Forensic Expert Reignites Mystery: Was Jeffrey Epstein Strangled?

Dr. Baden’s primary contention lies in the specific injuries found on Epstein’s neck during the post-mortem examination. According to the pathologist, Epstein suffered three distinct fractures: one in the hyoid bone on the left side and two in the thyroid cartilage on both the left and right sides. In his fifty years of investigating deaths in New York correctional facilities, Dr. Baden notes that he has never seen a suicide by hanging result in three such fractures. He emphasizes that even a single fracture of this nature warrants a thorough investigation into potential homicide, making three fractures an extremely rare and suspicious finding for a suicide.
