Jeffrey Epstein's apparent suicide Saturday morning in a federal jail launched new conspiracy theories online in a saga that has provided fodder for them for years, fueled by Epstein's ties to princes, politicians and other famous and powerful people.

Jeffrey Epstein's apparent suicide Saturday morning in a federal jail launched new conspiracy theories online in a saga that has provided fodder for them for years, fueled by Epstein's ties to princes, politicians and other famous and powerful people.

The combination created fertile ground for theories and misinformation to breed on social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter and YouTube. Meanwhile, a manipulated photo , shared by thousands on Twitter and Facebook, falsely claimed to show Epstein with Trump and a young Ivanka Trump, the president's daughter.Clinton spokesman Angel Ureña said the former president"knows nothing about the terrible crimes Jeffrey Epstein pleaded guilty to in Florida some years ago, or those with which he has been recently charged in New York.

She also said"it's not for me to go further than where the DOJ and FBI are right now," though that's what Trump appeared to be doing in his retweet.Republican Sen. Rick Scott of Florida, the state where some of Epstein's alleged sexual abuse crimes took place, suggested the possibility that others might have been involved in Epstein's death when he called on corrections officials to explain what happened at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan.

He now stands before the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. I wonder what he has to say in his defense.

Of course all you moronic dems are claiming Trump did this when all you have are pics of them from 20 years ago. The evidence of Bill Clinton taking at least 26 trips on Epstein’s “Lolita express” is overwhelming. You people wouldn’t know truth if it hit you in the face

ANYONE connected to Epstein, princes, former presidents, currents presidents, politicians or other famous people, all of them, should be investigated and held accountable if they were involved with sex and underage children.

hollywood is saying Barr went and kill Epstein. Document prove he sent sex slaves to Al Gore and prince Andrew and more democrats, Said Bill Clinton hosted parties on the island more documents are coming

Anyone with half a brain knew this guy would get killed in Jail.

sheilaaj Hey ABC, love that you chose this shareblue stalwart memo item to 'report' on. You never disappoint.

People have way to much free time on their hands

Remember Oswald was shot in a police station while in police custody.

Change your headline scunbag ABC... 'Apparent'?

I bet that “investigation” will no longer happen, while children are still being raped & murdered by these rich white ppl. I’d bet everything I have the reason trump decided to steal kids from the border is to supply his buddies with some kids.

Theory 69! George Stephanopoulos had Jeffrey Epstein taken out in order to AVOID discussing his relationship with Epstein, Clinton and his PLAYMATES.

Saturday morning you say? This came out Friday.

Clinton's do it again. How much did the guards get to skip a shift or two? No way this is suicide. Bill was in that jet dozens of times.

'Suicide comes 24 hours after court documents were unsealed implicating powerful men in sex scandals'

I want exactly call them conspiracy theories yet. It'll be interesting when the investigation is complete.

Trump had him killed

How dare you call it a conspiracy theory.

Mainly has to do with Bill Clintonxand the fact that people who are witnesses to their crimes usually end up dead.

This is too obvious. Internet propaganda machine was ready to spread conspiracy theories the second Epstein's death was made public. Diversion tactics so typical of Trump et all.

Either someone killed Epstein or he was given a choice of kill yourself or we kill your family. Too many powerful people wanted this man silenced. No one is buying this suicide bullshit narrative. This has coverup written all over it.

MI 6 did it

William Barr, Trump’s Attorney General, is responsible for the performance and behavior of federal officers who were responsible for Epstein’s imprisonment conditions. These officers under Barr’s watch were able to protect Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman but not Jeffrey Epstein.

With all that money and very good attorneys he was going to wait and see . But they had to kill him . Now comes the coverups.

You forgot to mention that AOC called for a bi-partisan investigation into his death, and event the mayor of NYC, De Blasio also called for an investigation.

I can't believe after 2016 and the years after that people still fall for troll factory conspiracies spreading online that are so far fetched that its almost comical

What evidence does abc have to call it apparent?

