The revelation about the sulphuric acid sparked wild speculation on social media as to what Epstein needed it for, including to 'destroy evidence or even human remains' - despite there being no evidence of criminal use.
I think you may be confusing "wild speculation" with reason.
What would be the other conclusion you draw when you hear a sex trafficking pedophile who murdered and tortured his victims, ordered multiple drums of sulphuric acid to be delivered to his private island the same day a federal investigation was announced?
But further emails in the documents, dating back to 2013, suggest Epstein used sulphuric acid on the private island to purify water.
RO stands for Reverse Osmosis - a water purification system - while sulphuric acid is widely used in water treatment, specifically to soften, adjust pH, and enhance the efficiency of other chemicals during purification processes.
Oh well as long as that's what he'd always been ~~dissolving bodies in~~ using to purify water, nothing to see here. Just like there was nothing to see in the entire decade between first being arrested for sex trafficking a minor in 2008 and charged with "soliciting prostitution of a minor," continuing to do insane business transactions with powerful elites and banks who still won't release records of those transactions, and ending up dead in his jail cell with a federal record date of death listed the day before he actually died at the exact time security footage resets itself, and both guards take a meal break so there are no witnesses. Oh and 2 minutes are missing because glitches happen.
There's no need for wild speculation because there's always some perfectly logical explanation for why none of this is what it looks like.
