Fwd: Urgent request -- Potential leak in hospital regarding Epstein's death
TEXT.htm
>>> Jane Lytvynenko
> 8/10/2019 6:03 PM >>>
Hello,
I'm a reporter with BuzzFeed News. I'm reaching out because we suspect one of the paramedics
involved in responding the Jeffrey Epstein call posted information online before it was reported in the
mainstream media.
We were able to view posts on the website 4chan, frequented by far-right trolls, that were published a full
45 minutes before ABC news first reported Epstein's death. I'd like to send you the posts to verify
whether the information in them is correct and whether it could have come to your team but in addition to
that, do you have any statement on the situation?
Thank you,
Jane

in R & D stated that yesterday when Epstein came back from court he had to sign a form with the Marshals that
he said noted, "Suicidal tendencies."
denied that it said he was suicidal.
Do I see him? Do I do a SRA?

Good morning all,
Epstein's attorneys are trying to get him his CPAP machine per our request. Can we have them hand-
deliver it to medical staff as we have in previous instances?
Thank you,
>>> "Jonathan Savella" <jonathan.savella@gmail.com> 7/26/2019 9:50 AM >>>
,
Is Mr. Epstein approved to receive a CPAP machine? If so, should we
send it directly to him through the inmate mail system? Please confirm.

MEMORANDUM FOR
ASSISTANT INSPECTOR GENERAL
INVESTIGATIONS DIVISION
FROM:
Section/Chief
External Auditing Branch
SUBJECT:
Status Update to the Office of Inspector General's (OIG)
Final Report dated June 26, 2023: Investigation and Review of the Federal
Bureau of Prisons' Custody, Care, and Supervision of Jeffrey Epstein at the
Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, New York
The Bureau of Prisons (BOP) appreciates the opportunity to provide a response to the Office of the
Inspector General's above referenced memorandum received on June 26, 2023. The BOP has
completed our review of the analysis and we offer the following status update regarding the analysis
and its recommendations.
Recommendation One: The BOP should implement a process for assigning a cellmate
following suicide watch or psychological observation, with criteria for exceptions based on the
particular individual or security considerations.
BOP's Response: Reentry Services Division (RSD) and Correctional Programs Division (CPD)
are collaborating on a CEO memo to provide guidance to the field on a process to ensure
psychologists make recommendations regarding housing, including the presence of a cellmate,
for individuals in custody following suicide watch or psychological observation. This process
will include exemptions based on individual or security considerations.
Recommendation Two: The BOP should establish procedures to ensure inmates at high risk for
suicide and for whom a cellmate is recommended will continue to have a cellmate until the
recommendation is changed or rescinded, including establishing a contingency plan for cellmate
EFTA00036011

=== Page 2 ===
re-assignment, with criteria for exceptions based on the particular individual or security
considerations.
BOP's Response: RSD and CPD are collaborating on a CEO memo to provide guidance to the
field on procedures to ensure communication regarding the requirement of a cellmate for
individuals following suicide watch or psychological observation when recommended by a
psychologist. This will include a procedure for exemptions based on individual or security
considerations.
Recommendation Three: The BOP should evaluate its current process for obtaining and
documenting approval for social or legal visits while an inmate is on suicide watch or
psychological observation, which allows for institution-specific variations in the process, and
provide guidance on standard components that each institution should include in its process to
mitigate security issues that can arise when an inmate is on suicide watch or psychological
observation.
BOP's Response: The BOP is currently evaluating its process for obtaining and documenting
approval for social and/or legal visits while an inmate is on suicide watch or psychological
observation. This evaluation will inform future guidance on this issue.
Recommendation Four: The BOP should evaluate its methods of accounting for inmate
whereabouts and wellbeing and make changes as may be appropriate to improve those methods
through policy, training, or other measures.
BOP's Response: The BOP concurs with this recommendation. Program Statement 5500.14,
Correctional Services Procedures Manual, is currently being updated to include additional inmate
accountability aspects.
Recommendation Five: BOP policy should clarify what is required of a Lieutenant when
conducting a round.
BOP's Response: The BOP concurs with this recommendation. Program Statement 5500.14,
Correctional Services Procedures Manual, is currently being updated to include clarification on
the requirements for conducting Lieutenant rounds.
Recommendation Six: The BOP should continue to develop and implement plans to address
staffing shortages at its prisons.
BOP's Response: As of June 2023, the BOP has deployed an automated staffing tool for
institution correctional services departments to be evaluated. The tool continues to be tested and
evaluated as we prepare to move forward with additional disciplines/departments throughout the
BOP. Other efforts to retain qualified personnel include but are not limited to the various
recruitment and retention incentives the BOP currently offers that are available to staff to include
staggered retention incentives for all who were retirement eligible as of December 31, 2022. In
March 2023, the Director authorized a bureau-wide recruitment incentive of $10,000 or 25% on
initial salary (whichever is greater), for newly hired Correctional Officers who onboard between
EFTA00036012

