DAVID: A SHOCKING UPDATE IN THE
DEATH OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN.
A FAMOUS FORENSIC PATHOLOGIST
WHO OBSERVED THE AUTOPSY TELLING
"FOX & FRIENDS" SAYING OFFICIAL
REPORTS CARRYING EPSTEIN'S DEATH
AS A SUICIDE MAY NOT BE
ACCURATE.
WATCH?
>> THERE ARE MULTIPLE THREE
FRACTURES IN A BONE, THE THYROID
CARTILAGE THAT ARE VERY UNUSUAL
FOR SUICIDE AND MORE INDICATIVE
OF STRANGULATION, HOMICIDAL
STRANGULATION.
DAVID: THE DOCTOR NOW ALSO SAYS
HE WANTS AN ADDITIONAL DNA
TESTING SESSION.
LET'S BRING IN FOX NEWS SENIOR
JUDICIAL ANALYST JUDGE ANDREW
NAPOLITANO.
JUDGE, WHAT HAPPENS IF THIS WAS
A HOMICIDE?
I MEAN IT REOPENS THE CASE AND
THERE'S A SEARCH FOR A SUSPECT;
RIGHT?
>> WELL, THEORETICALLY THE
FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS
INVESTIGATING -- THE FBI IS
INVESTIGATING THIS BECAUSE SOME
OF THE THINGS THE DOCTOR POINTS
OUT WHICH HAVE NOTHING TO DO
WITH THE AUTOPSY ARE VERY
PECULIAR.
TWO VIDEO CAMERAS NOT WORKING, A
CELLMATE MYSTERIOUSLY REASSIGNED
THE DAY BEFORE EPSTEIN'S DEATH,
TWO GUARDS, NOT ONE, TWO GUARDS
GUARDING THAT AREA BOTH ASLEEP
AT THE TIME.
THIS IS A BIZARRE SERIES OF
COINCIDENCES.
I DON'T WANT TO SOUND LIKE A
CONSPIRACY THEORIST, BUT THIS
DOCTOR IS ONE OF THE MOST HIGHLY
REGARDED PATHOLOGISTS IN THE
WORLD.
HE HAS TESTIFIED BEFORE ME,
WHICH IS HOW I MET HIM.
HE'S A SUPERSTAR.
IT IS MYSTERIOUS TO ME WHY THIS
IS COMING OUT NOW, 75 DAYS AFTER
HE MADE THE OBSERVATION I'M
PUTTING MY FINGERS ON MY NECK AS
HE DID HE MADE THE OBSERVATION
YOU JUST DESCRIBED IN THE CLIP
YOU RAN OF THESE MYSTERIOUS
BROKEN BONES WHICH HE SAYS COULD
NOT HAPPEN BY SUICIDE.
DAVID: BY THE WAY, WE'RE LOOKING
AT PHOTOS OF THIS.
>> RIGHT.
THE DNA TESTING HE'S LOOKING FOR
IS FOR THE LIGATURE, THE
INSTRUMENT THAT ACTUALLY CAUSED
THE DEATH.
I DON'T KNOW IF THAT'S MISSING,
BUT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS
IT.
HE SAYS HE'S DEMANDED DNA
TESTING TO SHOW IF IT SHOWS
ANOTHER HUMAN TOUCHED IT.
HE DOESN'T HAVE THOSE ANSWERS
YET.
>> THIS RAISES A REAL QUESTION.
THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT IS
INVOLVED.
THEY RUN THE PRISON.
THEY ARE DOING THE
INVESTIGATION.
WHY ARE THEY BEHAVING LIKE THIS?
>> I DON'T KNOW WHY THE FEDERAL
GOVERNMENT BEHAVES THE WAY IT
DOES.
I KNOW THE ATTORNEY GENERAL WAS
FURIOUS.
HE FIRED THE HEAD OF THE BUREAU
OF PRISONS.
HE REASSIGNED THE PERSON THAT
RUNS THIS PARTICULAR PERSON,
WHICH IS A JAIL, IT'S NOT A
PRISON, MEANING PEOPLE ARE HELD
THERE DURING TRIAL OR UNTIL
THEIR TRIAL.
IT IS NOT A LONG-TERM FACILITY.
AND THEORETICALLY THE FBI IS
LOOKING AT THIS.
THE FBI IS NOT INVESTIGATING
ITSELF.
IT'S INVESTIGATING ANOTHER PART
OF THE DOJ CALLED THE BUREAU OF
PRISONS.
