GUN VIOLENCE IN AMERICA: FOR WHO THE BELL TOLLS NEXT.

Just five people shy of Sandy Hook elementary school mass shooting incident that claimed 26 lives, the Uvalde Texas Robb elementary school mass shooting at 21 victims, now ranks among the highest grossing gun carnage in America. It is sad that such frequent blood spilling has tragically become part of our culture as a society. May the souls of the killed now rest.

25th AMENDMENT: ITS NOW ALL CRICKET.

Madam Speaker Nancy Pelosi once questioned former President Donald John Trump's fitness to remain in office due to what she claimed was his declining mental capacity. Does anyone know what Madam Speaker presently thinks about the incontrovertible case which America is now saddled with? Just curious!

WHO WILL REBUILD UKRAINE?

The West should convert frozen Russian assets, both state's and oligarchs' owned, into a full seizure and set them aside for the future rebuilding of Ukraine. Like the Marshal Plan, call it the Putin Plan.

A HERO IS BORN.

I am staying put. I will not run away and abandon my people. The fight is here in Ukraine. What I need are weapons and ammunitions, not a ride out of town like former Afghanistan President Ashraf Ghani - President Volodymyr Zelensky.

#MeToo MOVEMENT: A BAD NEWS GONE CRAZY.

"To all the women who testified, we may have different truth, but I have a great remorse for all of you. I have great remorse for all of the men and women going through this crisis right now in our country. You know, the movement started basically with me, and I think what happened, you know, I was the first example, and now there are thousands of men who are being accused and a regeneration of things that I think none of us understood. I’m not going to say these aren’t great people. I had wonderful times with these people. I’m just genuinely confused. Men are confused about this issue.

RON DELLUMS: UNAPOLOGETICALLY RADICAL.

"If it’s radical to oppose the insanity and cruelty of the Vietnam War, if it’s radical to oppose racism and sexism and all other forms of oppression, if it’s radical to want to alleviate poverty, hunger, disease, homelessness, and other forms of human misery, then I’m proud to be called a radical.” - Ron Vernie Dellums.


WHAT REALLY MATTERS IN LIFE - STEVE JOBS

“I reached the pinnacle of success in the business world. In others’ eyes, my life is an epitome of success. However, aside from work, I have little joy. Non-stop pursuing of wealth will only turn a person into a twisted being, just like me. God gave us the senses to let us feel the love in everyone’s heart, not the illusions brought about by wealth. Memories precipitated by love is the only true riches which will follow you, accompany you, giving you strength and light to go on. The most expensive bed in the world is the sick bed. You can employ someone to drive the car for you, make money for you but you cannot have someone to bear sickness for you. Material things lost can be found. But there is one thing that can never be found when it is lost – Life. Treasure Love for your family, love for your spouse, love for your friends. Treat yourself well. Cherish others.” - SJ

EVIL CANNOT BE TRULY DESTROYED.

JEFFREY EPSTEIN DESERVES JUSTICE: A MOLESTER'S LIFE MATTER TOO.

ICHEOKU says America is currently enmeshed in near paralysis of the coronavirus and the George Floyd's death triggered Black Lives Matter's mayhem, with every other thing else now pushed to the back burner. But the country shouldn't be so tunnel visioned as not to see other things begging for attention within the wider  peripheral vision. Simply put, there are so many things needing attention which should be attended to, notwithstanding the focus on the coronavirus and the Black Lives Matter's vandalism which is now approaching a level of domestic terrorism. 

Like a person, the country should be able to walk and chew gum simultaneously. It is called multi tasking and it is doable and should be done. Too much attention is being devoted to the coronavirus that so many other things are suffering from neglect. Among some of the many things is an economy on a back heel as well as so many unfinished businesses of law enforcement.  Remedying an obvious injustice where its continuing delay will amount to condoning a grave injustice, is one such area that should not shelter in place because the longer the injustice persists the longer it is justice denied its victims and justice denied one is justice denied all. 

The death of Jeffrey Epstein inside Manhattan Correctional Center New York City, which many people believe was an extra judicial hit job and not a suicide as the government would want the people to believe, is one such matter that should not be swept under the carpet of the coronavirus. It needs to be exhaustively looked into by an outside investigator despite the fact that coronavirus has nearly rendered everything comatose. People seem to have moved on from the Jeffrey Epstein's saga, probably saying to themselves that since Jeffrey Epstein is dead, what is the point still dwelling on how he died or wasting resources looking into it. 

