Er lijkt nu toch echt shot in de zaak te komen.

The House committee investigating disgraced sex offender Jeffrey Epstein announced on Friday it is seeking testimony from a prison guard on duty the night the New York financier died.
In a letter posted to the House Oversight Committee’s X account, Chair James Comer, R-Ky., called Tova Noel, who allegedly Googled Epstein minutes before his body was found, for a deposition on March 26.
“Due to public reporting, documents released by the Department of Justice, and documents obtained by the Committee, the Committee believes you have information that will assist in its investigation,” the letter to Noel states.
Epstein was arrested in July 2019 on federal child sex trafficking charges and died by suicide weeks later in a federal jail in New York City. Noel was on duty that night and allegedly failed to do routine checks on Epstein. She and another guard were accused with falsifying records to cover up the missed checks, though criminal charges were ultimately dropped.
The deposition of Noel is part of a sweeping investigation into Epstein, his accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell and potential co-conspirators, as well as the circumstances of his death.
Noel did not immediately respond to a request for comment placed via her attorney or to a voicemail left on her publicly listed phone number.
