In this July 8, 2019 file photo, Attorney General William Barr speaks during a tour of a federal prison in Edgefield, S.C. Attorney General William Barr said he initially had his own suspicions about financier Jeffrey Epstein's death while behind bars at one of the most secure jails in America but came to conclude that his suicide was the result of "a perfect storm of screw-ups."
Barr's comments come days after two correctional officers who were responsible for guarding the wealthy financier when he died were charged with falsifying prison records. Officers Tova Noel and Michael Thomas are accused of sleeping and browsing the internet -- shopping for furniture and motorcycles -- instead of watching Epstein, who was supposed to be checked on every 30 minutes.
But the indictment also provided new details that reinforce the idea that, for all the intrigue regarding Epstein and his connections to powerful people, his death was a suicide -- as the city's medical examiner concluded -- and possibly preventable.The attorney general also sought to dampen conspiracy theories by people who have questioned whether Epstein really took his own life, saying the evidence proves Epstein killed himself.
The Justice Department is still investigating the circumstances that led to Epstein's death, including why he wasn't given a cellmate.
I am amazed that is reporting this usually you guys will defend this kind of thing
It was a murder. Anyone who thinks otherwise is a mental midget or part of the crime.
That's a running theme in this administration
Not sure why CTV is reporting this after not reporting about ABC Hiding or Spiking the Epstein story 3 Yrs ago. The media are covering up for ABC the past 2 wks when story broke. They seem to not care about victims these days just covering their BUTTS.
Hint one word : Clinton’s.
You misspelled 'murder'.
... and planned!
All Clintons accusers seem to die
Cover up
Why is no one trying to track down Epstein's 'girlfriend' and madam GhislaineMaxwell who allegedly wrangled and sometimes also abused the victims?
Go easy on them, it was the strangler’s first day
No, it was the perfect execution of a plan. That doesnt sound like an actual answer to the questions a thorough investigation would answer
Right, 'screw-ups.' 🙄
'cover ups'
