    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.

      Can’t we just do the GOP playbook and make up a bunch of bullshit, spread rumours, intentionally ignore the facts and live in dipshitland? The answer is no but I do wonder what it’s like over there

        No that just allows differently colored snakes to take over, we don’t beat this by stooping to their level — at least not that level.

      Probably something like, “found dead in his bedroom when the nurse went to check in on him in the morning”. My MiL died in hospice, at home; she wasn’t hooked up to a ton of machines, so we don’t know exactly when she died. She was dead when my spouse woke up from napping.

        The title of the post ≠ the headline of the article, which make it all the more problematic.

      Interesting how you, a seemingly random commenter, seems to have personal knowledge of the death of a lawyer with ties to Epstine.

      How did I do?
