    So, I'm sure everyone has seen the news on the autopsy where he had his Hyoid bone broken - it's a horsehoe like bone in your throat. It is slightly more often broken in strangulation than in hangings, and of course being elderly increases the risk of it breaking. So his death has been ruled a suicide.

    Ignoring all the conspiratory stuff for a moment, and just sticking to the facts:

    Consider this:
    The method of hanging in a prison is almost always off a very low position - like a bedpost, toilet, or doorknob in some cases, and they lean into it, using their body weight to suffocate/go unconscious. Generally there is nothing to tie to that could ever result in a drop. Now the hyoid seems quite a bit more suspicious. It can often break in a hanging (something like - 35% of the time), but hangings usually involve some kind of a drop that makes that more likely - except in prison.

    Now back to the regularly programmed conspiratory channel, out of all the known suspects, I'd tend to believe royal involvement before any else. They don't tolerate controversy, not even for a minute. Their continued survival is entirely upon public perception in the UK.

    Did Robin Williams break his hyoid bone? I think Anthony Bourdain also used a similar method.

    ...and Bourdain wrote a novel titled Bone in the Throat. Coincidence?

    I don't think the info on Williams is that detailed, but in a cursory search it doesn't seem like it (moderately in depth report on his autopsy) - the question is would it have been reported in the media if it had, it's not like anyone has access to his autopsy, certainly impossible to find "intact hyroid" in any report because the media doesn't publish whats "right" with any case. At any rate, it is unlikely, and not reported, so probably not.

    ^^ I don't think they have to stop "all" of them. A few gun runs by an A-10 would probably persuade the survivors to unass the area very quickly.

    I worked in a jail for a short time early in my career. One guy I remember got a solid "A" for effort but failed anyway. He had torn his sheet and fashioned a rope of sorts out of the pieces. Tied it around his neck. Asked the deputy at the desk to come out of his cell for a shower or something. Deputy opened the door and the guy came out of his upper level cell, tied the sheet around the handrail and jumped over the side. Unfortunately for him, the sheet either ripped or came loose as soon as his weight hit it and he fell to floor breaking both legs among other injuries. He was a mess.

    Yeah, pretty sure the royals least like this press more than any they've ever had in the last century or two.
