What raises my eyebrows is that he was taken off suicide watch which results in a reduction in cell checks. Is security film going to surface? If that shit disappears then it’s a murder.
You only keep suicide watch for a certain period of time. Usually 72 hours or less. Now even with him being off suicide watch, the officers are supposed to do rounds every 30-40 minutes. From the way it sounds, he hung himself sometime after the 3 AM count and 6 AM. That means whomever was working the area he was, didn't do their job of cell checks.
More fake news. You can hang yourself in just a few minutes.
Not really. As I understand it, the fixtures usually do not accommodate fitting an entire bedsheet, so you have to tear strips and braid them together. That takes a lot of time and makes noise.
One can hang oneself with a 12 inch length of material and an18 inch tieoff... tie the loop and sit. As long as your ass stays off the floor the noose tightens. Just a matter of not bailing out until you pass out.
Uh no. Prisons today are designed to prevent suicide, IF THEY ARE RUN PROPERLY.
Get informed. Don’t believe the lies from the criminals in the ruling class.
Jail suicides are almost entirely preventable,
a HuffPost investigation found in 2016, and they’re far more common than you might think: Suicide has been the most common cause of jail deaths for every year dating back to 2000. The number of detainee suicides hit a record high with an average of more than one per day in 2014, the year for which the most recent Justice Department data is available. Three-hundred and seventy-two people killed themselves, accounting for more than a third of all inmate deaths that year, according to the latest
Bureau of Justice Statistics report on mortality in local jails. It was a 13% increase from suicide deaths in 2013.
Inmates face a greater risk of harm when jail authorities neglect to follow protocol. Those with a history of serious mental health issues or suicidal behavior need to be under continuous supervision, experts
told HuffPost, as it can take just five minutes to die by strangulation, for example.
“Under the circumstances, I would have a staff member sitting there or have a camera on [Epstein] 24/7 while he was in my custody, purely to cover my butt,” Bob Hood, a former federal Bureau of Prisons chief of internal affairs,
told NBC. “I know that sounds tacky, but this is not your average inmate.”
Not only had Epstein seemingly already attempted to take his own life, but he was also due to stand trial for federal criminal sex charges. Accused sex offenders are at a
significantly higher risk of suicide than members of the general population.
“People often say, ‘Well, if somebody wants to kill themselves, they’re going to kill themselves,’” Margo Schlanger, a law professor at the University of Michigan who specializes in criminal justice, told HuffPost in 2016. “That’s false. If you run a jail with an appropriate degree of suicide prevention, you get almost zero.”
