Guards on the unit are now suspected of faking log entries to show they were making the necessary checks, according to a source. But less than a week after he was found with marks on his neck, prison officials determined he was no longer a threat.But his cellmate was later transferred, leaving Epstein alone on Friday night.
Calls are mounting for those behind the mistakes at the jail to be punished amid reports that the guards involved were working overtime. They are expected to reconstruct the scene, analyse why Epstein took his own life and look at how it happened, the official said. Jose Rojas, a union leader and teacher at a federal prison in Florida, said N'Diaye should be home without pay instead of being reassigned.
He pleaded not guilty to child sex trafficking charges in New York and could face 45 years in prison if found guilty.
