Epstein got 'special treatment' in jail, former guard tells House Oversight Committee

Tova Noel is believed to be the last person who saw Epstein before his death.

A former prison guard who was on duty at the federal Metropolitan Corrections Center in New York when convicted Jeffrey Epstein died in 2019 testified Monday that the late sex offender received "special treatment" at the jail, two members of the House Oversight Committee said.

Democratic Reps. Suhas Subramanyam of Virginia and Melanie Stansbury of New Mexico said Tova Noel testified that Epstein received extra bed linens and a CPAP machine, and had access to "medications in a way no one else did."

"I do think [Epstein] was treated differently from the other inmates," Rep. Subramanyam said when asked about Noel's testimony. "Jeffrey Epstein got special treatment in that facility."
