Anyone else notice how many "suicides" happen right before people are set to testify against powerful figures?

Right so I'll probably get called a tin foil hat merchant for this but the sheer statistical improbability of it is what gets me. Like if you actually sit down and look at the numbers around high profile cases - Epstein being the obvious one everyone brings up - the clustering of deaths around testimony dates is genuinely difficult to explain through random chance alone.

I'm not saying I have answers, I'm genuinely quite skeptical of most conspiracy stuff by default. But there's a difference between wild speculation and just pointing at a pattern and asking why nobody in mainstream media seems particularly bothered to investigate it properly.

What would it actually take for people to start asking these questions seriously rather than immediately reaching for the "conspiracy theorist" label to shut the conversation down? That's what frustrates me more than anything tbh.

Not really my area tbh, I stick mostly to ghost hunting. But I'd be careful throwing statistics around without actually running the numbers properly - confirmation bias is a real thing and we tend to notice the cases that fit the narrative and forget all the ones that don't.

Doesn't mean theres nothing to look at, just saying the "statistical improbability" argument only works if someone has actually done the maths rather than just it feeling that way.
