Jerrold Nadler. Picture: REUTERS/JOSHUA ROBERTSA top US legislator joined the chorus of officials demanding answers from the US bureau of prisons over the apparent suicide of Jeffrey Epstein in federal custody.
Epstein was awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges when he was found dead on Saturday, having apparently hanged himself in his cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Centre in lower Manhattan. Nadler said if the allegations of mistakes made at the prison were true, it would demonstrate “severe miscarriages of, or deficiencies in, inmate protocol and has allowed the deceased to ultimately evade facing justice”.
In his remarks on Monday, at the Grand Lodge Fraternal Order of Police National Biennial Conference, Barr said the criminal case against Epstein was personally important to him and that his death denied his victims the chance to confront Epstein in a courtroom.
