Of mahlers go to the polls today to vote in a controversial president ial runoff the turnout for the 1st round was poor and it appears theres little enthusiasm for the for the 2 main candidates the Central American country faces many challenges including widespread poverty and unemployment. Will make his in the us a calling for answers following the death in prison of disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein theres been widespread skepticism as to how he could have taken his own life in a high Security Federal prison just weeks after an apparent preview Suicide Attempt of state was jailed last month on Sex Trafficking charges that could have implicated numerous wealthy and powerful people f. B. I. Is now investigating the death. He had already been found injured in a cell a few weeks ago then the multimillionaire was found dead in the new york jail
where he was awaiting trial an apparent suicide. The convicted pedophile was facing up to 45 years behind bars on Sex Trafficking and conspiracy charges. Epstein a high powered investor was accused of having sexually abused girls as young as 14 at parties in his Palm Beach Villa where he reportedly passed the girls on to his guests what made the Case Explosive was the few notes he has connections to public figures including British RoyalPrince Andrew former u. S. President bill clinton as well as the sitting President Donald Trump charges were already brought against him in 2008 a controversial plea deal spared him time in prison. If i wasnt afraid to come forward sooner than we would be he would have done it to other girls i feel really guilty to list if the. Conviction for epstein could have meant the rest of his life in prison now many questions remain will the authorities further investigate the
Sex Trafficking allegations and will possible accomplices be held to account. And as we just heard questions as they mounting since the death about the future of the investigation and about the circumstances surrounding abstains death put a calm as man has been looking into that call hi thanks for joining me so what more can you tell us about the investigation and what might happen now in these questions about the future of the investigation what we know now is that his death his apparent suicide does not prevent this investigation from Going Forward and officials are are promising that they will continue to look into it in fact one of the attorneys thats involved in the case said yesterday that epstein was facing a conspiracy charge so that means that there could potentially be other people involved in these alleged crimes that means others could still be charged maybe for legs alleged Sex Trafficking for helping to recruit these under underage girls and so his his ring of a. Influence may continue to find more alleged victims as well what many want to
know is will this Investigation Lead to the indictment of any of these kind of big name figures that we know were were involved with epstein that knew him that would travel on his private planes for example as we saw in the piece it extends from fashion to business always to politics even president s and ex president s weed so the Legal Process it will continue this investigation will continue but of course it will be without the potential testimony of Jeffrey Epstein that could have been crucial and very useful if he had testified maybe in some kind of deal with prosecutors that could have led to more evidence against other people that may have been involved and given that people could be interconnected and thats really led to a lot of Conspiracy Theories surrounding this unfortunately thats right and you know this suicide has really angered a lot of people from the prosecutors involved here the victims the victims families all the way up to the attorney general william barr even the f. B. I. Taking the rare step now of launching an investigation into this alleged suicide
and so the circumstances surrounding it people really want to know what happened here i mean theres a few questions why did the jail take him off of Suicide Watch for example he had some marks around his neck a couple of weeks earlier that could have indicated the potential Suicide Attempts how was this allowed to happen by the jail itself mean this is a jail thats used to housing high Profile Suspects from paul mann afford to is currently in this jail. The the very high profile mexican criminal he was held there as well while he was awaiting his trial so this is a place that thats used to so housing high Profile Suspects its something that does make it seem a bit suspicious unfortunately as you mentioned while fear is now surrounding the death of epstein including some being treated by the president himself and we saw this on the u. S. President Donald Trumps twitter account and here he is retreating a rumor about the death saying that epstein had information on bill clinton and now hes dead so. Trying to link former president bill clinton who did in fact know abstain but has denied any other connection to him to do this death so theres no
evidence of that and this is coming from a comedian whos also trump supporter but you know weve seen the president retreating and kind of peddling in Conspiracy Theories the for well what about the alleged victims here i mean they must be really disappointed that this case is not going to go as planned to get disappointed i think is one word to put i mean this is the 2nd time now that epsteins victims alleged victims will not get their day in court and thats what many of them want to mean as we heard charges were filed in 2008 in florida that led to a plea deal so there was no trial no chance for any testimony or for the for the women involved here to have their say one accuser now who says she was raped by obscene while she was in high school she had this statement following his suicide she said we have to live with the scars of his actions for the rest of our lives while he will never face the consequences of the crimes that he committed congressman thanks very much for that update on some sport news

Has seen better days it actually has 1st division pedigree having played 6 seasons in germanys top league between 2002009 but then the club began to decline steadily ending up in the semi pro 4th division or regional leak as its called in germany but Hope Springs Eternal they say in fact the teams coach thinks this draw couldnt have been better for his squad. As a 4th Division Side knowing that youre not going to go too far in this comp you hope for a draw like this by and munich will pack the fans in. No wonder byron
is chock a block with stars not to mention the dizzying number of titles its won at home and internationally the bavarians biggest problem seems to be whether theyre going to make another big signing before the bundesliga season starts next week and they also want to make a better impression this season after losing to dortmund in the super cup. Its not about wanting a specific result but about the way we played. Not letting the rivals have the opportunity to win the game at all. Will be given and 6 we need to dominate and control a match expected of us. The last time cutbush actually beat byron was more than 10 years ago and its current squad is full of unknowns yet it has proven to be quite resilient in recent german cups having only bowed out the last 2 seasons against 1st Division Sides on penalty shots. Just to tell
