Update: The warden of the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) where Jeffrey Epstein died has been temporarily reassigned to the Bureau’s Northeast Regional Office by Attorney General William Barr, according to a Tuesday statement by the Justice Department. Meanwhile, two prison employees who had been assigned to Epstein’s unit have been placed on administrative leave pending ongoing investigations, according to CNBC.
Department of Justice spokewoman Kerri Kupec, in a prepared statement said, “Today, the Attorney General directed the Bureau of Prisons to temporarily assign the warden at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York to the Bureau’s Northeast Regional Office pending the outcome of the FBI and OIG investigations into the apparent suicide of Jeffrey Epstein, a former MCC inmate.”
“FCI Otisville Warden James Petrucci has been named Acting Warden of the MCC New York. The Bureau of Prisons also placed on administrative leave two MCC staff assigned to Mr. Epstein’s unit pending the outcome of the investigations. Additional actions may be taken as the circumstances warrant.” -CNBC
The morning of Jeffrey Epstein’s death, “shouting and shrieking” could be heard from his jail cell, according to CBS News - while guards attempting to revive him were saying “breathe, Epstein, breathe.”
Epstein, who was reportedly in ‘good spirits’ recently - meeting with his lawyers for up to 12 hours a day to discuss his case - was found hanging in his Lower Manhattan jail cell with a bedsheet around his neck, which was reportedly secured to the top of a bunk bed, according to the New York Post.
On Monday, Attorney General William Barr said that the Epstein case “was personally important to him,” and that the prison had “serious irregularities.”
Notably, the staff at MCC reportedly violated prison protocol by failing to check on the high-profile inmate every 30 minutes, according to the Washington Post. Epstein, whose defense attorneys successfully lobbied for him to be taken off suicide watch about a week before he was found dead, was also supposed to have had a cellmate.
…he also should have had a cellmate, according to the person familiar with the matter and union officials representing facility employees.
But a person who had been assigned to share a cell with Epstein was transferred on Friday, and — for reasons that investigators are still exploring — he did not receive a new cellmate. -Washington Post
In a rare show of bipartisanship, the House Judiciary Committee has sent a letter to the acting director of the Bureau of Prisons, Hugh Hurwitz, demanding answers - and stating that Epstein’s reported death by hanging “demonstrates severe miscarriages of or deficiencies in inmate protocol and has allowed the deceased to ultimately evade facing justice,” according to the Miami Herald.
On Monday, the FBI raided Little St. James - Epstein’s so-called ‘orgy island,’ according to the Daily Mail, which captured footage of a dozen officers docking speedboats on the island before exploring the property on golf carts. Some agents were spotted on top of Epstein’s luxury home. All officials wore jackets with the letters ‘FBI’ in clear view.
Potential co-conspirators?
With Epstein dead, four women accused of recruiting underage girls for sex with the pedophile financier are coming into focus, including British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell - who has denied all claims. On Monday, AG Barr said that Epstein’s alleged co-conspirators “should not rest easy” just because Epstein won’t have his day in court.
“Let me assure you that case will continue on against anyone who was complicit with Epstein,” said Barr in remarks to a New Orleans law enforcement group, “Any co-conspirators should not rest easy. Victims deserve justice and will get it.”
Maxwell is said to be Epstein’s ex-girlfriend turned business associate. Her current location is unknown.
“She was more of a partner in his obsession, really,” said Miami Herald reporter Julie Brown, who spent more than two years looking into Epstein’s controversial 2008 plea deal. “And there are allegations that she was involved in having sex with some of these girls as well.”
Court documents from 2011 reveal Epstein controlled several apartments in a building just blocks from his $77 million New York townhouse and allegedly housed “underage girls from all over the world.” -CBS News
According to CBS News, Epstein’s estranged brother Mark has identified the body. Meanwhile, the autopsy reports are still pending.

Witness Protection Program, with a little help of his friends!
Little by little the left has stolen our
Moral values..they took over the university’s
Then the media and the public school
Boards..
