Federal prosecutors offered a plea deal to two correctional officers responsible for guarding Jeffrey Epstein on the night of his death, but the officers have declined the offer, people familiar with the matter told The Associated Press. The existence of the plea offer signals the Justice Department is considering criminal charges in connection with the wealthy financiers death at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York in August. The citys medical examiner ruled Epsteins death a suicide. The guards on Epsteins unit are suspected of failing to check on him every half hour, as required, and of fabricating log entries to show they had. As part of the proposed plea deal, prosecutors wanted the guards to admit they falsified the prison records, according to the people familiar with the matter.

Falsification of records has been a problem throughout the federal prison system. Kathleen Hawk Sawyer, who was named director of the Bureau of Prisons after Epsteins death, disclosed in a Nov. 4 internal memo that a review of operations across the agency found some staff members failed to perform required rounds and inmate counts but logged that they had done so anyway. Falsification of information in government systems and documents is also a violation of policy, and may be subject to criminal prosecution as well, Hawk Sawyer wrote in the memo to top prison officials, a copy of which was obtained by the AP. The memo also noted that staff members who are indicted by a grand jury will be placed on an indefinite, unpaid suspension until the resolution of the criminal case.

The difference between Kurt Cobain and Epstein? Epstein didn't kill himself.

Maybe if prison funding hadn't been gutted, the cameras would have worked, and there would have been more guards on duty, Epstein would still be alive.

They would have found the cameras had committed suicide
