A renowned pathologist who witnessed Jeffrey Epstein’s autopsy is demanding a fresh investigation into the circumstances of his death.
He claims that newly released information suggests that the pedophile was murdered.
Dr. Michael Baden, who was New York City’s chief medical examiner in the 1970s, was so alarmed by what he saw in the August 2019 exam that he publicly declared that “the evidence points toward homicide rather than suicide.”
In an interview published last week he told the Telegraph“That was my opinion at that time, and I still stand by it”.
InfoWars reports: He claimed “The autopsy findings are much more consistent with a crushing injury caused by homicidal strangulation than caused by hanging by suicide.”
Baden said that information in the Epstein files confirms his belief that the medical examiner was too quick to rule the death a suicide.
There was suspicious behavior at the Metropolitan Correctional Center on the night of Epstein’s death, including video footage that appears to show an inmate moving towards the disgraced financier’s cell.
“Given all the information now available, further investigation into the cause and manner of death is warranted,” Baden insisted.
Baden witnessed the autopsy at the insistence of Epstein’s brother, Mark Epstein, who maintains his brother was murdered.
The New York Post explains, “Baden said he and then-Chief Medical Examiner Barbara Sampson agreed that the results were inconclusive and ‘more information was needed to determine the cause and manner of death.’
“Newly released documents also show that the cause of death was initially marked as pending, which, Baden believes, suggests he was correct to think they were waiting for more info.
“Instead, just five days later, Sampson declared Epstein’s death a suicide by hanging, blindsiding the expert witness.”
Baden continued, describing how the findings of the autopsy were more consistent with a crushing injury to the neck than strangulation with a bedsheet, but further investigation was not carried out.
Baden pointed, in particular, to three fractures in Epstein’s neck, something he had never witnessed in his decades as a medical examiner.
Even one fracture, we have to investigate the possibility of a homicide. Two definitely warrant a full investigation,” he told the Telegraph.
“Findings in textbooks never see those fractures, and neither have I.”
