Federal investigators found a loaded gun Thursday in the same Manhattan jail where Jeffrey Epstein killed himself last summer, CBS New York reports, citing the federal Bureau of Prisons.

The discovery was made a week into a lockdown that was put in place after officials learned a gun might have been smuggled in, the bureau said, adding that a sizable amount of contraband was found, as well. It included cell phones, narcotics and homemade weapons.

The lockdown had inmates confined to their cells without access to their lawyers and meant all visitations were cancelled, The Associated Press said.

The jail was still under lockdown as investigators continued their search and tried to determine how the gun and other items were smuggled in. The jail is supposed to be one of the most secure in the nation.

1. That place is more porous than swiss cheese....

either people are getting paid to smuggle or the staff is on the pad.......

Time to change the visitation system no physical contact or hire more competent staff.

3. Smuggled in....................

I thought visitors were searched ???

Maybe a visitor wasn't searched or a dirty cop was taking cash and allowing contraband in.
