Attorney General Barr: Epstein co-conspirators 'should not rest easy'

Attorney General Barr: Epstein co-conspirators 'should not rest easy' originally appeared on abcnews.go.com

Under heightened pressure from lawmakers over the suicide death of accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, Attorney General William Barr said Monday that Epstein's alleged co-conspirators "should not rest easy" just because Epstein won't have his day in court.

"Let me assure you that case will continue on against anyone who was complicit with Epstein," Barr said in remarks to a law enforcement group in New Orleans on Monday. "Any co-conspirators should not rest easy. Victims deserve justice and will get it."

Barr additionally said he was "angered" about what he described as the Manhattan Correctional Center's "failure" to secure Epstein, and highlighted what he called "irregularities" in the MCC's system that have already surfaced in the early stages of the DOJ investigations.

"We are now learning of serious irregularities at this facility that are deeply concerning and demand a thorough investigation," Barr said. "We will get to the bottom of it, and there will be accountability."

That's sarcasm, but probably, predictably, labor will take the fall.

6. It's the same criminally understaffed fed facility that nearly froze inmates to death in January.

This is one for the ages: "We are now learning of serious irregularities at this facility that are deeply concerning and demand a thorough investigation," Barr said. "We will get to the bottom of it, and there will be accountability."

The guy should do stand-up comedy.
