we are going to try and put this puzzle together tonight. if we start with fox chief breaking news trace. correspondent, trace gallagher. attorney general bill barr says he will get to the bottom of this, pointing out that a number of serious irregularities were found at the federal jail. the ag wouldn t go into detail but our reporting shows the following. at thehe time of his death, jeffrey epstein was not on suicide watch. you ll recall back in july 23rd, epstein was found in his jail cell with bruises on his neck. epstein claimed he d been beaten up, but the injuries were treated as self-inflicted and epstein was placed on suicide watch, meaning 24-hour a day surveillance. but after a series of psychiatric assessments and pressure from his attorneys, the suicide watch was lifted and epstein was placed in a special housing unit with a cellmate. but for some reason, despite a violation of procedure, the cellmate transferred out. so at the time of his death, epstein was alone.

fourth, fifth, and sixth will work and save the day. here, everything that could go wrong did gove wrong, is that correct? it s what they say happened and that s why i think bill bar bill barr the attorney general is so upset about this particular case and what happened to jeffrey epstein because my hard huss name is epstein, i like to make that difference. my concern is that everything depends on at least some of the protocols being observed. and in this instance, as you point out, conveniently, everything went wrong. i have so many questions still about what happened in that jai jail. there are usually, by the way,il no cameras in a specific cell but there are cameras everywhere in the common areas so that jail would who went in and out at what time, presumably.
mark: we ve exported from the medical perspective. thank you, doctor. we will explore it from the law enforcement perspective. fitzgerald, a retired fbi profiler, author of this year s journey to the center of the mind, he also has experiences with the exact prison epstein died and jim fitzgerald joins us now. we ve heard all day on fox and other stations about the protocols in this situation, but given the unique situation here, why didn t jeffrey epstein have a kind of custom-built protocol? i mean, he s finger high-profile people not just in the united states establishment, but from countries overseas and elsewhere. why why, in other words, was this neglect allowed to happen? well, mark, i want to start up with an anecdote and when i was a young detective sergeant
suspicious of jeffrey epstein s convenient death. he has been putting together everything. mark, when you are a sex offender and you kill yourself right when they decide to ignore it. msnbc s isn t convinced answers will be forthcoming. watch. this is now a facility under control of the department of justice. and this department of justice does not exactly inspire confidence. let s just be blunt. his justice department is not one that you can rely upon and feel confident in. mark: they are in charge of everything now. president trump also weighed into conspiracy theory waters. suicide watch, yeah right. how does that happen? now, he s dead. we know who did this.