=== Page 3 ===
March 26, 2023, through September 24, 2023. That incentive was recently extended to
Correctional Officers who enter on duty with an effective date no later than December 17, 2023.
Further, in July 2023, the Director approved a Bureau-wide retention incentive for all
Lieutenants. Additionally, the BOP continues to seek other viable pay options for Correctional
Officers in an effort to remain competitive and attractive to new applicants.
Recommendation Seven: The BOP should evaluate its cell search procedures and make changes
as may be appropriate to improve those procedures through policy, training, or other measures.
BOP's Response: The BOP concurs with this recommendation. As such, our policies will be
discussed with staff during regular rounds to ensure current procedures are followed where it
relates to cell searches.
Recommendation Eight: The BOP should enhance existing policies regarding institutional
security camera systems to ensure they specifically state that such systems must have the
capacity to record video and that BOP institutions must conduct regular security camera system
functionality checks.
BOP's Response: The BOP concurs with this recommendation. Policy will be updated to
include the regular functionality checks.

LOGISITCS:
This course, Managing Housing Units, is divided into two (2) parts, Part I and Part II.
Participants must complete both parts to receive training credit.
Part I of this lesson should be conducted at a common area for employees only. The area
should be a confined area for open discussion about sensitive issues and topics. Examples of
areas to conduct Part I include a training center, a classroom, or a visiting room.
Part II of this lesson should be conducted inside a housing unit. The purpose of Part II of the
lesson will be to conduct or assist with at least one (1) or all of the following practical exercises
as indicated by the Warden:
Area search
Cell search
Irregular Round
Bed Book Audit
Fire and Security Check
PRIOR TO INSTRUCTION:
1. Read all components of the curriculum (i.e., lesson plan and activities.)
2. Refer to the Warden or other delegated official for the specific location of Part I and Part Il
of the lesson. Consider the approximate time it will take to move from the location of Part I
to the location of Part II (if applicable). Plan accordingly.
3. Print all documents to represent your local facility for the Participant Manual.
4. Print all documents to represent your local facility for the Group Resource Manual.
5. Prepare for instruction. This includes addressing the following:
Number of Participants: Determine how many participants will be in attendance.
Participant Manual: Using the number of participants in the class, copy the number of
student packets you will need (one per participant) to conduct the training. Note: Since
participants will not be writing on these manuals, you may use them again for other
scheduled classes of Managing Housing Units.
Group Resource Manual: Determine how many groups of five (5) participants will be in
the class. Make copies, one (1) for each group, to conduct the training. Note: Since
participants will not be writing on these manuals, you may use them again for other
scheduled classes of Managing Housing Units.
Activities: Copy the number of activities needed; that is, one (1) activity for each group.
Participants will write on these activity sheets, therefore, you will need to make
additional copies for other scheduled classes of Managing Housing Units.
6. Take all printed materials to the training site identified for Part I of this course.

I. INTRODUCTION
For this module of Back 2 Basics, we will be reviewing policy and procedures for effectively
performing duties when managing a housing unit.
Note: Refer to the Participant and Group packets.
Note: Describe the logistics of the training. This should include start time, stop time, breaks,
location change (if applicable), etc.
Note: Ask if there are any questions before continuing. Address all questions.
II. POST ORDERS
A. General Post Orders
Note: Instruct participants to look at their individual packets for specific post orders.
Post Orders describe all procedures and any special instructions regarding a specific post. Per
Program Statement, Correctional Services Procedures Manual, post orders must be based on
Bureau and institution policies, must state each post's duty hours, and must be prepared under
the Captain's supervision and direction.
Note: Discuss procedures for reviewing and signing post orders in the Lieutenant's office.
Discussion: What is the procedure if there is no opportunity to review post orders?
In these cases, it is the responsibility of the employee to inform the employer of the fact they
have not been able or afforded the opportunity to read such orders. The employer will then
advise the employee of the general requirements of the post and answer any questions.
Employees assuming posts under these circumstances still have the responsibility of
exercising sound correctional judgment based upon their training and experience and will
make reasonable efforts to read the post orders as soon as practicable.
Note: Refer to the Group Resource Manual. Ask them to take a look at the Title and
Location of Post Orders and Post Order Review Sheet noting the areas where signatures are
needed. Ask if there are any questions before continuing.
Each post order will contain instructions regarding the immediate action an employee should
take in an emergency situation. These "first responder" instructions should contain specific
action steps including, but not limited to, containment, employee protective considerations,
and emergency reporting protocols. Particular requirements regarding assaultive inmates,
suicides, fires, evacuation routes, and other "immediate" response emergency situations are
addressed and are consistent with the corresponding Emergency Plan.

