to go out due to anxiety, depression and guilt. If anything, people should question more about people who for in jail s and prisons. It’s common if you study up on it. The mindset of a person can be unpredictable no matter if you’re rich or poor.
Underfunded and understaffed, sounds about right for most prisons in the U.S. And to be fair to speculation though, the federal prison system has had high profile prisoners just conveniently die before. Not following procedures and ending with a dead prisoner sounds pretty familiar to me too.I agree with the point though, due to his wealth, he was not even treated as an equal and shows another example of the U.S. justice system targeting the poor while helping the wealthy. His death due to a policy blunder just like many others sounds like justice to me.
They won’t even tell you exactly, how they found him ,at what time and how he killed himself. No details at all, I guess they haven’t come up with that yet.
His own allies in high places ended up ordering a hit on him. They all knew he was fucked, and they couldn’t risk it. We’re talking about politicians in important positions. VERY important positions.
I won’t lie, I believe there’s a conspiracy but Trevor broke it down in a good perspective as well. Maybe it was cause he was getting treated like a regular Joe for once. But than again, this guy’s a narcissist and I have a hard time believing he killed himself.
He was murdered percent. Also breaking into his house where is his rights. That’s his private property. Also security camera are running 24 hours in jails. It’s just a matter of time before someone in the security guard breaks silence.
Hey Chuck, isnt that the guy who was on suicide watch a week ago? -Yup.Should he really have a bunk bed and a linen bed sheet in his cell?-How d’ you mean?
I think he actually did commit suicide, but that the whole ordeal of removing him from suicide watch was a strategic move. Why murder a guy who already wants to take his own life? Just give him some time alone and blame it all on incompetence. That’s a whole lot better than keeping him alive and snitching…
For the first time, I’m actually mad that a pedophile killed himself. He really didn’t deserve to die at this moment. I was waiting for him to rat everyone else out and then get killed by a lethal ejection.
Im not a particular fan of pedophiles but what differentiates me from pedophiles is a sense of respect for human dignity, no matter who it is and what he or she did. I was a big fan of Trevor for some time but the way he makes fun of this guy and at his expense on the sole ground that he was a sick mind is a bit cheap and something you would expect the mob to cheer about. Unlisted 🙂
As someone who has been in jail before i can tell u that the length of time of his suicide watch is normal. Its actually kin weird that they were still checking on him every 30min since, for a lot of jails THAT is suicide watch (although usually their is a camera on you at all times but no one is just sitting there watching the camera 24/7 and they still do physical checks). Suicide watch is actually extremely awful and, personally, it would make me 100x more likely to want to kill myself. A lot inmates kinda see it as a punishment – like i really think that half the reason these inmates dont kill themselves later is bc they know that if they fail than its back to medical for suicide watch. You get put in what is basically a thick padded ‘poncho’ that goes down to ur knees (sometimes it has velcro to close up the sides but often not) and this is the only thing you get. No socks, no sheet, no blanket, no tooth brush, no soap, not even toilet paper. In fact, the suicide watch in my jail shuts the water off to the cell and you either have to buzz a CO or wait until a designated time to have ur toilet flushed. So forget Epstein for a minute. Imagine you are a drug addict who was just arrested, or u got a DUI. All thats going through your head is “will my family find out? will i lose my kids? will i lose my job? How did i fuck up my life this badly?”. You havent slept for the last 36hrs and your in intense withdrawal from drugs and/or alcohol. Everything feels hopeless. You get called down to medical to go through a routine check like every other newly booked inmate. They ask you if you feel suicidal and you say yes…or maybe you do try to hang yourself bc your brain is in near shock. Next you know you are being led into a completely empty cell that doesnt even have a mat/bedroll and being told to strip, squat and cough. Then they hand you some strange heavy horse blanket, take away your things and slam the door. You realize your supposed to wear the horse blanket so you do and then try to lay down to sleep bc wtf else is there. Only its cold. VERY cold. Colder than most ppl can image bc not only is there a vent blowing cold air in and your naked but your also withdrawaling which makes you already cold down to the bone. Its all down hill from here but you get the gist. You never know if someone is watching you shit but its very likely bc you have to press the buzzer to ask for some toilet paper to wipe your ass anyway and then to be allowed to flush the toilet….or, sometimes you have to sit in the cell with your shit floating 4ft from your head until a certain designated time when the water will get turned on and you can finally get rid of it. Now fuck Epstein he deserved it. But someone with actual depression who may of been using drugs to cope with their saddness? Or a first time offender who is scared and feels like their life is over? 24-72hrs is enough to break a person so until they actually change things then thank god suicide watch isnt more than 24-72hrs!
