Prison Guards Discussed Covering Up Epstein's Death On Morning He Died: Report

An inmate at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York told the FBI that he overheard guards talking about covering up the death of Jeffrey Epstein hours after it happened, according to a new report.

The Miami Herald reported that the inmate described the scene to the FBI. He said that he woke up on the morning of Epstein's death and heard a commotion, with guards shouting "breathe!" and one later saying "dudes, you killed that dude."

A female guard replied: "If he's dead, we're going to cover it up and he's going to have an alibi," according to the FBI notes of the interview. After that, the inmate said he heard others said "Miss Noel killed Jeffrey."

The inmate identified the officer as Tova Noel, who was later charged with falsifying reports so it would show they made their rounds on the night of Epstein's death, when that didn't happen. The charges against them were dropped but they were fired.

Elsewhere, the outlet recalled that the New York Medical Examiner and the Department of Justice concluded that Epstein died by suicide, but a forensic pathologist hired by the estate of the disgraced financier and abuser said the injuries were more similar to strangulation.

The New York Post also reported that Noel had $5,000 deposited in her bank account a week after what officials believed to be a suicide attempt in July 2019. Reports into the incident show that Epstein initially told prison officials that a cellmate tried to extort him for money and to kill him. She received thousands in cash and electronic payments the months prior to Epstein's death. She was also making payments for a brand new Range Rover.

Noel also searched "latest on Epstein in jail" twice on the morning of Epstein's death, before he was found in his cell.
