TL;DR Summary

The Justice Department's inspector general released a report on Tuesday that found Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide, not foul play, due to negligence and mismanagement at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan. The report revealed that the jail's staff members allowed Epstein to hoard extra blankets, linens, bedding, and clothing, despite the fact that he had tried to hang himself earlier. The inspector general referred two supervisors at the facility responsible for ensuring Epstein's safety for criminal prosecution, but prosecutors declined to bring charges.
