> Dr. Michael Baden, one of the world’s leading forensic pathologists, viewed Jeffrey Epstein’s body and was present at the autopsy, which was held the day after Epstein was found dead at the notorious Metropolitan Correctional Center in downtown Manhattan.
It looks like he was at least present at the autopsy
Presumably they both care about careers and reputation.
(... and thanks to the power of conspiracy theories, he's now got a cemented reputation forever among some circles).
Epsiein's family pathologist only gets paid as long as he's involved in the investigation. If he said "Yep, looks like a suicide", the family would have no further use for him. But if he discovers some conspiracy that will take an indefinite amount of time to deal with, he keeps collecting paychecks. Also, this fellow seems to thrive on fame, so even more incentive to find something juicy.
Naive.
Not that I think there's any sort of attempts at influencing the story here...
Either: They want the truth or they want to distort the truth.
In the first case: Why don't they trust the state?
In the second: Why do they want to falsely make it to look like a murder?
