Feds subpoena up to 20 officers at NYC prison where Jeffrey Epstein killed himself

As many as 20 officers at the federal prison in Manhattan where Jeffrey Epstein killed himself have been subpoenaed.

Federal investigators sought the grand jury subpoenas as they try to piece together the events leading up to Epstein's suicide at the Metropolitan Correctional Center earlier this month, according to CNN.

Two guardsmen who were tasked with watching Epstein are of particular interest to investigators. The pair, who have been placed on leave, are suspected to have fallen asleep on the job when Epstein died.

 

Attorney General William Barr orderedthe FBI and the Justice Department’s inspector general to investigate both Epstein's Aug. 10 suicide, as well as his previous attempt on July 23, when he was found nearly unconscious on his cell floor with marks on his neck.

The 66-year-old millionaire, a convicted sex offender who was awaiting trial for child sex trafficking and conspiracy charges, was found unresponsive in his cell in the special housing unit after being taken off suicide watch. The New York City medical examiner's office officially ruled Epstein's death a suicide on Friday following an autopsy. He appeared to have tied a bedsheet to the top of a bunk bed and then moved toward the floor with enough force to break a bone in his neck.

It was a coincidence he had “special guards” that night. It was a coincidence the cameras weren’t functioning properly. It was a coincidence the cell mate was moved on Friday Evening. It was a coincidence that those special guards fell asleep on the job. All just coincidences.

There, fixed it - lots of doubts remain about how he died.

Feds to prison guards, "what do you know about Epstein"?

Prison guards to Feds, "Nothing."

Ok, thanks, and have a great day! Next!

Well, they got to make it look like something’s happening. Going too slow for me.

I’ve seen also mentioned (not in this article) that guards are not “cooperating” with investigations. This stinks pretty badly. Maybe getting hauled in via subpoena & then questioned under oath will convince the non-cooperators to be more forthcoming. I had to look it up, but they can take the 5th in a federal grand jury.

I think I would sooner testify against the Mafia than the Deep State who had Epstein killed.

The two guards who were asleep? They’ll get nailed HARD by F-troop. But Epstein sodomizing kids for a decade on a private island?

They didn’t even bother to search the place until after Epstein was dead.

Them not searching the place until Epstein was dead was by design, not accident.

“I’ve seen also mentioned (not in this article) that guards are not “cooperating” with investigations. This stinks pretty badly. “

It means they have a functioning brain. There is absolutely NOTHING they gain by talking to F-troop investigators. You cannot compel them to talk, even in front of a grand jury. The most you can do is fire them for not talking.

5th amendment,

And years after his crimes were exposed and he served that laughable jail sentence where he could leave all day, and had a private cellblock.

I would trust the Mafia before Deep State. At least Mafia has a "code" or at least will pretend to have some kind of honor but Deep State is pure evil and has the most power on earth. They are their own god and religion. They only answer to themselves. Deep State whacked Epstein and that is scarier than a Mafia hit.