B. Specific Post Orders
Note: Refer to the Group Resource Manual as needed for the next section.
All post orders contain five (5) separate sections in the following order:
Section 1: Activities listed chronologically with responsibilities clearly defined.
Section 2: Special instructions relating to the specific post.
Section 3: General Post Orders - applicable to all posts.
Section 4: List of Program Statements and Institution Supplements relevant to the post.
Section 5: Employee Signature sheet.
Post orders and log books are confidential documents and should never be left unattended or
in an area accessible to inmates. They must be secured at all times when not in use by
employees.
Knowledge Check: Where are the Post Orders located in housing units at this institution?
Knowledge Check: Where should you log pertinent information regarding inmates?
Note: Ask if there are any questions regarding Post Orders. Upon completion of discussion,
continue with instruction.
III. ASSUMING DUTIES OF A CORRECTIONAL POST
Discussion: What are some of the first things you must do upon arriving?
A. Begin Logging Documentation
According to the Correctional Services Procedures Manual and our identified post orders, you
must begin logging documentation in TRUSCOPE.
Items that must be logged upon assuming the post include:
Date
Shift
Base count of the unit (number of inmates)
Your name (printed legibly)
Key ring number
Number of keys
Equipment
Details about the fire alarm panel (indicating if it is operational)
Back 2 Basics

Managing Housing Units, Part I
EFTA00035854

=== Page 8 ===
FY2024
BACK 2 BASICS
Instructor Guide
Knowledge Check: What should you do if the fire alarm panel is not operational?
B. Contact Control
In addition to logging in the details of equipment, you should contact Control and, with their
approval,
conduct a test of your radio/body alarm, and,
verify the unit count.
C. Dial in with the Operations Lieutenant
Once the base documentation is logged, you may contact the Operations Lieutenant or dial in
for a briefing. It is at this time you should address any questions or concerns you may have
about the shift.
Note: Discuss local procedures for contacting Operations Lieutenant upon assuming duties.
IV. ACCOUNTABILITY OF INMATES ON DETAIL
Accounting for inmate work detail is a crucial part of inmate accountability as all departments
and locations throughout the institution are responsible. If an inmate on your work detail is
missing, the inmate is considered 'absent' and you should follow all procedures for locating the
absentee inmate.
Each detail supervisor should carry the updated and current electronic printout with them
throughout the day.
Note: Refer to your institution's procedures for printing and collecting Detail/Crew Kit Cards.
A. Detail/Crew Kit Cards
The Detail Crew Kit on BOPWARE will automatically be updated to reflect new admissions and
any job or quarter's changes via SENTRY. Each crew kit has current detail cards on all inmates
assigned to the detail. The printouts are never to be left unattended or in an area accessible to
inmates. At a minimum, crew kit cards provide:
Names of the inmates;
Register number;
Current photo (a new photo must be made whenever an inmate's appearance changes);
Job assignment;
Quarters assignment;
Custody level; and
Any special conditions.
Back 2 Basics

