Conspiracy theories about the suicide of Jeffrey Epstein, an ultra-rich financier and sex offender with ties to some of the world's most influential figures, have continued to circulate since his death. Popular but baseless claims, which were spread at the highest levels of government, posited that Bill and Hillary Clinton were behind his death. Playing on one of the most persistent of internet conspiracy theories known as Clinton Body Bags -- a rumor positing that former president Bill Clinton and former secretary of state Hillary Clinton have snuffed out dozens of people who possessed damaging information about them -- the website Patriot Post circulated a meme labeled as Humor that insinuated the Clintons knew about Epstein's death before it was disclosed: Although the meme may have circulated online without this context, it originated on a page labeled humor and thus should not be viewed as a statement of fact.
