Look, I get why people are skeptical. But we need to separate what we actually know from what we suspect. The autopsy findings - hyoid bone fracture, ligature marks - those can occur in suicides. Do they *typically*? No. But atypical doesn't equal impossible. The camera malfunction is suspicious as hell, sure. But suspicion isn't evidence of murder. What we're missing are the things that would actually matter: credible witness testimony, forensic evidence of a third party, something beyond 'this seems weird.' The institutional failures - the prosecutors who let him walk in 2008, the SDNY that sat on the ABC News reporting, the whole system that protected him for decades - *that* is proven. Maybe we should be angrier about that than speculating about the manner of death.

People want to believe there's a grand conspiracy because a suicide ruling feels like a coverup. But that's kind of the thing about institutions - they're usually just incompetent and self-protective without needing to orchestrate murder. Broken cameras, negligent guards, a medical examiner's inconclusive report - that's the normal state of things, not proof of a hit job. The real scandal is how long he operated with protection. The real names that matter are the ones in those flight logs.

I work with survivors and I'll tell you what haunts them most - it's not whether he died by his own hand or someone else's. It's that he was arrested, he had names, and institutions failed them over and over. The 2019 arrest meant something was finally happening. Then he died in custody and suddenly everyone's fighting about autopsy details instead of asking why JPMorgan Chase was funneling his money for years after everyone knew what he was.
