Photographs of Jeffrey Epstein's body being wheeled into hospital moments before he was pronounced dead have emerged, as it's revealed corrections officers had not checked on the pedophile for several hours before his death.

Epstein is seen wearing an orange jumpsuit and what appears to be a brace around his neck as he is pushed on a gurney into New York Presbyterian-Lower Manhattan hospital Saturday morning.

In one image, paramedics appear to be attempting to revive ashen-faced Epstein with CPR to no avail.

On Sunday evening, The Washington Post reported that Epstein had been left in his cell for hours without being checked on, when guards should have been looking in on him every 30 minutes.

A source told the outlet he should also have had a cellmate, however someone who had been assigned to move in with him was transferred on Friday. Therefore, he was alone in his cell at the time of his death.

NYC's Chief Medical Examiner has now completed Epstein's autopsy but said more information is needed before a cause of death can be determined.