>> JUDGE, THIS IS --
>> THAT BEGS THE QUESTION, WHY
ARE THEY DRAGGING THEIR FEET?
>> DON'T KNOW
>> THERE ARE TOO MANY
COINCIDENCES.
>> STEVE, TO THAT POINT,
COINCIDENCES IS EXACTLY RIGHT
BECAUSE JUDGE YOU MENTIONED AT
THE OUTSET THERE, MINE I
APPRECIATE THE DETAILS -- I MEAN
I APPRECIATE THE DETAILS, THE
INMATE SWITCH, THE CAMERAS NOT
WORKING WHEN THERE WERE SPECIFIC
INSTRUCTIONS TO BE MONITORED
24/7.
THAT'S WHERE I THINK THE ANSWER
LIES.
DID THE JAIL RUN OUT OF 9 VOLT
BATTERIES THAT NIGHT?
CAN THEY EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED
TO THE CAMERAS?
>> WE DON'T HAVE AN EXPLANATION
OF WHAT HAPPENED TO THE CAMERAS.
ONE OF THE CAMERAS IS IN THE
HALLWAY WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO
SHOW EVERYBODY THAT ENTERS AND
EXITS THE CELL.
>> YEAH.
>> THAT WASN'T WORKING.
THE OTHER CAMERA IS IN THE CELL
ITSELF WHICH IS A CONTINUOUS
MONITOR ON THE INMATE, AND THAT
WASN'T WORKING.
AND THEN THE PEOPLE THAT WERE
SUPPOSED TO BE LOOKING AT THESE
UNWORKING CAMERAS WERE ASLEEP.
DAVID: TOO MUCH, TOO MUCH.
>> JUDGE, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A
GREAT RIDDLE WRAPPED IN ENIGMA
SURROUNDE
SURROUND E
SURROUNDED BY A MYSTERY OR
SOMETHING LIKE THAT.
FORMER JUUL EXECUTIVE IS
ALLEGING THAT THE COMPANY SENT
OUT CONTAMINATED PODS AND FIRED
HIM AFTER THAT.
JUUL IS SAYING FOX BUSINESS THE
ALLEGATIONS CONCERNING SAFETY
ISSUES WITH JUUL PRODUCTS ARE
MERITLESS AND WE ALREADY
INVESTIGATED THE UNDERLYING
MANUFACTURING ISSUE AND
DETERMINED THE PRODUCT MET ALL
APPLICABLE SPECIFICATIONS.
THEY STRONGLY DENIES THE CHARGE
AND ADDS THE EXECUTIVE WAS FIRED
TO FAILING TO MEET LEADERSHIP
STANDARDS OF THE COMPANY NOT IN
RETALIATION
WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THIS ONE?
>> WHAT I MAKE OF IT IS THAT
THIS LAWSUIT IS THE LEAST OF
JUUL'S WORRIES.
THEIR BIGGEST WORRY IS THE FDA.
HE HAS TRIGGERED OR WILL TRIGGER
THE PLAINTIFF, AN FDA
INVESTIGATION BECAUSE OF THE
SKILLFUL NATURE OF THE
ALLEGATIONS HE MADE.
THE ALLEGATIONS HE MADE ARE
CHANGING PRODUCT AFTER THEY WERE
APPROVED BY THE FDA AND NOT
COMPLYING WITH FDA REGULATIONS
FOR PRODUCTS THAT WERE GRAND
FATHERED IN BEFORE CERTAIN OTHER
REGULATIONS CAME ABOUT.
STATED DIFFERENTLY, THIS WILL
TRIGGER AN FDA INVESTIGATION,
AND THEY WILL GET FAR DEEPER
THAN THE PLAINTIFF WOULD IN A
LAWSUIT.
DAVID: WE SHOULD MENTION BY THE
WAY BUZZ FEED WAS THE SOURCE FOR
THAT.
AGAIN, THEY WERE QUOTING THIS
GUY.
BUZZ FEED HAS KIND OF A BROKEN
TRACK RECORD IN TERMS OF --
>> IT IS A LEGITIMATE COMPLAINT
WHICH I READ, VERY
PROFESSIONALLY CRAFTED, IN FACT
SO PROFESSIONALLY CRAFTED IN MY
VIEW, IT WAS ACTUALLY WRITTEN TO
GET THE ATTENTION OF THE FDA,
MORE THAN THE ATTENTION OF A
FEDERAL JUDGE.
DAVID: JUDGE ANDREW NAPOLITANO
WHO HAS A FAIR DEGREE OF
SKEPTICISM ABOUT JEFFREY
