Jail officials let Jeffrey Epstein make an unmonitored call on the night he died by suicide.

“Hours before convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in a notorious New York City jail cell, staffers allowed him to make an unmonitored phone call to his “mother” — but his mom had already been dead at that point for 15 years.

Specifics surrounding Epstein’s August 9, 2019 evening phone call were detailed in a lengthy report released on Tuesday by a Justice Department watchdog.

The scathing report from the Office of the Inspector General says that a unit manager at Manhattan’s Metropolitan Correctional Center let Epstein make the phone call after he asked to call his mother, who actually died in 2004.

The staffer told investigators that he put Epstein in the shower area to make the call “because that location ensured Epstein would not be able to pull the phone cord into his cell and use it to harm himself.”

The call violated prison policy, investigators said.”
