New York, November 1 (RHC)-- In the U.S., a forensic pathologist hired by the brother of Jeffrey Epstein says the injuries that killed the multimillionaire sex abuser were consistent with strangulation -- not a death by suicide -- as a New York medical examiner reported. 

Dr. Michael Baden says a broken bone in Epstein’s neck is “extremely unusual in suicidal hangings and could occur much more commonly in homicidal strangulation.” 

Epstein was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell in August as he awaited trial on federal sex trafficking charges.  Epstein once counted President Donald Trump and former President Bill Clinton among his high-profile friends.
