House panel seeks testimony from guard on duty when Epstein died

Source: Scripps News

Posted 1:25 PM, Mar 13, 2026


The House Oversight Committee has requested testimony from a prison guard who was on duty the night Jeffrey Epstein died. In a letter to Tova Noel, committee Chairman James Comer said the panel believes she may have information relevant to its investigation into the convicted sex offender.

"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," Comer stated.

Comer asked Noel to appear for a transcribed interview on March 26.

In 2019, prosecutors charged Noel with conspiracy and falsification of records, accusing her and another guard of failing to conduct required inmate checks during an overnight shift at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York. Authorities said the two later signed false records indicating they had completed the rounds, leaving Epstein unobserved for hours before he died by suicide.

Trying to reckon what their angle might be, given IQ45 was POTUS at the time of Epstein's death. Democrats looking into someone like this guard would be one thing, but the 'pukes?

I gotta go hmmmmmm!?!

...will stop this testimony from happening? Some sort of "interference in an ongoing investigation" claim?

Hope Ms Noel has a body guard.
