This document is an indictment filed on November 19, 2019, against correctional officers Tova Noel and Michael Thomas. It charges them with conspiracy and falsifying records for failing to perform required counts and rounds in the Special Housing Unit of the Metropolitan Correctional Center on the night of August 9-10, 2019, when inmate Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide. The indictment details that the officers browsed the internet and slept instead of monitoring inmates, then signed false certifications stating checks had been completed.
