I get why Epstein was killed but why would anyone want McAfee dead?

Well obviously their computer still had viruses after buying the software

He had a wild life, so who really knows. But there is a huge conspiracy theory around his death. QAnon is even involved. I don't personally give it any legitimacy, but it is a deep interesting rabbit hole. I can't find a source that I'm willing to actually link.

The issue is he posted a tweet about how the CIA was after him and then died very shortly after. He was such a wildcard that my personal conspiracy theory is that he made that announcement and faked his death just to stir shit up.

Also here's how to remove McAfee from your computer, by the man himself. https://youtu.be/bKgf5PaBzyg

No one should have to use xhamster.

They wouldn't. If anything his regular references to how he wouldn't kill himself by hanging is evidence of suicidal ideation.

Be careful asking questions like that!!11

What makes you think that Epstein was killed?

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

He had dirt on a lot of powerful people, and the circumstances around his death were extremely suspicious.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 week ago (1 children)

What makes you think he wasn't? His death was suspicious regardless.

[–] [email protected] -1 points 6 days ago (2 children)

Occam's Razor. There isn't any evidence that he was murdered, so it makes sense to consider it a suicide.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago (1 children)

Have you read anything about this? Multiple suicide attempts, eventually on suicide watch and every time CCTV fails, footage even gets deleted from automatic backup. This shit wouldn't have made it into a movie, it's too unbelievable.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 6 days ago

I think it's exactly what you would write into a movie to make it clear to anyone paying even half attention that he was definitely murdered. It's so unsubtle it makes me think it was almost a message - we can kill people this brazenly and it doesn't even get investigated. We are untouchable.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 6 days ago

He was supposed to have a cellmate but didn't have one that night. Guards were supposed to check in on him constantly but didn't do it that night. The surveillance camera malfunctioned that night. He had broken bones in his neck that often break when you're strangulated and rarely when hanging yourself.

You're telling me that it's more likely for these 4 events to happen at the same time than for someone rich and powerful to just pay a couple of people to have him killed?
