   A renowned pathologist who was at Jeffrey Epstein’s autopsy is demanding   
   a fresh investigation, insisting newly released info only confirms his   
   belief that the notorious pedophile was murdered.   
      
   Dr. Michael Baden, who was New York City’s chief medical examiner in the   
   1970s, was so alarmed by what he saw in the August 2019 exam that he   
   publicly declared “the evidence points toward homicide rather than   
   suicide.”   
      
   “That was my opinion at that time, and I still stand by it,” the famed   
   pathologist told the Telegraph in an interview published Friday.   
      
   “The autopsy findings are much more consistent with a crushing injury   
   caused by homicidal strangulation than caused by hanging by suicide.”   
      
   In fact, Baden insisted, documents released in the Epstein files   
   reinforce his belief that the medical examiner rushed to call the death   
   a suicide.   
      
   It also showed there was reason to believe that suspicious behavior in   
   the Metropolitan Correctional Center at the time — including a flash of   
   orange on videos that looked like a possible inmate — should not have   
   been dismissed as foolish conspiracies.   
      
   “Given all the information now available, further investigation into the   
   cause and manner of death is warranted,” Baden insisted in his latest   
   interview.   
      
   Baden had been a witness to the autopsy at the request of Epstein’s   
   brother, Mark Epstein, who has long believed his brother was murdered.   
      
   Baden said he and then-Chief Medical Examiner Barbara Sampson agreed   
   that the results were inconclusive and “more information was needed to   
   determine the cause and manner of death.”   
      
   Newly released documents also show that the cause of death was initially   
   marked as pending, which, Baden believes, suggests he was correct to   
   think they were waiting for more info.   
      
   Instead, just five days later, Sampson declared Epstein’s death a   
   suicide by hanging, blindsiding the expert witness.   
      
   “I have not seen any evidence of further study, nothing that indicated   
   further investigation into the cause of death,” Baden told the Telegraph   
   of his shock at the sudden ruling that defied what he had witnessed.   
      
   “The autopsy findings are much more consistent with a crushing injury   
   caused by homicidal strangulation than caused by hanging by suicide.”   
      
   Specifically, the doctor pointed to three fractures in Epstein’s neck,   
   which he has never witnessed in a hanging suicide in his decades-long   
   career.   
      
   “Even one fracture, we have to investigate the possibility of a   
   homicide. Two definitely warrant a full investigation,” he told the   
   paper. “Findings in textbooks never see those fractures, and neither   
   have I.”   
      
   Baden additionally maintains that the injuries were not consistent with   
   a noose made from a bedsheet, as officials claimed.   
      
   “It wasn’t smooth like the sheet, the markings [on Epstein’s neck] would   
   have required a different type of material,” he said.   
      
   Sampson has repeatedly dismissed any evidence of strangulation and   
   defended her office’s findings. The suicide ruling has been accepted by   
   the Trump administration.   
      
   A panel of six senior forensic pathologists prepared an exclusive report   
   in 2024 for The Post, re-examining the full autopsy, crime scene   
   pictures and all available information at the time.
