Two guards were indicted Tuesday on charges they falsified records about the night jailed financier Jeffrey Epstein died in custody while awaiting trial on sex-trafficking charges.
Guards Tova Noel and Michael Thomas were accused in the 20-page indictment of preparing records to make it appear as if they conducted mandatory prisoner counts in the special housing unit of Manhattan's Metropolitan Correctional Center when in fact they had not.
The false records were filed repeatedly on the night of Aug. 9 and 10, the indictment from the Southern District of New York states.
