Attorney General William Barr said Monday he learned of “serious irregularities” at the Manhattan prison where accused child sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein died Saturday.

Barr vowed that the investigation will continue and warned that Epstein’s co-conspirators “should not rest easy.”

Dr. Barbara Sampson, New York City’s chief medical examiner, said Sunday evening an autopsy had been completed and that the medical examiner’s final determination is pending further information.

Barr, speaking at an event for the Fraternal Order of Police in New Orleans this morning, said that he was “appalled” to learn of Epstein’s apparent suicide and revealed the Justice Department was “learning of serious irregularities at this facility that are deeply concerning and demand a thorough investigation.” The Bureau of Prisons said Saturday that Epstein was found dead in his cell that morning.

He promised that Justice Department Inspector General Michael Horowitz and the FBI, who are both investigating the circumstances surrounding Epstein’s death, will "get to the bottom of what happened."
