(CNN) Two Bureau of Prisons guards were charged by a federal grand jury Tuesday with conspiracy and filing false records in connection with their actions the night Jeffrey Epstein died in prison. Discovery of Epstein's bodyThe indictment of the guards provides a detailed timeline of their actions and the discovery of Epstein's body. The cell was just 15 feet from the desk where the charged guards sat the night he died. Epstein's suicide exposed what the prison's employee union has said are chronically overworked and short-staffed conditions at the Metropolitan Correction Center, including forced overtime and officers reassigned to guard duty. While the charges against the guards appear to answer some of the questions that have circulated in connection to Epstein's death, for many of his victims they don't compensate for his absence.
