The New York City Medical Examiner’s Office ruled Epstein’s death a suicide by hanging, but a forensic pathologist who observed the four-hour autopsy on behalf of \u00a0Epstein’s brother, Mark, tells 60 Minutes the evidence released\u00a0so far points more to murder than suicide<\/strong>\u00a0in his view. Dr. Michael Baden’s key reason: the unusual fractures he saw in Epstein’s neck. –CBS News<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n While we’ve heard all sorts of theories about the improbabilities of the force required by the nearly 6 foot tall Epstein to successfully hang himself while breaking an unusual\u00a0three<\/strong>\u00a0bones in his neck usually seen in strangulations,\u00a0that’s nowhere near the most peculiar part of Epstein’s demise<\/strong>\u00a0(notwithstanding the ol’ homeless guy switcharoo theory).<\/p>\n For the first time, we get to look at\u00a0the noose Epstein used to allegedly kill himself<\/strong>. Photos admitted as evidence reveal a clean cloth with no blood, despite Epstein’s clearly bloody neck. Moreover, both ends of the noose were hemmed, not cut – while the guard who found Epstein reportedly cut him down.<\/p>\n Also odd is that Epstein’s ligature wound, allegedly left by said bloodless noose, is fairly low on his neck.<\/p>\n “It doesn’t look like anybody ever took scissors to it<\/strong>,” said 60 Minutes’ Sharyn Alfonsi. “So there is some question\u2014is that the right noose?”<\/p>\n \u201cI have never seen three fractures like this in a suicidal hanging.\u201d<\/p>\n Dr. Michael Baden lays out the forensic reasons why he\u2019s skeptical of the medical examiner\u2019s ruling that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself. **This video contains graphic images.** https:\/\/t.co\/rZDRtPchod<\/a> pic.twitter.com\/sAkIch7sBF<\/a><\/p>\n — 60 Minutes (@60Minutes) January 6, 2020<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.zerohedge.com\/s3\/files\/inline-images\/epstein%20face%20a_2.jpg?itok=w57Wu37B\")
