1. Many have asked how we can be sure Epstein is really dead and not whisked away to another country with another deceased person substituting for him. Generally, this is the stuff of Hollywood scripts. Of course with this administration . . .
2. we’ve learned to question everything (think “no obstruction, no collusion, total exoneration”). When a body arrives at a medical examiner’s office they will “roll the prints.” Once they have the decedent’s fingerprints they will submit them to the appropriate authorities . . .
3. for comparison to the “known prints” of the person they believe the deceased to be. Authorities can also run prints through the AFIS database (Automated Fingerprint Identification System) to screen them for possible matches. This is the process employed when . . .
4. a body comes in as a John/Jane Doe. However, even if authorities get an AFIS “hit” they will still confirm the match by obtaining the known/inked prints of the person and submit them, along with the prints taken by the medical examiner, to a fingerprint examination expert ...
5. Epstein’s known prints would be available from a number of sources, including his recent arrest in his federal case & from his prior arrest in Florida. Another way to confirm the identity of a corpse is by DNA testing. Tissue/blood samples are taken at the time of autopsy ...
6. that could be used in a number of ways to identify the body as that of Jeffrey Epstein. Could all this be orchestrated to cover up a scheme by which a different body was substituted for Epstein’s? Needless to say, anything’s possible. But it would take the complicity . . .
7. of many, including members of the New York City Medical Examiner’s Office & the private forensic pathologist hired by Epstein’s family to observe the autopsy. Now, I’m quite skeptical of our government’s current “leadership”, particularly . . .
8. given the one-two obstructive puch of Trump/Barr. But I think there would have to be so many people involved to pull off a body swap that someone inevitably would spill the beans. Unfortunately, conspiracy theories grow and thrive in today’s Petri dish of government distrust.
