Doctor at Epstein's post-mortem claims he was strangled not hanged
Forensic pathologist Dr Michael Baden disputes suicide ruling, citing neck injuries consistent with strangulation and calls for renewed investigation amid DOJ file releases and CCTV gaps.
- This past week, Dr Michael Baden, forensic pathologist observing Epstein's post-mortem, renewed doubts about the 2019 suicide ruling and said further investigation is warranted, stating, `My opinion is that his death was most likely caused by strangulation pressure rather than hanging.`
- The Department of Justice's release of three million related files has revived questions about that night, including CCTV showing a `missing minute` and an `orange flash` near Epstein's cell.
- Baden, present as an observer, said the autopsy left the `manner of death` unresolved and noted three neck fractures, an orange strip, and torn bedding resembling nooses.
- Epstein's lawyers and Baden have called for the case to be reopened, saying they remain unsatisfied with the medical examiner's conclusions, despite Dr Barbara Sampson and federal agencies maintaining the suicide ruling.
- Senior forensic figures remain publicly at odds over Epstein's cause of death, and ongoing DOJ file releases keep scrutiny alive, prompting calls for further investigation.
