In Short-Staffed Jail, Epstein Was Left Alone for Hours; Guard Was Substitute
NY Times ^

One of the two people guarding Jeffrey Epstein when he apparently hanged himself in a federal jail cell was not a full-fledged correctional officer, and neither guard had checked on Mr. Epstein for several hours before he was discovered, prison and law-enforcement officials said.

Those details emerged on Monday as Attorney General William P. Barr sharply criticized the management of the federal jail in Manhattan where Mr. Epstein, who was accused of sexually abusing dozens of teenage girls, was found dead on Saturday morning.

“We are now learning of serious irregularities at this facility that are deeply concerning and demand a thorough investigation,” said Mr. Barr, who, as the country’s top law enforcement official, is responsible for federal prisons.

“We will get to the bottom of what happened,” he added. “There will be accountability.”

And the coverup begins. This isn’t the fault of overtime schedules, or incompetence, this is a corrupt Deepstate cleaning up loose ends.

High security jail/holding cells. If it is this bad here, what happens in regular jails?

“There will be accountability.”

I’m so cynical and jaded that I take that as “Someone will have to appear to take the fall for this.”

One of the most important prisoners the feds have housed since John Gotti and he was monitored like a run of the mill car thief.

This whole thing stinks to high heaven.

I’m really taken aback by all this antisemitism.
Y’all DO know that Epstein was Jewish, right?

neither guard had checked on Mr. Epstein for several hours before he was discovered

In other words: Both Guards sttod watch while he was Murdered in his Cell by James Comey himself.

Where’s the anti-semitism of which you speak? In the comments above your post? Or in the NY Times article, of which I was only able to get a glance before the paywall kicked in?

This could domino to the very top and I am not necessarily against it. Frankly I’m flabbergasted. The prison should be closed to protect prisoner safety. I’m still in shock really.

I guess he hadn't yet attended the advanced class on "checking on the prisoners".

I mean this is only the most high-profile prisoner in the entire United States of America and they put in the second stringers to guard him.

OK.

I’m former NM Governor Bill Richardson, here on the right with Bill. You like my name? Sounds totally innocuous, doesn’t it? Totally un-molestery. Plus I look totally Mexican —I milk that A LOT..! But I’m greeeat pals with Jeff Epstein, whose Rape Ranch is in my state. In a lot of ways I’m similar to him, though most people don’t know that. The other way we’re the same is I like raping little girls. Like Jeff, I, too, raped sex slave Virginia Giuffre. Did you know I was US Ambassador to the United Nations and Bill’s Secretary of Commerce..? Plus I do negotiation stuff about North Korea. I’m YUGE, heh-heh..!

Isn’t it fun watching them throw stuff up against the wall, hoping one of their silly explanations will stick?

99% of the people - on BOTH sides know this is complete BS ... and they don’t even seem to care, but keep feeding us nonsense.
