Former federal prison guard Tova Noel, who was responsible for overseeing the cell of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein on the night of his death, is now facing allegations of assault at her new job.
Mayda Roman, a co-worker at Montefiore Einstein Advanced Care in Westchester County, New York, has filed a lawsuit claiming that Noel assaulted her during a training session.
According to court documents filed at the Westchester County Supreme Court, Noel became angry and punched Roman in the left arm after being interrupted. The lawsuit also alleges that Noel "put her hands on" Roman and forcefully pulled her ear while yelling at her in front of other colleagues. These incidents left Roman feeling anxious and afraid of Noel.
Furthermore, Noel is accused of making false accusations of racism against Roman after she requested a patient to disclose their race. Following a meeting with human resources, Roman was fired, while Noel remains employed.
Roman, who described Noel as a "bully" and a "liar," expressed her disappointment with the situation, stating, "I don't like problems, and I really did like the job." Her attorney, Christopher Berlingieri, emphasized that Roman is a hard-working mother who does not deserve such treatment.
It is worth noting that Noel had previously faced legal trouble for falsifying prison records related to Epstein's death. However, she accepted a plea deal to avoid imprisonment and subsequently found employment as a medical office assistant at Montefiore Einstein Advanced Care in Westchester.
The allegations against Noel raise concerns about her behavior and suitability for her current position. As the legal proceedings unfold, it remains to be seen how the situation will be resolved and what consequences, if any, Noel will face for her actions.
