I Suspect There Is More To This Story

Yesterday The New York Post reported that the two guards responsible for guarding Jeffrey Epstein have admitted that they falsified records detailing their activities during the time that they were supposed to be checking on him.

The article reports:

Tova Noel and Michael Thomas admitted that they “willfully and knowingly” lied on forms stating that they’d made the required rounds checking on inmates the night of Epstein’s August 2019 suicide

Prosecutors said the guards were sleeping and surfing the web when they should have been monitoring the maximum security federal prisoner, who had recently been on suicide watch at the Metropolitan Correctional Center.

Under a plea deal announced Friday, they will avoid jail time in connection with their misconduct.

Instead, the disgraced duo will be required to complete 100 hours of community service and cooperate with a federal probe, according to the agreement, which must be approved by a judge.

This is a very odd story. There are a lot of twist and turns in this saga–why was Jeffrey Epstein left alone in his cell when he was supposedly a suicide risk? Why have all of the surveillance tapes from the time of death mysteriously disappeared? Isn’t it interesting that the two prison guards have avoided jail time? I hate to be cynical, but someone should take a good look at their bank accounts in recent years to see if there were any strange deposits.
