🚨 MUST SEE: The Doctor Who Performed The Autopsy on Jeffrey Epstein Claimed… 👉
The death of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein in federal custody in 2019 continues to generate public interest and scrutiny — especially around the findings of his autopsy. Epstein was found unresponsive in his jail cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan while awaiting trial on federal sex‑trafficking charges. Officials quickly concluded that he died by suicide by hanging.
However, **Dr. Michael Baden**, a veteran forensic pathologist who was **hired by Epstein’s family to observe the autopsy**, has repeatedly said that the physical evidence raised questions about that conclusion. Baden — a former New York City medical examiner with decades of experience in high‑profile death investigations — has publicly stated that certain injuries observed during the examination are *more consistent with homicidal strangulation than suicide by hanging*. (
Baden pointed specifically to **multiple fractures in Epstein’s neck**, including in the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage, which he described as “very unusual” for a suicidal hanging and more commonly associated with homicidal cases. He also noted hemorrhaging around the neck that, in his view, supported the possibility of external compression inconsistent with self‑inflicted hanging.
Importantly, **Baden did not perform the autopsy himself** — the official examination was conducted by **Dr. Barbara Sampson**, the Chief Medical Examiner for New York City — and that office has maintained its conclusion that Epstein’s death was a suicide by hanging.
Federal investigators and medical officials have pointed to other factors — such as the lack of clear evidence of a struggle, toxicology results, and the condition of the ligature — to support the original suicide ruling. They also noted serious security and procedural failures at the prison that complicated the case.
Despite these competing interpretations, **there is no official reversal of the suicide conclusion**. Claims suggesting a government cover‑up or other involvement remain unsubstantiated, though they persist among critics and in public discourse.
As new documents continue to be released under transparency laws, discussions about Epstein’s death — and the differing interpretations of the autopsy evidence — continue to fuel debate.
