Jeffrey Epstein was left alone in his jail cell with a surplus of bed linens the night he killed himself. Nearly all the surveillance cameras on his unit didn’t record. One worker was on duty for 24 hours straight. And, despite his high profile and a suicide attempt two weeks earlier, he wasn’t checked on regularly as required.
The Justice Department’s watchdog said Tuesday that a “combination of negligence, misconduct and outright job performance failures” by the federal Bureau of Prisons and workers at the New York City jail enabled the wealthy financier to take his own life in August 2019, finding no evidence of foul play.
Inspector General Michael Horowitz blamed numerous factors for Epstein’s death, including the jail’s failure to assign him a cellmate and overworked guards who lied on logs after failing to make regular checks. Had the guards done so, Horowitz said, they would’ve found Epstein had excess linens, which he used in his suicide.

Horowitz’s investigation, the last of several official inquiries into Epstein’s death, echoed previous findings that some members of the jail staff involved in guarding Epstein were overworked. He identified 13 employees with performance failures and recommended possible criminal charges against four workers. Only the two workers assigned to guard Epstein the night he died were charged, avoiding jail time in a plea deal after admitting to falsifying logs.

Few of the cameras in the area where Epstein was housed were making recordings of the images they captured due to a mechanical failure July 29. The prison had contracted for a camera system upgrade three years before his death, but it had not been completed, in part due to serious staffing shortages.

The guards-what color were they?
Whitewash. The corruption is amazing.
and did the pockets of those jailers jingle the next day???
The Justice Department. Yeah, sure, totally credible.
...and it waswn’t Fort Marcy Park.
Check the guards financials
Misconduct Looking the other way by federal jail guards led to Jeffrey Epstein’s suicide MURDER, Justice Department watchdog says,
I fixed it.
“He identified 13 employees with performance failures and recommended possible criminal charges against four workers.”
POSSIBLE criminal charges? I doubt they will get any serious penalties due to preventing the revelation of dirty laundry of important people.
Nope. To liberals, you can never have too much Lenin!
This would make an interesting project for a brave statistician.
What’s the chance of Epstein being given too many bed linens
AND
surveillance cameras on his unit not working
AND
a worker on duty for 24 hours straight
AND
no regular cell checks.
The chance of any one of them accidentally happening might be rather high. But what’s the chance of all four of them accidentally happening at the same time? I’d say that was pretty darn low.
Thank heaven the Ass Press came out with the official narrative! Now we know it isn't true.
More like their lapdog..
No one answered my question. Let’s just say the guards were from a protected class.
“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.
