According to the Justice Department’s watchdog, Jeffrey Epstein’s suicide in his jail cell in August 2019 was a result of a combination of negligence, misconduct, and job performance failures by the federal Bureau of Prisons and the workers at the New York City jail.

The investigation found no evidence of foul play but highlighted several factors that contributed to Epstein’s death.

One significant failure was the jail’s failure to assign Epstein a cellmate, leaving him alone in his cell. Additionally, most of the surveillance cameras in his unit did not record, creating a lack of crucial evidence.

Furthermore, a worker was on duty for an uninterrupted 24-hour shift, leading to exhaustion and compromised performance, The Associated Press reported.
