There is another option - multiple stories written by people attempting suicide by jumping or hanging that I have read say you get a profound sense of regret at trying to kill yourself when you pass the point of no return. So even if it was suicide Epstein could still have been struggling for life.
That CBS News chose such an ambiguous headline, allowing that it might have been Epstein shrieking, is the stuff institutional regrets are made of.
