Why is it taking so long for authorities to scour the video streams for clues?
This entire saga over the past 10 days reminds me of those TV shows/movies with inept police and investigators!
British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell was spotted in Los Angeles on Monday, photographed reading a book on the history of the CIA at a popular fast food restaurant. The 57-year-old's whereabouts have been the subject of intense attention since the unsealing last week of court documents alleging she played a key role in assisting Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse of young girls.

Also heard that he had been talking to his lawyers A LOT. Dunno if a suicidal man would bother..
The day after he was taken off suicide watch, disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein spent at least two hours locked up alone with a young woman, in a private room reserved for inmates and their attorneys, according to an attorney who was visiting the prison that day. "The optics were startling. Because she was young. And pretty,” said the visiting attorney, who asked that his name not be used because he didn’t want to anger the prison administration. NBC News has reported that Epstein paid his lawyers to sit with him in a room for eight hours a day for attorney-client meetings, allowing him to avoid his cell.

Reading a book about the CIA huh? Man this gets stranger every day.
"The source said that Miss Maxwell was reading a book called The Book of Honor: The Secret Lives and Deaths of CIA Operatives"
On July 23, three weeks prior, Epstein was found unconscious in his jail cell with injuries to his neck.[144] After that incident, he was placed on suicide watch.[224] Six days later on July 29, Epstein was taken off suicide watch and placed in a special housing unit with another inmate. The jail had informed the Justice Department that Epstein would have a cellmate and that a guard would look into the cell every 30 minutes. These procedures were not followed on the night of his death.[13][225] On August 9, Epstein's cellmate was transferred out, and no new replacement cellmate was brought in.[226] Later in the evening, in violation of the jail's normal procedure, Epstein was not being checked every 30 minutes.[13][225] The two guards who were assigned to check his jail unit that night fell asleep and did not check on him for about three hours.[227] In the morning, he was found dead

Typically there is a minimum time in suicide watch if it's flagged.
Afterwards you're supposed to have a cellmate to keep you company as they found that helps.
Epstein was reported as the first suicide in 21~ years.
Really makes you wonder.

Thank you, very informative.
Do you know if the EMS team would have removed the
sheets/noose or would the guards have done that
before they were called in?

Fractures of the hyoid bone and thyroid cartilage in suicidal hanging.
So while rare, it can happen.
I don't typically lean towards conspiracy... But this one is just too loud.
Bulger was transferred from the Federal Transfer Center in Oklahoma City to United States Penitentiary, Hazelton, in West Virginia on October 29, 2018.[20][94] At 8:20 a.m. on October 30, the 89-year-old Bulger[95] was found unresponsive in the prison. Bulger was in a wheelchair and had been beaten to death by multiple inmates armed with a sock-wrapped padlock and a shiv. His eyes had nearly been gouged out and his tongue almost cut off.[96][97][98] This was the third homicide at the prison in a 40-day span.[99]Correctional officers had warned Congress just days before the most recent Hazelton death that facilities were being dangerously understaffed.[97] Massachusetts-based mafia hitman Fotios "Freddy" Geas is the primary suspect in orchestrating the killing of Bulger and he has not disputed his role.[96][100][101] Geas, 51, and his brother were sentenced to life in prison in 2011 for their roles in several violent crimes, including the 2003 killing of Adolfo "Big Al" Bruno, a Genovese crime family boss who was shot in a Springfield, Massachusetts, parking lot.[102]
On November 8, 2018, a funeral mass was held for Bulger at Saint Monica – Saint Augustine Church in South Boston. Family members, including his brother, former Massachusetts state Senate president William M. Bulger, and the twin sister of Catherine Greig attended.[103]
Bulger is buried at St. Joseph's Cemetery in the Boston Neighborhood of West Roxbury under the Bulger family headstone inscribed with the names of his parents.[104]
