FULL TITLE: Jeffrey Epstein's guards 'did NOT check his cell according to procedure' the night he hanged himself - as pictures show his body being wheeled into hospital amid outrage he has escaped justice

Guards at Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan jail did not follow procedure and check on prisoners every 30 minutes the night the pedophile took his own life, a source has revealed.

The former financier, 66, was found hanging in his prison cell shortly before 7am and was rushed to nearby New York Presbyterian-Lower Manhattan hospital where he was pronounced dead.

A photo has emerged of the pedophile's body being wheeled into hospital on a gurney.

The source told the news agency that two jail guards at the Metropolitan Correctional Center are required to make separate checks on all prisoners every 30 minutes, but that procedure was not followed overnight.

In addition, every 15 minutes guards are required to make another check on prisoners who are on suicide watch.

The decision to remove Epstein, who was possibly the most high-profile inmate in the federal jail system, from suicide watch has both baffled former wardens and veterans of the federal prison system alike.

A separate source revealed to DailyMail.com that Epstein actually told prison guards and fellow inmates that he believed someone had tried to kill him in the weeks before his death.

The insider, who had seen the disgraced financier on several occasions during his incarceration at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, also claims that the normally reserved Epstein seemed to be in good spirits.

'There was no indication that he might try to take his own life,' the source told DailyMail.com

'From what I saw, he was finally starting to adjust to prison. I think he was comforted by the rigidity of his new life.'

Yes, too many loose ends that need to be tidied up. I would not want to be one of those guards or their spouses and kids.

most people don’t understand the workings of a jail or prison. Easy to lie and distort or cover top mistakes.

Barr is responsible to the federal bureau of prisons and the FBI he and the doj shouldn’t investigate., I would put rudy on this. There are some national consultants who would do an objective job; people who do after action reports on riots, hostage situations, etc.

They’ll rule it autoerotic asphyxiation. He had on his orange jumpsuit so the only other fabric is his too short sheet. Torn into strips might make it long enough and strong enough to strangle him without much weight to hold up. About the only thing in the cell that would work to tie him up would be the sink. Then it’d be a matter of kneeling over and that’s that.

Not that I believe that’s what happened but it’s the only thing I can think they’d say happened. Hey, he was a sex fiend so that would put to rest any prison official saying he wasn’t suicidal.

You’d think the nation’s most high profile criminal awaiting trial would have eyeballs on him 24x7.

“By no means has he escaped justice...”
______________________________________

I was discussing his ‘suicide’ this morning with my beloved.

After I vented (no yelling, this time), I did admit that as of the time of Epstein’s death there was no punishment on earth that would match the eternal punishment he is enduring and will continue to endure.

Mind you, as a Christian, I really, truly would have preferred he come to accept Christ as his Savior.

Truly and seriously.

Sadly, since he (most likely) has not, there is nothing earthly that would measure in comparison to what he is experiencing at this time....

If it turns out that it’s not simply negligence on the guards part, they can most likely be charged with conspiracy.

I don’t question whether what happened was legit or not. If he was considered such a high profile inmate why was he imprisoned within the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in New York, listed as an administrative security facility, and not at a private prison which the state of New York funds for inmates? If he was such a high profile, then he needed to be segregated and that’s what those facilities are for.

Alas child molesters do not last long in the general population of a prison. And I believe that is where the problem exists. He was set up. I think they knew someone was going to get him. So they stretched him out like Fay Wray for king kong. But try and prove it.

“None for justice.”

Not sure if justice wasn’t served in a round about way.

Since the death happened over Friday night and early Saturday morning, maybe the guards were not in the best of shape when they came on watch or untouchable civil servants that decided not to show up for work and left newbies in over their heads

By no means has he escaped justice...

Epstein hasn't, but the Clintons have again, until they die.

“what would you call justice? After all he’s dead now.”

I would call “justice” Epstein dying (I don’t care how) soon after bringing down the Clintons, Bill Richardson, and every other miscreant by providing the tapes he made, and other evidence.

Then he can die.

It doesn’t take long to do it... by the lack of supervision for such a high profile inmate, who already attempted to take his life once... is rather suspect

Oops! He supposedly tried to kill hi,self and wasn’t on a suicide watch!
Oops! We were supposed to make sure there was nothing in his cell that he could kill himself with!
Oops! We were supposed to be monitoring him every 30 mins, but just conveniently forgot at the time he just decided to kill himself....even though he didn’t know we forgot!
Oops! The camera that was monitoring him just happened to be on the fritz and didn’t record him killing himself, or the first time he tried to kill himself.

Just co-incidence, like the 34 people that also knew Clinton and mysteriously died !

Justice comes in many forms. The salaciousness of the crimes the Epstein investigation and prosecution into the mainstream awareness. The media could not bury it. If the prosecution had been able to run it’s course it would have brought the corruption before those less awakened to the idea. Now all this deep state crap will once again be shrouded in darkness.

Actually I do get your point and agree. That said “move on” is not a strategy I embrace, it’s merely capitulation. If we capitulate the American experiment dies. I prefer to keep stirring.

The Clintonistas in the DoJ instructed them not to check. How is that for a conspiracy theory?

True, they didn’t see it.
But they know who told them not to see it.
