45. No need for drug gangs to kill Epstein. He was already in jail
Mon Feb 2, 2026, 05:43 PM

and no threat to their drug business.

The people with the big motives to kill Epstein were the ones he and Trump had blackmailed over the years, and anybody Epstein could harm by cooperating with the Feds. In other words, fellow money launderers.

Problem is, that narrows it down to about 500 people with huge motives for Epstein to be dead. The key is that 2 weeks before his death, his lawyers started the process of proffering to get a plea deal for Epstein. Find out who he was going to throw under the bus and probably found the person responsible for his murder.
