Jeffrey Epstein has killed himself.

I didn't read any news about this yet, I just saw a blurb at the diner. (Link.)

On the one hand, I'm not grieving. He seems to have been a thoroughly awful person.

On the other hand, he already attempted suicide not that long ago. If suicide watch can mess up this badly with somebody who is both a. rich and b. very much in the public eye right now, how much care are they taking with every random dude off the street?

Conspiracy theorists and their jargon make me twitch, but in this case I can't help but feel that the term "suicided" might be relevant here. As in, "he was suicided."

Even if it was more a matter of conveniently looking the other way rather than actual murder.
