    As Jeffrey Epstein Died Prison Guards Were Online Shopping and Sleeping
    Tom Hays, Larry Neumeister, Michael Balsamo

    Two jail guards responsible for monitoring Jeffrey Epstein the night he killed himself were sleeping and browsing the internet instead, according to an indictment released Tuesday charging the guards with lying on prison records to cover themselves. The grand jury indictment provides a damning glimpse of safety lapses inside a high-security unit at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, where Epstein had been awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges.

    “The defendants had a duty to ensure the safety and security of federal inmates in their care at the Metropolitan Correctional Center,” U.S. Attorney Geoffrey S. Berman said. “Instead, they repeatedly failed to conduct mandated checks on inmates, and lied on official forms to hide their dereliction.” Instead of making required rounds every 30 minutes, guards Tova Noel and Michael Thomas sat at their desks just 15 feet from Epstein’s cell, shopped online for furniture and motorcycles, and walked around the unit’s common area, the indictment said. During one two-hour period, it said, both appeared to have been asleep.

    Both correctional officers pleaded not guilty Tuesday afternoon and were released on $100,000 bond. The defendants, hiding their faces with clothing, left the courthouse in separate cars waiting for them in the shadow of the jail where they had worked and Epstein died.

    Epstein’s death was a major embarrassment for the U.S. Bureau of Prisons. The cell where he died was in a high-security unit, famous for having held terrorists and drug cartel kingpins. Epstein’s death, though, revealed the jail was suffering from problems including chronic staffing shortages that lead to mandatory overtime for guards day after day and other staff being pressed into service as correctional officers.

    Attorney General William Barr had previously said investigators found “serious irregularities” at the jail.

    Epstein had been placed on suicide watch after he was found July 23 on the floor of his cell with a strip of bedsheet around his neck, according to the indictment. After 24 hours, he was transferred to the facility’s hospital wing for a psychological observation, where he remained under close watch. Epstein was moved back to a regular cell July 30 where he was required to have a cellmate, but he was left with none after his cellmate was transferred out of the MCC on Aug. 9, the day before his death, the indictment said. The indictment said that Epstein was found unresponsive in his cell when the guards went to deliver breakfast. Noel confessed to a supervisor then that they hadn’t done either their 3 a.m. or 5 a.m. rounds, according to the indictment.

    Marc Fernich, a lawyer for Epstein, said: “It would be a shame if minor scapegoats — classic low-hanging fruit, the softest targets — were made to take the fall for this tragedy on what amounts to a coverup theory. Unless it prompts genuine self-reflection from all major participants and stakeholders in our criminal justice system and those who cover it, Mr. Epstein’s death in federal custody — senseless and sad as it is — will have been entirely for naught.”

    Falsification of records has been a problem throughout the federal prison system. Sawyer, who was named director of the Bureau of Prisons after Epstein’s death, disclosed in an internal memo earlier this month that a review of operations across the agency found some staff members failed to perform required rounds and inmate counts but logged that they had done so anyway. A copy of the memo was obtained by the AP.

    Epstein’s death ended the possibility of a trial that would have involved prominent figures and sparked widespread anger that he wouldn’t have to answer for the allegations. He had pleaded not guilty and was preparing to argue that he could not be charged because of a 2008 deal he made to avoid federal prosecution on similar allegations.

    The city’s medical examiner ruled Epstein’s death a suicide. Kathleen Hawk Sawyer, the new director of the Federal Bureau of Prisons, told the Senate Judiciary Committee on Tuesday there is “no evidence to suggest” anything other than suicide.

    Broham, even though I technically do not have criminal record I have been in jail twice and prison and s a whole other level. Last time I was jail I had a psychotic break and was super physically fit so I got in a fight with a child molester and tried to kill him so they moved to the red suit tier where they were temporarily housing murderers on their way to prison and I threatened to kill a nigger murderer in the yard by stabbing him in the neck with a sharpened pencil. Long story short child molesters are marked men are in jail and prison and the inmates and guards are both against them. The guards tried to setup a teenage child molester to get a beat down from me but I did not do it because the dude was only 17 years old. I am 99 percent sure it was ill will in the Epstein case.

    Nope, I just edited my post to be more lucid by getting rid of errors. Bottom line : I have experience being incarcerated and to be a child molester while incarcerated is the same thing as wearing a sign on your back saying " I am a pedophile please kill me."

    I'm aware of that, but this case was high profile and to expose a pedophile ring that would have done much more good with him alive. The guards not doing their job isn't just covering inmates, it's dirty pedo protection.