This was perpetrated by Saul Olinsky & Howard Zihn, incrementally transforming society, government, academia, & the media. Power corrupts, absolute power corrupts absolutely. Time to wake up America!
All salient points. Additionally I would add that MANCHURIAN CANDIDATES (interesting movie about a real World program initiated in 1947) have been used (mass shooters such as in Las Vegas and other places where the shooters die and are never deposed) to attack Our Constitution’s 2nd Amendment. It was said during World War Two (by Our enemies) that America could never be invaded as there would be an armed Citizen behind each bush.
AWAKE!
Yes (((they))) did.
Not to mention all our major cities including mayoral, state congressional and senatorial pluralities and school boards and city planning boards and turned them into 3rd world countries.They get the white House and senate back there will be a new civil war. The same as the first one which was the patriots against a corrupt and tyrannical king. History does indeed repeat itself.
Maurene Comey, Yeah that’s right, James Comey’s daughter, gave Epstein the “final” prosecution. Did she hire her dad’s former associates to do the dirty work for her, and how much did the Clinton’s pay her for that? Or, was this done by a secret “water works” section of the FBI? One thing we can be sure of, Epstein DID NOT commit suicide!! He was accustomed to buying his way out of trouble and he had friends in high places to protect him. He was not about to give up that easily.
I totally agree!! I’m so in believe that the Clintons are and have been, getting away with murder!!every democratic up there knows and receive handouts!! And I’m more than sure that the F B I are involved!!!
Chef, Those 2 are from the synagogue of satan. This is all satanic.
most likely we will never know the truth, just like the other 46 deaths that have clinton ties. when will slickwilly and killary ever pay for the crimes on their hands.they can not be that above the law , need a hangmans noose.
Something awfully shady going on here.
Whenever the Clintons are threatened with exposure to their corruption people turn up in body bags: many times under the false pretense of suicide. Vince Foster anyone? A suicide victim who moved himself to another location. Hmm. Tyson foods executive who died in mysterious plane crash with a bullet hole in the back of his head. Seth Rich found dead in front of his residence. An apparent failed robbery. Nothing was missing. His wallet, his jewelry. Nothing was taken. DC police really covering that up. Leaks to Wiki leaks supposedly Russians. It was Seth Rich
For the record = Stephen Wasserman is the US Attorney in Washington, DC handling the SETH RICH case.
He is the brother of Democrat US Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-schultz who was forced to RESIGN as Chair of the DNC when it was revealed that she and the DNC had RIGGED the Democrat party’s primary elections on behalf of Hillary Clinton, against Bernie Sanders, so that the Butcher of BENGHAZI would be Democrat presidential nominee for 2016.
God will prevail. Christians, stand up and save our children and our country.
” evil may have its hour, but God will have His day ” …. / F.J.Sheen /
He’s on ice.
Left wing murder and now they are going after ICE and our police force and any other law enforcement group they oppose. This BS NEEDS TO BE STOPPED AND THESE RADICAs AND RADICAL GROUPS NEED TO BE STOPPED BY FORCE!!!. DEMAND FROM YOUR GOV REP. that THE ACTIONS OF THESE LEFT WING RADICAL IDIOTS SUCH AS ANTIFA AND OTHERS LIKE THEM BE STOPPED BY WHAT EVERY MEANS NECESSARY.PERMANENT DEPORTATION OF THE LEADERS AND ALL INDIVIDUALS PARTICIPATING WOULD BE A GREAT SOLUTION !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
If Bill & Killary can afford $million to Loretta Lynch on tarmac in Phoenix, they can afford to pay the guards to turn off the CCTV’s and go on break until the dastardly deed is accomplished on Epstein. They will hunt down Maxwell and kill her as well. Dead people don’t squeal.
Yes indeed - I read Christopher Ruddy’s book “The Strange Death of Vincent Foster” too.
I read today that the guards were asleep!
All will give account to the only true and living God one day. The God of Abraham, Issac and Jacob. The book rules for radicals by Saul Alinsky tells all that is happening now,Clinton and Obama worshipped him he worshipped Satan. This nation is over if 2020 goes to the radical left.
