Epstein, 66, had two breaks on each side of his thyroid cartilage, near the Adam’s apple, and one above it on the left side of his hyoid bone, according to the image provided to Law&Crime Wednesday by Dr. Michael Baden.
In suicidal hangings, the binding “usually goes up under the mandible — the jaw bone — which is a tough bone. It doesn’t fracture,” Baden explained.

Baden, the host of HBO’s “Autopsy,” was hired by the pervert’s brother, Mark Epstein, to observe his autopsy after he was found hanged Aug. 10 in his Manhattan lockup, while awaiting trial on child sex-trafficking charges.
The twisted multimillionaire’s cause of death was ruled a suicide by hanging Aug. 16 by the city’s Medical Examiner’s Office.
Earlier Wednesday, Baden, who was New York’s Chief Medical Examiner from 1978 to 1979, presented his findings on Fox News, saying, “I think that the evidence points toward homicide rather than suicide.”
If Epstein was killed, “a number of people had to be involved,” Baden said. “It’s 80 days now, and the brother feels he is getting a runaround. He thinks that his brother wasn’t the type to commit suicide but he wants to get the information that he hasn’t been able to get so far.”
