This article spends paragraphs claiming it's going to knock down conspiracy theories, then essentially concludes (I think, the writing is interminable) that Epstein was a skilled and systematic blackmailer who worked for the CIA. It doesn't even bother to address the interesting questions of who organized this; what the goals and results were; where the money came from; where the evidence went, etc. ETA: According to the theory outlined in this post, someone ran a massive blackmail scheme against many of our society's most influential figures with help and backing from the CIA, and then those organizations protected Epstein from prosecution while ensuring that the blackmail evidence was carefully retained and kept out of public view following his death. If even partially true this is the most serious conspiracy theory of our time. Your only interest is in writing a skeptic piece about whether Epstein was murdered?
