In your opinion, which of the following events most likely happened?

Epstein committed suicide on his own (25%) – "He was facing a long trial and serious prison time, combined with losing everything he had - he wasn't strong enough to cut it. I do believe it's possible that people could have been paid to look the other way in some aspects, so he could carry out the suicide."

• "Occam's Razor: the simplest explanation is most often the correct one. Epstein was a coward who was caught and preferred death to a public trial."

Epstein was coerced into committing suicide (28%) – "While there is rampant miconduct in the Bureau of Prisons, I doubt so many coincidences on such a high profile individual (such folks are, traditionally, subject to much higher scrutiny from people both within and without) are an accident. That becomes less believable once you get to number three, number four, etc. And when the list of people who would have been glad to see Epstein dead is so long and influential (i.e., wealthy) I'd be shocked if his suicide was completely unassisted."

• "He knew too much so others needed him out of the way. Suicide was cleaner than murder and the "others" probably threatened to kill people he actually cared about. He ran in high circles and those circles do not like their secrets outed."

Epstein was murdered (30%) – "He knew a lot of compromising information about powerful individuals who would be ruined socially and politically if their crimes were revealed."

• "Too many coincidences leading up to his death that allowed it to go “unnoticed”; cameras down, staffing issues etc. It all points to someone needing access in and out of Epstien’s cell undetected."

Unsure/other (17%) – "I think with the evidence of how poorly things were handled in general, (equipment not recording anything at the top of that list) anything is possible and none of us are any the wiser."
