iar with operations at the
jail say he was taken off the
watch after about a week and
put back in a high-security
housing unit where he was
less closely monitored, but
still supposed to be checked
on every 30 minutes.
Attorney General Wil-
liam Barr says officials have
uncovered “serious irregu-
larities” at the jail. The FBI
and the Justice Department’s
inspector general are both
investigating Epstein’s death.
Jail guards on duty the
night of Epstein’s death
are suspected of falsify-
ing log entries to show they
were checking on inmates
every half-hour as required,
according to several people
familiar with the matter.
A guard in Epstein’s unit
was working a fifth straight
day of overtime and another
guard was working manda-
tory overtime, the people
said. They spoke on condi-
tion of anonymity because
they lacked authoriza-
tion to publicly discuss the
investigation.
U.S. District Judge Rich-
ard Berman, who is in charge
of the criminal case against
Epstein, asked the jail’s war-
den this week for answers
about the earlier episode,
writing in a letter Monday
that it had “never been defin-
itively explained.”
The warden replied that
an internal investigation
was completed but that he
couldn’t provide informa-
tion because the findings
were being incorporated
into investigations into
Epstein’s death.
