They had a near miss the month before when Epstein attempted suicide the first time.

  You call it suicide attempt, but it seems Epstein said he was attacked by a cell mate that ended up being convicted of four murders.

    The problem is that telling people that you didn’t attempt suicide and that you are not currently suicidal is also consistent with someone who is, in fact, currently suicidal and wants another opportunity. that is to say, what he told his lawyers is not at all inconsistent with what supposedly happened later. It’s also worth noting that it was the cellmate’s lawyer who asked that the camera footage of their cell be preserved. Lastly, Epstein trying and failing to kill himself seems more likely than that particular cellmate trying and failing to kill Epstein. I don’t think what really happened will ever be clearer than mud, unfortunately.

      Did you notice cellmate means you are in the same cell? A suicide attempt but the cellmate said he saw or heard nothing? How big are these cells?

    Even hardened common-law criminals find pedophiles beyond the pale and will often get violent with them, finding the guilt-by-association of being imprisoned in the same facility unbearable.
