Bombshell Report:

Substantial circumstantial evidence reveals someone arranged Jeffrey Epstein’s murder.

Among the injuries found: contusions on wrists, an abrasion on his left forearm, deep hemorrhaging in his left shoulder muscle, & a cut on his lip.
Jeffrey Epstein's autopsy: A closer look
60 Minutes has obtained the photographs from inside the convicted sex offender's cell and during his autopsy. They shed new light on —and possibly raise more questions about — his death.

"I have never seen three fractures like this in a suicidal hanging," Dr. Baden tells 60 Minutes. He added: "Going over a thousand jail hangings, suicides in the New York City state prisons over the past 40–50 years, no one had three fractures [to certain neckbones.]”

“Dr. Baden said small burst capillaries, known as petechiae, found on Epstein's face, mouth, and eyes are often an indication of strangulation. But it was injuries to Epstein's neck that make Dr. Baden call into question the official ruling of suicide.”

Netanyahu pulls a Big Con...

Israel's Netanyahu says he will seek immunity in graft cases

3 MIN READ
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Wednesday he would ask parliament to protect him from prosecution in the three graft cases he faces, a politically-risky move that could delay criminal proceedings against him for months.


Netanyahu was indicted in November on charges of bribery, fraud and breach of trust over allegations he granted state favors worth hundreds of millions of dollars to Israeli media barons in return for gifts and favorable coverage.

He denies any wrongdoing, saying he is the victim of a witch hunt by the media and left to oust a popular right-wing leader.

A trial cannot get under way once an immunity request is made, and Netanyahu announced the move in a speech on live television just four hours before a deadline for an application was to expire.

Netanyahu said in his address that the charges against him were politically motivated and he was entitled to parliament’s protection.
