It's almost like the prison was trying to create suspicion over Epstein's death.
Jeffrey Epstein's cell was not monitored night of apparent suicide, source says - CNN
Jeffrey Epstein's cell was not regularly monitored the night he is believed to have killed himself, a source with knowledge of the accused sex trafficker's time at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York said Sunday.
Epstein, 66, was in the special housing unit in a cell by himself when he was found dead early Saturday. He initially had a cellmate, but that person was removed for reasons unknown, the source said.
It's protocol for inmates coming off suicide watch not to be placed alone in a cell, according to the source.
Protocol within the federal detention center's Special Housing Unit is for guards to check on inmates every 30 minutes. If the inmates appear to be asleep, protocol states guards should make sure they're OK, the source added.
