Forensic pathologist mentioned in the article
Dr. Michael Baden is a well-respected forensic pathologist hired by Jeffrey Epstein's brother and estate to conduct an independent autopsy review. Baden has publicly challenged the official suicide determination in Epstein's death, claiming autopsy findings—including a broken hyoid bone and a thin neck wound inconsistent with a bedsheet ligature—are more consistent with homicidal strangulation. Baden observed Epstein's autopsy and has continued to dispute the New York City Medical Examiner's suicide ruling as recently as February 2026. He is not a defendant, victim, or subject of criminal accountability in the Epstein case; rather, he is a forensic expert who examined evidence related to Epstein's death and publicly contested official conclusions.
