Jeffrey Epstein was offered a sweetheart plea deal by federal prosecutors in return for incriminating information that would lead to President Trump’s impeachment, according to the late pedophile’s cellmate.

Ex-Westchester cop and convicted killer Nicholas Tartaglione, Epstein’s bunkmate at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan weeks before his death in August 2019, said the disgraced financier dished on the dirt-digging expedition after a confab with the feds.

“He said, ‘When you were a cop, what do you know about proffers and cooperating?’ I said, ‘Jeff, it’s pretty simple, the prosecutors, you know, they caught a fish — you. They’re not gonna let that fish off the hook unless you give them a bigger fish,'” recalled Tartaglione in a phone call with Jessica Reed Kraus, a California-based self-described journalist who recorded the conversation and later posted it to her Substack.

“He said, ‘Yeah, well, that’s what they said,'” the quadruple murderer recalled. “He said, ‘They told me they’d let me plead out something small, and I’ll do just a couple of years in a camp, if I can give them something on Trump to get him impeached.’

“He says, but the government told me I don’t have to prove what I say about Trump, as long as Trump’s people can’t disprove it,” Tartaglione said — adding that Epstein considered “making stuff up” to save his skin.  ...
Perhaps Jeff didn't deliver the goods, thus the "hanging."

Perhaps his ex-cellmate is lying.

A distinct possibility. He is, after all, a convicted felon.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.
Perhaps there wasn't any dirt to deliver. :shrug:

Who else has been so thoroughly investigated and surveilled on so many levels, and the very best they could do was the pile of dung they threw at him in New York?

If there had been any meat there, they would not have been gluing together bone meal.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