“…I wanted him to snitch on all his high-profile pedophile friends.” You. Isn’t his suicide “convenient?” And KNOWING he WAS at risk, they left him unsupervised.Check the guards overseas bank accounts – and the warden… Anybody suddenly got one?
We really are all part of this if we don’t get real ourselves and go through the legal actions as a group to get the truth of everything. No one to blame but ourselves. That means people who are responsible are unafraid to get real in the face of liars.
remember guys.. we will all forget this in a month and everyone he could have snitched on is now running around safely because this guy is dead and the public forgot. someone needs to make a official timer site that runs from the moment we all found out he was killed until we hear answers.
All good jokes have some real truth. What a genius way to make people aware of shit that’s really going on but still providing enough comic relief to make it seem more appropriate ( appropriate in terms of mainstream news)
SOMEONE with something they wanted to hide definitely ordered a hit on this guy, it’s too much of a coincidence that he just HAPPENED to commit suicide in a max security prison
Jeffrey better had some kind of “if something happoens to me in jail, release THIS” shenanigans in place or I’m going to be disapointed.Also this reminds me of the Kashoggi case. 🙁
ME TOO!! I WANTED HIM TO STAY ALIVE FOR THE VERY SAME REASONS! FOR THE VICTIMS TO GET PAID AND TO EXPOSE ALL HIS HIGH PROFILE ASSOCIATES AND ENROLLMENT!
He was too high of a profile case to just be left in a prison that poorly kept. America didn’t just drop the ball, the people in charge overlooked this whole situation, and probably for good reason.
I will never believe suicideThat man could never see court or make a dealWayyyyy to many very powerful men would BE e posed like the brittish prince, clinton,trumpand many others,they can’t let that come out
Anything can be done if the government want it to be done right folks? This is the BEST way to shut his mouth forever after All America is an inch closer to celebrating the Dictatorship
Its amazing how this shows redirect the attention or diminish the impact of the issue by the use of jokes and by the use of the orange man rutine. Any smart person knows who benefits from this man disappearance
How easy would it be to pay off one or two corrections guards they get paid pennies. The short staff probably represents a tight knit circle of crooked fellows.
The deaths of high profile people, and peodos in prison are “unseen and shady” for a reason. It wasnt an accident. Either someone did it and killed him, or they turned thier head when they noticed he was suicidal.
Being that there’s a protective custody program and he has so many high profile friends and the fact that he’s wealthy I don’t believe he’s dead I think it’s all a stunt and he was maybe even given a new identity. If he is dead he was killed
Trevor when you said you’re not a conspiracy theorist you said it the way I feel it was originally defined as meaning that one doesn’t have to be called a conspiracy theorist to theorize about a possible conspiracy! I bring this up because I’ve noticed there’s a common misconception in a lot of our society of some thinking that if one is talking about a possible conspiracy that makes that person a conspiracy theorist like that’s some kind of permanent title or name because somebody discussed one or even a small few possible conspiracy(s)! I feel that if somebody is always “sure” (or so they think they are) that big things that happen in life are always because of a conspiracy then I feel they can be titled as a conspiracy theorist! Otherwise they’re just a person theorizing the possibility of a conspiracy! I myself am more afraid and stay clear of people that are dead set on being close-minded and thinking there’s a 0% chance of the possibility of something being completely different than what is being told to us all!! Translation: apparently great minds do think alike!!
Usually you’re taking off a suicide watch after 3 days. If you tell the counselor you’re doing better and you don’t feel like harming yourself they’ll roll back restrictions and give you back your normal clothes
So the host agrees that this is a conspiracy, and when the president also agrees and supports the cause of the public’s rights to know. The host bashes him for it?
Underpaid and overworked guards may be more susceptible to bribes. Just a thought. I personally think it was suicide but that negligence and the system let him harm himself.
Finally a voice of reason! Suicide among prison inmates is common. Suicide among those who committed extra hyenous crimes that bring down shame on them are more likely to kill themselves when they realize that even if they magically got out, the label has now stuck forever. Add to that the understaffed prisons. Maybe stop incarcerating people for weed possession and focus on the criminally dangerous instead, and you’ll have capacity as needed?
A rope, a chair and a ceiling hook. Yah, these are standard prison issues for high class prisoners. Oh, and the security camera switched off. Did he have a pen and paper to write his will?
Trevor Noah: says something after he and his team spend hours looking up statistics and factsYoutube comment section: “Yup, that’s our system, I didn’t fact check it, but the news always says it and Trevor confirms it. I said it too, once.”
Please, please do not forget that both hallway cams were “malfunctioning,” “damaged,” or, “temporarily not working,” when this all went down. Makes no sense.
I just feel cheated that this guy didn’t serve a day of his full sentence but I don’t see a conspiracy theory here. I hope his victims find some relief from his estate given the lives he has ruined.
