As Jeffrey Epstein’s connections to the rich and powerful were churned up following his arrest last month, there has been no shortage of armchair commentators predicting the billionaire charged with sex trafficking might die ahead of his trial. Then, his body was found lifeless on Aug 10. in his a New York prison cell.
Perhaps one of those more qualified predictions came from Larry Lavine, a former federal prisoner turned prison consultant who stayed at a similar facility, and predicted that Epstein would be found dead from an apparent suicide.