Managing Housing Units, Part I
EFTA00035855

=== Page 9 ===
FY2024
BACK 2 BASICS
Instructor Guide
Inmates will never be allowed to handle detail/crew kits and/or the cards assigned to the kits.
Note: Discuss how to identify an inmate that is on the posted picture file. The inmate is
identified with an asterisk.
Note: Discuss local procedures for reporting discrepancies in detail/crew kit cards.
Note: Discuss the shift/responsibility for collecting the detail/crew kits for your local
institution.
Note: Discuss the specific location where the detail/crew kits can be found in the housing
units (e.g., top drawer in desk of officer's station, etc.).
B. Detail Accountability Checks
Detail accountability checks are conducted to identify inmates in unauthorized areas, and to
determine the presence and accuracy of detail cards (crew kit cards).
AM/PM census checks will be documented on Daily Fire and Security Inspection Reports. You
must conduct an AM/PM census of all inmates assigned to your area during each work period.
Any discrepancies found during the census will be recorded on the inspection report and must
be reported to the Operations Lieutenant immediately.
C. Excusing Inmates from Detail
Knowledge Check: Who can authorize excusing an inmate from work?
The Associate Warden overseeing the department maintains the sole authority to "lay in" a
Work Detail. Detail Supervisors are not authorized to release inmates from their assigned
details prior to the end of normal working hours.
As an additional note, Detail Supervisors will not make sick call appointments for inmates.
V. LOCATING AN ABSENTEE INMATE
If you are responsible for managing the housing unit, it is your responsibility to locate the
inmate on your work detail. With that in mind, make proper notifications and take appropriate
action against the inmate right away.
Knowledge Check: What are the steps to take if inmates are missing or absent from their
work?
Note: Allow input from employees before continuing.
Back 2 Basics

Managing Housing Units, Part I
EFTA00035856

=== Page 10 ===
FY2024
BACK 2 BASICS
Instructor Guide
Per Program Statement 5500.14, inmates who are missing or absent from their work details
should be located in the following manner:
1. Take immediate action to locate the inmate if the inmate does not report to work as
scheduled within ten (10) minutes or fails to return from an appointment.
2. Exhaust all avenues of locating the inmate by calling appointments, the inmate's assigned
housing unit, visiting room (if applicable), and Health Services. If the absent inmate cannot
be located after ten (10) minutes, notify the Lieutenants Office. At this point, the
Lieutenants Office will assume responsibility for locating the inmate.
3. The Lieutenant will ensure proper notifications are made and proper action is taken when
the inmate is found.
Note: Discuss the following in as much detail as needed for your location.
A. Daily Change/Transfer Sheet
The Daily Change/Transfer Sheet is a SENTRY generated list which denotes changes in an
inmate's status. This sheet must be published each regular work day. It includes changes in the
following:
Housing unit;
Job assignment;
Medical idle; and/or,
Convalescence which exceeds one (1) day.
Note: Identify where and how employees can locate the Daily Change/Transfer Sheet in your
local housing units.
B. Inmate Callouts
The Call-Out sheet lists appointments inmates have with employees and is produced by
SENTRY. As you know, it lists the reporting time and physical area where inmates are scheduled
to report. The Call-Out sheet is made available to employees and posted in the inmate housing
units. The employee who places the inmate on call-out must ensure the requested inmate
arrives at the specified time.
Discussion: Who is responsible for ensuring the inmate arrives to the callout at the specific
time?
Note: Identify where and how employees can locate the Inmate Callouts in your local
housing units.

FY2024
BACK 2 BASICS
Instructor Guide
C. Sick Call
Discussion: What are times and days for Sick Call?
For Sick Call, inmates will report to the Health Services Department. When an inmate, for
medical reasons, is excused from work, Health Services employees will issue two (2) copies of
the Medical Idle Authorization to the inmate. The inmate will retain one copy of the idle and
deliver the second copy to the Housing Unit Officer.
Knowledge Check: Who is responsible for notifying the work supervisor of the inmate's idle
status?
The Unit Officer will notify the work supervisor of the inmate's idle status.
Once an appointment is made, the inmate will return to their unit until the assigned
appointment. Inmates will return to Health Services during the assigned movement and remain
there until released by the Health Services employees.
D. SENTRY
Discussion: What are the SENRY functions that may be used for locating an inmate?
Some of the most notable options include PP42/PP44, Current Assignments and PP37, History.
Note: Discuss any additional SENTRY options, as needed or mentioned by employees.
VI. ACTIVITY #1 - LOCATING AN ABSENTEE INMATE
Note: Distribute the worksheet for Activity #1 - Locating an Absentee Inmate, one (1) per
group. Facilitate the activity using the instructor notes provided. Upon completion, continue
instruction.
VII. CONDUCTING ROUNDS
A. Irregular Rounds
Every employee is responsible for the custody, control, supervision, and accountability of all
inmates in their area of responsibility and supervision.
Housing unit posts should make irregular rounds of the units they are assigned. Although there
are no scheduled rounds when moves are open, it is imperative to make rounds for the security
and orderly operation of the institution once moves are closed and the unit is locked. Upon
completion of each round, notification of completion and any additional notes should be logged
Back 2 Basics

