The Department of Justice moved to drop its case against two Bureau of Prison workers who admitted to falsifying logs and were accused of sleeping and browsing the internet instead of monitoring jet-setting financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein the night he allegedly killed himself in his prison cell.

Nicolas Roos, an assistant U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, told a federal court that prosecutors want to drop the charges entirely. He said the DOJ filing of a “nolle prosequi,” a Latin phrase indicating that prosecutors have decided to abandon the prosecution of a case, “will dispose of this case” against the guards.
