'If, hypothetically, the hyoid bone is broken, that would generally raise questions about strangulation'
There were reportedly multiple bones broken in Jeffrey Epstein's neck, an autopsy found, including one called the hyoid, which sometimes breaks during strangulation in homicides., the office of New York City's Chief Medical Examiner Barbara Sampson completed an autopsy of Epstein's body Sunday, but listed the cause of death as pending.
Epstein, 66, was a wealthy, well-connected financier indicted on sex trafficking charges over the alleged abuse of multiple minors for several years. While awaiting trial at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan,He had already been found in his cell two weeks previously barely conscious and with marks on his neck in what appeared to be a suicide attempt. He was placed on suicide watch for several days before being taken off, deemed no longer to be a threat to himself.
The hyoid bone is U-shaped and sits at the front of the neck between the lower jaw and the voice box."The primary function of the hyoid bone is to serve as an anchoring structure for the tongue. It has no articulation with other bones," states"If, hypothetically, the hyoid bone is broken, that would generally raise questions about strangulation, but it is not definitive and does not exclude suicidal hanging," Jonathan L.
