Lol. This will destroy any progress they thought they were making burying the Epstein story, even if it is natural causes

    "at the age of 80 after an illness"... Not that anyone is going to read that far.

    The world's elite rulers are credibly accused of molesting children for decades and doing everything possible to deny it, including seemingly the murder of the alleged Israeli spy that has evidence of their crimes. His lawyer who potentially knows way too much conveniently dies when he's granted legal protection to speak up, and we should just accept that 80 year old sick man died?

    Maybe, but you'd be very naive to dismiss foul play.

    That's not what the headline says, OP unless it's changed since you posted it.

    He was sick and 80. He died. Not "found dead".

    Black died on Monday at his home in Coral Gables at the age of 80 after an illness, his law partner Howard Srebnick said.

    Okay, he was very old and ill, but I'm still suspicious!

    What's with the headline - "found dead?" His law partner said he died, at 80, after a long illness. Nowhere in the article, following that headline, did it mention he was "found dead," which, juxtaposed in the same sentence as Epstein, makes it sound nefarious, when in fact, it was just an old guy dying after an unnamed prolonged illness. My guess would be cancer. Not exactly a "found dead" context.

    Reading his history he was famous for defending assholes getting scot free or getting much less than they deserved. Was one of those "if you have the money he'll fix it"

    always supported and fought for the underdog

    I have a hard time imagining a world where Epstein, Bieber, the Kennedys, or any of their ilk could be considered underdogs. Good riddance.

    Funny how these assassinations only happen when trump is president

    Stop posting sensationalist shit. The dude died at 80, this wasn't an assassination. He wasn't 'found'

    I don't know much about the man but he chose an excellent time to die.

    Did he fall out a window maybe?

    Nah, he was old and sick, so it's probably natural causes, but it certainly won't help the conspiracy theorists on the right who've been flailing around over Epstein.

    A lot of homicides on old people go unnoticed though, as their deaths are just declared natural without any proper investigation e.g. autopsy.

    Lea Black, his wife, told the Miami Herald that he always "fought for the underdog and people's civil rights."

    "He understood that we all have our flaws...He was able to separate people's behavior from their character. He wanted the best for everyone," she said.

    I knew love was blind, but this is bordering on black hole levels of blindness.

    Actually I respect it. Its easy to view this comment from her to be about Epstein when the article mentions him specifically, but a person's career is more than the 1 bullet point people become known for. I didn't follow his career so I dont really know.

    I think everyone deserves representation in court, no matter how heinous they are. If they have a multi million dollar defense and still go to prision... that fucker is guilty. When they are stuck with some overworked public defender, it starts to raise doubts even when it would otherwise be an obvious case.

    The prosecutor who offered that joke of a deal WAS GIVEN A CABINET POSITION by The Dipshit.

    Acosta was the secretary of labor for 2 years. He's still alive.

    Even though this dude was 80y old, that won't stop far-right conspiracy theorists from running with this. I think most will be sane enough to point out his age, but you know there will be those on the fringe of the fringe who see something suspicious about it. Personally, I look forward to seeing the melted explanations they come up with.
