Right now, I'm going with:
-
Just killing him while in a Spanish jail and saying it was"suicide" wouldn't fly. JM had posted everything in jail was cool, relatively. It would also make the Spanish look real bad.
2 So, get a extradition, then do the "suicide" in Spain. A depression/hopelessness could stick for the normies in that scenario. Spanish wouldn't look that bad, and it would avoid a "suicide" in a US jail. Nobody would buy that after Epstein, and no European country would risk an extradition to a US jail going forward.
-
WRT deadman's switch, IC could have that neutralized, or are confident MSM can gaslight anything and keep it debunked.
-
There may be a possibility, as well, that JM had health issues and a death by natural causes with a deadma'sn switch release would be harder to debunk than a "suicide". A death by natural causes would also make the Spanish look bad, to some extant, and run the risk of blowing up the, "Prisoners are better off in a European lock up", narrative used to defend the no extradition to the US policy narrative virtue signal.
Can't see Spain wanting any part of this shitshow, so allow extradition, then look the other way as a "depression fed suicide" occurs and let the US handle any deadman switch fallout. It's aimed at them, anyway.