You didn’t do a good job covering it. Any woke person would look at this and would say:1.He is still alive i.e was transported out of the cell.2. He was m**d*red.
Its actually kind of sad that the narrative is being lost here. Noah was right on the mark. People are so fixated on the possibility of foul play here. But the reality is that there may have been no conspiracy at all. This very much should be an issue where America’s prison system needs to be seriously looked at – particularly the fact that its so understaffed that you have guards working excessive amounts of over time to compensate. NOBODY should be okay with that. Its not safe for anyone. Not safe for the guards. Not safe for the prisoners, not safe for the public at large.That’s not just a reality in the US prison system either. Its a reality in all facets of public safety. I’m in emergency dispatch. I’m set up to work 60 hours my coming work week. I’ve had days where I don’t even bother going home after a shift. I just sleep in the dorms trying to get much sleep as possible between 8 hour turn arounds for 16 hour shifts (and if a major incident occurs that could turn into 20+ hours). Cops are being overworked too. Same for fire fighters. Same for EMS. Just like prison guards, all these fields are understaffed and people are working overtime galore to compensate. We simply do not have enough people who are both qualified, able, and willing to pursue careers in these fields. On top of that there needs to be significant improvement in training and recruitment efforts by these agencies. All of that is going to need a large amount of government funding.That should be a concern for everyone. This story should be shining a light on the issue of the worker shortage in public safety careers such as correctional officers. Instead, its being turned into a conspiracy narrative. Granted, the conspiracy narrative is more interesting – Hell, maybe its even true. But the story of a understaffed prison facility should be the more important one here. People want to talk about government conspiracies? Here’s one. The government wants you to be talking about conspiracies and foul play when it comes to a high profile prison death like Epstein’s. Why? Because if Americans are talking about whether or not it was the Clintons or Trump that had Epstein killed, its that much less likely that they’re talking real concerns. Those being the lack of funding going to the effective training, staffing and infrastructure of correctional facilities in the US.
“They” told Trevor go out there and make jokes about a conspiracy then get serious and say how ridiculous the conspiracy that the Clintons killed him is.
I work for the company that builds suicide grilles (S-Vents). I’ve built them in the past but no longer do. Most companies won’t build them because of how much a pain in the ass they are in every aspect possible and how much money they generally lose producing them. We’ve revamped them and have did quite well though. You’d have to of stabbed or gagged yourself with something if you’re in a cell with one of these in the ceiling or wall.
Trevor didn’t mention the fact that the cameras malfunctioned during the ‘suicide’. Sounds like the script for a corny movie tbh[EDIT] Now they found out his neck is broken in a way that looks much more like strangulation than self-hanging. Who they tryna kid?
remember that scene from season 1 of true detective where the guy who knew everything about the pdophile ring kills himself in jail when he gets a call?
Ok so we were on summer vavation in America this year and walked past this very building … and it’s just now hitting me that someone just died a few metres from where i was standing a few weeks back … That’s honestly crazy … (Even tho it probably happens quite often and you just don’t know if it isn’t in the media️)
Bro did I hear that right. It’s something real subtle but they said that they rely on inmates, actual prisoners to help them watch after other prisoners. That is an insane statement!
He was switched. What about the judge that also passed away? There’s a trend of obfuscation by an overwhelming amount of wickedness going on in this country. Because it works. Both sides will agree on that in some form.
Odd conclusion at the end of this video. You paint a pretty good case for the conspiracy of murder, multiply it by the original conspiracy of his light Florida sentence, and come out with no conspiracy at all. Strange math at work here.
A must view for conspiracy theorists: the 1970s film “Short Eyes”. Prisoners have a caste system. Pedophiles, even suspected pedophiles, are the lowest of the low and are prime targets for threats, attacks, even rapes by other inmates. In “Short Eyes”, a suspected pedophile is driven to suicide before his trial, then posthumously is found to have been innocent. The reactions of everyone else, from prosecutors to the other prisoners: a collective shrug.
trevor is right everyone who leads an entire country should have two social media accounts one for official messages and one for nonsense and personal opinions, It can be difficult with trump everything he says is nonsenses.
Sometimes a man thinks that the secrets he holds gives him power. But he often forgets that within those same secrets lie his weakness. He was a dead man walking long long ago.
This shit doesnt only happen in tv shows and movies. Its real life where hollywood gets it from. He was killed so he wouldnt take anyone down with him and whoever did it is in some high power. Enough power to break the jaw that might bite back in the ass. ️
the feds often rent jail space from counties to house prisoners that aren’t yet convicted or just convicted. So saying in federal custody is misleading, because it was a county jail, not federal prison.