I believe Trump IS a Russian agent!
Then you have a mental illness. Seek help.
I believe you are a Russian behind!
Ya and you are a half waited a hole
THE WARDEN OF THE PRISON EPSTEIN WAS HELD IS TOTALLY DEEP STATE….HAD A HAND IN HIS MURDER I SAY…THE PHOTO OF HIM ON THE GURNEY DID LOOK LIKE HIM….I THINK HE IS TRULY DEAD BUT WHERE IN THE HECK IS MAXWELL?
DID YOU ALL SEE THE PAINTING AT EPSTEINS MANSION OF BILL CLINTON WEARING HEELS AND THE MONICA LEWINSKYS BLUE DRESS…OMG. THESE MEN ARE SICK….FEELING ABOVE THE LAW AND NOW IT IS ALL COMING TO LIGHT. WE KNOW THAT HAITI KIDSAND IMPOVERISHED KIDS FROM AROUND THE WORLD WERE TRAFFICKED….EPSTEIN DID NOT SPEND 29 MILLION TO DESTROY ALL THE UNDERGROUND TUNNELS ON THAT ISLAND FOR NOTHING….HUB FOR CHILD SEX TRAFFICKING I BELIEVE…
I want to make it perfectly clear, I know nothing bad about the Democrat Party members.
Lowell, you HAVE got to be kidding. Where have you been hiding? Carter gave our military to the UN. Clinton and all the deaths associated with his administration, the Lewinsky scandal, Whitewater, lying to the grand jury. Obama’s questionable eligibility for the Presidency, abuse of power regarding executive orders, initiating the current crisis at our southern border, Obamacare. And that doesn’t take into account the DNC nominating a candidate whose eligibility is questionable. For that reason alone I will never vote for another democrat. I’ll write in my cat or leave it blank first. And there’s Pelosi, Waters, AOC and company. I am done with the democrats.
Maybe Lowell knows to post otherwise on line just might bring him unwanted attention. Any smart person will be very careful about which claims they make on any social media site. Sad but frightfully true.
You are a stupid, liar!
Trust me. They’ll pay. If not on this side of Jordan then on the other side.
They won’t pay until going before God. This world is ruled by satan and they’ve sold their soul’s for their evil protections. This makes it very clear why victims hide their horrible experiences.
This is just the beginning, there will be other bodies found because of so many important sicko’s who raped little children who used this ass hole as their tour guide! Barr should grab someone like Chris Tucker and waterboard his ass until he talks!
No doubt that this will not be the end of the silencing those they still have to fear.
This child trafficking for sex slaves has been going on for decades and it is a travesty! It is a huge disgusting terrible thing and an unlimited amount of people have known and said nothing! That is almost as horrifying as the acts themselves!
Your words are more true than you realize.
Someone should take Bill Clinton on a country tour of the Mississippi Back waters over around Missouri!
I’m sick and tired of all the bullshit the DNC does and never gets in trouble over! I wish Barr would Deputize me, and several people I could round up as my posse and give us a wide range of jurisdiction and the capability to have a dead or alive clause, I would make America Great again!
Retired, Seal Team Members, a few NRA Brothers, some good ol boys, maybe some great minds, and fun companions like Willie, Waylon, Hank Jr. Ted Nugent, even Shaq!
I’m sure the Aryan Brotherhood couldn’t wait to get their hands around Epstein’s neck! That kind of crime pisses off all the gangs in prisons!
This entire Epstein debacle reeks of the Clinton body count! How many more before they are thoroughly investigated, along with baraq and goonies? So much hidden, but the damn GOP is too polite to put them under scrutiny by a “Special Counsel”.
Why? We know they have skeletons that they’re hiding also, but nothing compared to the Deep State, radical, liberal, soros puppets! This is “Save American” time… and time is running out! In typical Hitler fashion, the left are trying to take our weapons, make us weak, for the final takeover! They have NO idea what they’re up against! President Trump is backed by our military 100%. By the Grace of God and the power of good over evil, we can win this battle… whether it remains with words or moves to action!
