The conspiracy surrounding Epstein’s death focuses on how he died, if not made obvious by the infamous “Epstein didn’t kill himself” social media trend. Admittedly, lots of evidence is available to support the theory. To add on to the expanding list of failures within the prison, none of the cameras located in Epstein’s hall were recording the live feed that day (Investigation and Review. 81). This led many people to assume they had been turned off on purpose, leaving an opening for Jeffrey’s cellmate to attack, as he had allegedly done in the past. Why would his cellmate attack him? Several believe an outside client or possible accomplice of Epstein’s paid his cellmate to kill Jeffrey. Although this seems outlandish at first, Jeffrey’s court documents include names of Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, Ehud Barak, Kevin Spacey, and Bill Richardson. Although they were not accused of anything, many of their names were mentioned multiple times as eyewitnesses to trafficking and “close friends” of Epstein’s (Chappell). Alexander Acosta, labor secretary under Donald Trump, played a pivotal role in lightening Epstein’s sentencing in

Epstein got the deal of a lifetime when his secret plea deal got him a pity excuse for a sentence in which he only served 13 months and was able to leave with work release privileges. This stark contrast to the harsh punishments faced by individuals from lower socioeconomic backgrounds for similar offences highlights the inherent inequality within the justice system and is a clear example of social conflict theory which was discussed earlier. This case raises immense concern about the integrity of the justice system, as the fact that Epstein was able to manipulate the system and evade justice for so long proves there is work that needs to be done to truly keep the law neutral and impartial for everyone. The social or financial status of an individual should not influence the treatment they receive from the criminal justice system, yet the system continuously fails to ensure all citizens get equal and just treatment under the law which is proved through this case and only exemplifies the power dynamics and biases that favour the influential and rich of
