(25 Nov 2019) A US judge has set an April trial date for two jail guards accused of failing to make required checks on Jeffrey Epstein the day he died.
US District Judge Analisa Torres said on Monday that the trial of guards Tova Noel and Michael Thomas could begin on April 20.
They have pleaded ‘not guilty’ to lying on prison records to make it seem as though they had made required checks on the financier before he was found unresponsive in his cell August 10.
New York City’s medical examiner ruled Epstein’s death a suicide.
Epstein was awaiting trial on charges he sexually abused teenage girls at his Manhattan mansion and a Florida home.
