A *true* "hangman's fracture", which stops breathing instantly, involves the high cervical vertebrae, C2, C3, and C4. If the spinal cord is transected that high up, death is immediate. This kind of fracture is almost always associated with a correctly fashioned noose and a fall.In Epstein's case, one of two things is possible: either he tied a bedsheet or a garment to a bedframe or doorknob, knelt down, leaned forward, and strangled to death, or someone choked the life out of him. Whichever it was, it was airway compression that killed him, not a true hanging. Still, I'm having a hard time believing that the same prison that successfully held El Chapo, one of the slipperiest gangsters of modern times, could botch the custody of another high-profile inmate so thoroughly. That just doesn't add up. |
