On the other hand, given that he had already been convicted of sexual abuse crimes and was contemplating spending the rest of his life in prison, there's plenty of motivation to kill himself. It's convenient for his pedo friends but there's no incontrovertible evidence that anyone else was involved.

He just happened to pick the exact right moment when the cameras were off and the guards were away?

Wasn't the prison like an overcrowded hellhole with way too little guards who didn't do their job and shitload of broken cameras anyway?

Not saying it couldn't have been a conspiracy but also learning about how shit that prison was makes one wonder if it could've just been that enabling him to do it

and typically people who are committing suicide aren't screaming bloody murder

There is absolutely motivation for him to have done it, and I don't necessarily disbelieve he was involved in his own death.

I firmly believe that somebody at the very least greased the required palms to make sure nobody would be around, otherwise the fact that there is no footage and no witnesses to to the death of someone so high-profile and supposedly well guarded becomes almost unbelievable.
