Normally I don't think anyone has a right to know the circumstances of someone's tragedy, but in this case I'd really like to know if he threw himself off a roof onto some bullets.

    Actually suicide, because that's how this works.

    Capitalist society is a weapon that can be turned on anyone at any time. Ask yourself how many missed paychecks you are from homelessness, and then speak out to learn if you're right.

    here's the key quote from the article.

    Shortly after the episode aired, Andriesz spoke at a Transparency Task Force event about what he said was the UK regulator’s mistreatment of whistleblowers, describing the personal cost of coming forward to his career, his health and his family.

    You're right. Even if it was suicide, that doesn't mean he wasn't harassed to the point that suicide felt like the only way to escape the consequences of telling the truth. But in this day and age, I don't trust suicide to be suicide. From black suicides by hanging to Russians falling out of windows, reports of suicide get less credible with every passing year.

    While I'm not quite on board with the Epstein was murdered conspiracy theory, circumstances were weird as fuck, and if you grant the possibility, it certainly makes another Epstein-related suicide worthy of greater scrutiny.
