The two prison guards who failed to check on Jeffrey Epstein every 30 minutes were both 'working long overtime shifts at the understaffed jail' on the night he killed himself, sources claim

Jeffrey Epstein was found hanged in his prison cell at Metropolitan Correctional Center on Saturday morning

An autopsy conducted by the New York City Medical Examiner was taking place Sunday following his death

Source has claimed guards at the jail did not follow procedure and check inmates every 30 minutes overnight

One guard was working his fifth day of overtime, the second had been forced to work overtime, sources say

Suggestion his death was not recorded as the area he was detained does not have cameras pointing in cells

Epstein, 66, was briefly hospitalized on July 24 after being found semi-conscious on the floor of his jail cell

He had been removed from suicide watch by the time of his death, which has sparked widespread anger

AG Will Barr has ordered both the FBI and the Inspector General to open investigations into death

Suicide comes 24 hours after court documents were unsealed implicating powerful men in sex scandals

The two prison guards at Jeffrey Epstein's Manhattan jail who reportedly failed to follow procedure and check on prisoners every 30 minutes were both working long overtime shifts the night the pedophile took his own life, a source has revealed.

The former financier, 66, was found hanging in his prison cell shortly before 7am and was rushed to nearby New York Presbyterian-Lower Manhattan hospital

A prison official told The New York Times one of the guards was working his fifth straight day of overtime at the short staffed jailhouse while the second corrections officers was had been forced to work overtime.

It comes after a photo emerged of the pedophile's body being wheeled into hospital on a gurney. But it is unlikely his death was recorded as the area he was detained in does not have cameras pointing towards cells, TMZ reports.

Cameras are said to film the doors to each cell which would show anyone who entered or exited the cell, but they don not point inside.

This is the old Clinton excuse: “We were incompetent, but we’ll get it right in the future.”

You’d think they’d have had 2 guards sleeping in the cell with him considering the info Eppy had

Consider this too: With all his money, and the vagaries of the legal system, especially voire dire and the finest attorneys money can buy, why would Epstein want to off himself at this juncture? Why not wait until there's no hope left? He certainly didn't do it out of guilt.

Every 30 minutes leaves plenty of time anyway, doesn’t it?

Even if they did their job properly, there was plenty of time for Epstein to kill himself or play the erotic asphyxiation game and fail at it.

LOL! So the camera malfunction story has been replaced by the oh, well, they weren’t pointed at the cells anyway story.

Maybe...maybe not. Everything being reported is as likely to be BS as truth.

But let’s just say this is accurate. If you were Epstein and were looking to kill yourself and knowing that another failed attempt would really put you on the radar screen - just exactly how would you know that the guards were taking a break from their half-hour observations?

Noting also that “found hanging” does not establish hanging as the cause of death. Time will (maybe) tell...

Sleepy jailers. Yeah, that’s the ticket. Case closed.

But that still doesn’t explain how Epstein had access to anything he could fashion into a rope. I guess that little question will just get lost in the shuffle. This time there will be no Lt. Columbo around to say “Just one more thing.”

No, it was two new employees, Bill and Hillary.

A prison official told The New York Times one of the guards was working his fifth straight day of overtime at the short staffed jailhouse while the second corrections officers was had been forced to work overtime.

Clearly, the media (or someone) has an agenda to stress this point - making it easy for the people unwilling or unable to think to say “oh, see? That must be the reason!”

Somehow it reminds me of Hillary finding missing billing records on her dining room table. “Well, look there! The maid must have found them.”

Thing is... even if the guards were “working overtime,” the active word there is WORKING, which means they SHOULD HAVE BEEN DOING THEIR JOB. So... since they obviously WEREN’T doing their job, what WERE they doing? Taking a three hour bathroom break? That’s the question our worthless, biased media should be asking (and the one our Attorney General - you know, who finds this all very upsetting and suspicious) should be demanding.

How much money did the guards get and when will they pass away under mysterious circumstances?