But even the dead deserves justice and in the interest of the living, finding out how the dead died is imperative in order to prevent any such future happenstance. Therefore, it is important that dead Jeffrey Epstein gets his own deserved justice, which means conclusively resolving the questions surrounding his death in order to ensure that he was not a victim of foul play and was not unjustly murdered. So, until his death is conclusively investigated by an outside third party investigator, the ruling of it as a suicide will continue to be seen as a cover up by the government and it will only exacerbate the distrust which many people have in government. 

The manner of his death also raises the question whether America still have the moral high ground to admonish other countries over their extra judicial killings. If such a high profile person who was merely awaiting trial could so easily die in circumstances which suggests strangulation, what other evidence is needed before adding America in the list of rogue States which kill her citizens. If the safety of such a well known and well connected wealthy individual, who partied, wined and dined with presidents, top politicians, celebrities and royals, could not be guaranteed in the custody of the American government, who else is safe? This begs the question has America now morphed into a nation which kills her citizens without according them their due process right of equal protection under the law? 

The need to investigate what happened to Jeffrey Epstein is not necessarily for the benefit of  Jefrey Epstein because Jeffrey Epstein is dead and the dead have no rights anymore. It is rather for the benefit of the living, how to protect the living from suffering a similar fate while in government's detention, including those who are currently confined and those who might run afoul of the law in the future and find themselves confined by the government. What assurances and guarantees will these detainees and potential detainees have that they will not meet with the same fate which befell Jeffrey Epstein. 

These are the people, for whose protection, the rumination about what happened to Jeffrey Epstein is being made and not a man who is gone and no longer remembered what happened to him, assuming he ever knew what happened to him. Therefore in the interest of the living, what killed Jeffrey Epstein should be investigated in order to assure the living Americans that the same thing will not kill them. It is for those who the bell still tolls and not for he who it has already tolled. 

The government therefore has an obligation to the American public as well as the world at large to get to the bottom of Jeffrey Epstein's death mystery scandal. The government needs to clear its name and assure everyone that they were not involved in anyway in orchestrating and executing Jeffrey Epstein's sudden death by "suicide". The scandal is oozing of putridity and has touched everything America stands for, including her defense of the sanctity of human life, due process, human rights, right to fair trial, equal protection, dignity of life and above all, the need to avoid extra judicial murders by the State. 

How can America sincerely still preach these tenets of civilized behaviors to other countries while still carrying the burden of Jeffrey Epstein's mystery death on its shoulders. How can America, with a boldface, still chastise North Korea for causing Otto Wambier's death when the circumstances surrounding the death of Jeffrey Epstein is still shrouded in doubt and satisfactorily unresolved. How is it distinguishable from Saudi Arabia and Jamal Khashoggi? What then distinguishes America from those murderous regimes around the world if Jeffrey Epstein could not be guaranteed his safety inside an American high security detention facility. It does not make sense and it needs to be investigated to the fullest extent possible in order to remove every shadow of doubt over how he died. 

ICHEOKU says even if Jeffrey Epstein was a monster, was he not still a United States of American citizen, may be a Citizen Monster, for who certain inalienable rights still applied to. Was he not entitled to due process right of equal protection under the law and the right to a fair trial, the opportunity to confront his accusers and mount his defense against whatever charges or crimes he was accused of. Even mass murderers still have their day in court and Jeffrey Epstein did not kill anybody and so, deserved and should have had his day in court. 

He should have been allowed to face his accusers and had the opportunity to defend himself, and if convicted by a jury of his peers or the judge, then be punished accordingly. But no, he was denied all these rights because some more powerful people considered him a threat who could unmask their life of sleaze and made a determination that he was unworthy to live and undeserving of such rights and permanently made him a no longer available witness. 

The due process clause is not only limited to the Mother Theresa(s) of America, no, it also avails the Jeffrey Epstein(s) of America. Every society including America has their own less desirable elements; their good, their bad and their ugly. America is a macrocosm of various characters, some good and some bad, the reason the criminal justice system exists to hold the bad ones accountable. What Jeffrey Epstein was accused of and for which he was being held in detention, although hideous, was not a death sentence offense even if he were to be convicted. 

But serving as a devil's advocate, even if it was a death penalty offense which it is not, there is still a required process to be followed before getting to his guilty. He was supposed to be presumed innocent until proved guilty under the American jurisprudence. So why kill him before he could even face his accusers in court and to make matters worse, insult everybody's intelligence by passing off his death as a suicide. 

