BREAKING: Medical examiner rules Jeffrey Epstein's death a suicide, says he hanged himself in his jail cell BREAKING: Medical examiner rules Jeffrey Epstein's death a suicide, says he hanged himself in his jail cell https://twitter.com/ap/status/1162458697064439813?s=21 Epstein's blood vessels in his eyes popped when his air supply was cut off by the bed sheet that was wrapped around his neck ... this according to law enforcement sources briefed on the case. We're told he suffered petechial hemorrhaging, caused when someone hangs himself or is strangled or smothered, but authorities are confident this was a hanging.  We're told the bed sheets were tied to the top of a bunk bed and Epstein either hurled himself off the top bunk or had his feet to the ground and leaned forward to cut off his air supply. Authorities believe the former is true, because throwing himself off the top bunk and falling violently to the ground could explain why his hyoid bone was fractured. -TMZ —————————————————————————————————————-
