On the morning of 08/10/2019, convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein was found dead at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Lower Manhattan. The photos were taken by New York's office of chief medical examiner, and they raised more questions than they answer. Epstein's body was removed before investigators arrived. And Epstein's cell, experts say, should have been treated as a crime scene. Epstein's death was quickly ruled a suicide, but an investigation of jail cell photos by CBS News working with forensic experts has raised serious questions about the New York medical examiner and the FBI's work, including a failure to preserve the scene, log evidence, and run basic forensic tests. There are 90 photos in all showing a cell strewn with blankets and strips of fabric tied to the bed and window grate.