What happened to Jeffrey Epstein meets every description of extra judicial murder and it calls for a satisfactory investigation. Unless there is an authority higher than the president, President Donald John Trump should understand that the murder of Jeffrey Epstein took place under his watch and he must turn every rock over to unearth those who were behind it. Those who ordered Jeffrey Epstein killed and those who were privy to the conspiracy to have him killed as well as those enforcers who actually strangled him need to be unmasked and brought to justice. 

CBS's 60 Minutes news program of January 26th, 2020 ran an award winning expose` on the death of Jeffrey Epstein and it left nobody in doubt that Jeffrey Epstein was in fact a victim of foul play. He was murdered. It was beyond every shadow of doubt as backed by evidence inside his cell as well as other circumstantial evidence outside. The news program was the stuff Pulitzer Prize is meant for and hopefully CBS will receive the award for their in-depth analysis, backed with pictorial evidence of Jeffrey Epstein's murder. From the broadcast, it was easily discernible that Jeffrey Epstein did not commit suicide. There were so many issues raised in the program which  made it impossible to still believe the government's narrative that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself because he did not. 

It will require the suspension of disbelief and disconnection of logical deduction to, after watching the CBS 60 Minutes program, still accept that he killed himself. The camera which was directly in front of his cell gate was the only camera which "conveniently" malfunctioned out of the many cameras in his cell block, the very night he "took" his own life. How convenient was that. What are the odds, except that the government want us to believe them because they said so, thinking that our brain logical lobes are malfunctioning. It also did not make sense that Jeffrey Epstein chose to fashion a noose from his bedsheet when a telephone cord, an electric shaver's charging cord, an aluminum string and a ball point pen were all there in his cell and easily handy to do the job. 

But we must believe the government's story that Jeffrey Epstein made a noose from ripped bedsheet and hung himself with it and magically left no blood or DNA stain on the noose despite evidence of bloodied ligature marks on his neck. The fact that the "noose" was wider than the ligature mark is also another pointer that there are things requiring further explanation which only an outside investigator could unravel.  But the government wants American people and the world to ignore this unexplained mystery surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death and accept it as a suicide. 

The government also wants us to ignore the fact that the ligature mark was in the middle of Jeffrey Epstein's neck and far below his jaw line. This is contrary to where a noose would have ordinarily left its mark were it a suicide, very closely hugging the neck area closest to the jaw line. It is apparent that a garrote was used to strangle Jeffrey Epstein as a noose would not leave such a deep bloody impression on his neck. 

Death by suicide normally leaves the victim puffy around the neck, eyes, face and general head area. Sometimes the victim also vomits their tongue and left it dangling from their mouth. They also sometimes experience bowel movement. But the cadaver of Jeffrey Epstein did not suggest that any of these things occurred, yet the government wants the world to believe that Jeffrey Epstein suddenly got tired of waiting for his trial to begin and instantly ended his life. Even the Ponzi scheme chief Bob Maddoff is still doing his time, 150 years behind bars; so why couldn't Jeffrey Epstein at least wait to be first convicted and sentenced to gazillion number of years behind bars before killing himself. Good lawyers could spring accused persons out of such logjams and instances abound to that effect and he too could easily have been found not guilty as well. So why the rush to end it. 

Why was his body quickly removed from the crime scene before the police could arrive and conduct full investigation of the crime scene. When the facility's guards "supposedly" discovered his body, did they call 911 as is required with every emergency. If they did, who dispatched the EMT that took his body away and contaminated the crime scene before the police could arrive. Why the rush to take the dead body away after finding no pulse and not wait for the police to first conduct their preliminary investigation of the crime scene. He was already dead, DOA, so why the rush to remove his body from the cell. Were photographs taken of his body hanging on the noose? What position was his body in when he was first discovered? Was he sitting, standing, dangling or slouched. 

These are some of the many unanswered questions surrounding the death of Jeffrey Epstein which a third party outside investigator should try and answer. Who wanted Jeffrey Epstein dead and who were the henchmen that were used in carrying out his execution. Did they come from outside the detention facility or were fellow detainees used to do the dirty job. Was the camera intentionally made to malfunction. Did the security officers on duty take lie detector test as to what they know about his death. 

American people are concerned and the only way to array their fear and reassure them that the government has no hand in the killing of Jeffrey Epstein is to appoint an outside investigator immediately to conduct a detailed forensic investigation into Jeffrey Epstein's death. Anything short of this will be seen as aiding and abetting the Jeffrey Epstein's murder cover up. It is a shame and it does not leave America in a positive light that a prisoner in her custody was killed. Jeffrey Epstein deserves justice. #InvestigateJeffreyEpstein'sDeath
