EPSTEINS AUTOPSY CONFIRMS HE WAS STRANGULATED FROM THE FRONT WITH TWO HANDS. An autopsy found that financier Jeffrey Epstein sustained multiple breaks in his neck bones, according to two people familiar with the findings, deepening the mystery about the circumstances around his death. Among the bones broken in Epstein’s neck was the hyoid bone, which in men is near the Adam’s apple. Such breaks can occur in those who hang themselves, particularly if they are older, according to forensics experts and studies on the subject. But they are more common in victims of homicide by strangulation, the experts said. Place your hands around your neck, where your thumbs cross over around your adams apple (that area) apply pressure there, and then squeeze with your other fingers as hard as you can on your spine. Thats how you break that bone as you choke someone to death. No prison sheets can strangulate you. There was no bunk bed to hang himself from.