Wasnt it a 'conspiracy theory' that Jeffrey Epstien was this well connected person who was pimping and having sex with children? Pretty sure we are well out of 'conspiracy theory' territory at this point.

Let the investigation and the trial continue. Bury the conspiracy theory. The only thing we have lost is JE’s defense. So what. Bring it on and “sentence” his name.

It's a pick & choose guilt by association then let the conspiracy theories begin.

And just like Epstein, real journalism is dead.

Why did Stormy's Boyfriend appoint such an incompetent Attorney General as Barr?!? Why did Barr move Epstein there & allow this to happen?!? Another pervert's failure?!? Impeach Illigitamate Perverted PluckerHead... DuckFrumpf

are they sure he killed himself or was he killed by all the people he could point a finger at

Jeffrey Epstein's apparent homicide Saturday morning in a federal jail launched new conspiracy theories online in a saga that has provided fodder for them for years, fueled by Epstein's ties to princes, politicians and other powerful people revealed in the ‘Pedophile Papers’

Oh no anything but the 'conspiracy theories' that discredit ABC's news reports 😭

OK, I have a simple question. Who originally reported Epstein's death? Most stories seem to refer back to ABC News, but the ABC News story just references anonymous sources. Has there been ANY official announcement of Epstein's death from the prison, Sheriff's Office etc?

Apparent murder by the Clinton Cartel...

It's a much more plausible theory than 'Climate Change is going to kill us all'.

Anybody heard from Anthony Weiner? After all he was close to the Clintons and did have a thing for young girls. I also wonder what was in those 33K emails and devices that Killary made disappear?

The term 'conspiracy theory' was created to discredit any speculation against the media's force fed narrative. A narrative that has been exposed and is losing it's control of public perspective.

Occams Razor. To commit suicide. Where is the footage? Camera malfunction. Personnel, eye witness', none. A high profile millionaire and known pedophile and sex offender tried to commit suicide a week prior, supposedly cleared by a psychologist. (shouldn't have happened). 1/2

Conspiracies are part of humanity. Theories about them are rational things. Media not investigating, and calling people names for being rational about this obvious murder only convince us that this rabbit hole goes deep and folks at abc are likely implicated.

This is just crazy

For years there were “conspiracy theories” about rich guys and their child prostitute islands. Still a conspiracy?

there is a coverup going on and that asshole had to die in order for it to happen. the idea that he was murdered is far more applicable then a man who was on suicide watch and should've had all the items he could kill himself with taken away.

Why won't you shitbags in the news media say it ? He was Bill Clinton's buddy. Epstein was Bill Clinton's buddy Epstein was Bill Clinton's buddy Epstein was Bill Clinton's buddy. Epstein was Bill Clinton's buddy ! How many dead bodies have the Clintons Left Behind over the yrs ?

Epstein suicide prompts conspiracy theories, skepticismRepublican Sen. Rick Scott of Florida suggested the possibility that a criminal act was involved in Epstein's death when he called on federal corrections officials to explain what happened at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan. Dead men tell no secrets. US Attorney General is William Barr I’m treating news of JeffreyEpstein’s death the same as I treated the Iraqi “Weapons of Mass Destruction” Intelligence. Personally, I think Epstein is in Tel Aviv or Davos, alive and well.

After Epstein's suicide, conspiracy theories flourish onlineMany of the theories ventured into the realm of outlandish conjecture, amplified by conservative commentators and at least two Republican officials. Playbook continues. Call it suicide. Broken camera. Order the media to shoosh us as conspiracy theorists. It's hard not to think something went very wrong. That facility is geared for that type of individual. No one in there should have access to things by which to hang oneself. It's very curious. Says the FakeNews

Epstein suicide prompts conspiracy theories, skepticismJeffrey Epstein's apparent suicide in federal custody provokes skepticism among online conspiracy theorists as well as some officials who question how he could have killed himself in a highly secured part of the prison. Logical doubt is not a 'conspiracy theory'. This is on Bill Barr. Whether it's due to incompetence or something nefarious, this is on him. Looking forward to reading the OLC opinion and the corrupt Attorney General 4 pages.