FY2024
BACK 2 BASICS
Instructor Guide
into TRUSCOPE.
Note: Discuss any additional local procedures for conducting rounds.
B. Rounds During Lock Down Status in the Housing Unit
Per policy, when inmates are in lock down status, rounds must be conducted at least once in
the first 30 minute period of the hour (example, 12:00 a.m. - 12:30 a.m.) followed by another
round in the second 30 minute period of the same hour (example, 12:30 a.m. - 1:00 a.m.). This
ensures that an inmate is observed at least twice per hour. These rounds are to be conducted
on an irregular schedule and no more than forty (40) minutes apart.
Note: Clearly define lock down status as applicable to housing units during normal
operations.
VIII. ACTIVITY #2 - CONDUCTING ROUNDS IN THE HOUSING UNIT
Note: Distribute the worksheet for Activity #2 - Conducting Rounds in the Housing Unit, one
per group. Facilitate the activity using the instructor notes provided. Upon completion,
continue instruction.
IX. CONDUCTING FIRE AND SECURITY CHECKS
Each detail supervisor or departmental employee will conduct a daily security and fire
inspection of their assigned area. The result of these inspections will be submitted on your
local Daily or Weekly Security and Fire Inspection Report. Employees will use TRUSCOPE to log
in the time conducted and findings, if applicable.
The areas listed on the Daily Security and Fire Inspection Report should be completed at the
conclusion of each manned shift.
Knowledge Check: When should the Daily Fire and Security Checks be conducted?
Note: Provide any feedback and/or procedures for your local facility.
A. Fire and Security Inspection Report, Daily
While managing a housing unit, you will be expected to perform the fire and security inspection
in accordance with outlined procedures. Upon completion of the inspection, you will document
your findings in TRUSCOPE noting any discrepancies found, along with the action taken to
address the problem. If the discrepancy is considered significant or major, you will contact the
Lieutenant's office immediately.
Note: Refer to the Participant Manual for the Daily Fire and Security Inspection Report.

Discuss how to document findings once the inspection is completed.
B. Security Work Orders/Requests
If you find a safety or sanitation issue which requires corrective action, you should note the
problem on the form and submit a written work request to get the problem fixed.
Note: Identify the location of the work order form and the local procedures for submission.
C. Memoranda
A memorandum is used to document safety issues encountered during your checks.
Discussion: Who should receive a copy of this memorandum?
X. ACTIVITY #3 - CONDUCTING FIRE AND SECURITY CHECKS
Note: Distribute the worksheet for Activity #3 - Conducting Rounds in the Housing Unit, one
(1) per group. Facilitate the activity using the instructor notes provided. Upon completion,
continue instruction.
XI. CONDUCTING SEARCHES OF THE HOUSING UNIT
A. Searches of the Housing Unit
The inspection of a housing unit is primarily designed to detect contraband, prevent escapes,
maintain sanitation standards, and to eliminate fire and safety hazards. Frequent and irregular
searches should be conducted of all inmate living areas to include:
Cells
Cubicles
Storage rooms
Supply rooms
Common areas
Plumbing accesses
Walls
Plumbing fixtures
Showers, to include drains
Additional locations not mentioned above
The employee assigned to the area will be responsible for noting the date, time, results, and
name of searching employee according to local procedures. Searches of the inmate living areas
will be conducted frequently and properly documented in TRUSCOPE.
Back 2 Basics

Managing Housing Units, Part I
EFTA00035860

=== Page 14 ===
FY2024
BACK 2 BASICS
Instructor Guide
Note: Identify how searches of the housing unit should be documented at your local facility.
Approaches to conduct searches in all areas of the housing unit include:
1. Visual
A visual inspection must be conducted inside the unit for items such as bent or spread bars,
broken welds, cracked or cut bars, and any sign of steel filings. Any other evidence of
tampering or weakness such as fresh paint or discolored areas is to be thoroughly investigated.
2. Bar Tapping
Accurate bar taps call for the use of a mallet to tap security bars and frames to set up vibrations
which, by their deviation from normal sound, would indicate tampering or weakness. All
housing unit bars within the institution will be tapped weekly, and this information should be
recorded accordingly.
Note: Discuss procedures for recording bar taps at your local institution.
3. Metal Instrument
A thin instrument such a putty knife can be passed along frames or bars to locate cuts or
depressions which might indicate tampering. The instrument can also be used as a probe to
uncover cuts filled with soap, putty, or other substances.
Knowledge Check: How often are bar taps completed?
Note: Explain the location and/or procedures for obtaining tools used for conducting
searches.
4. Mirror
A mirror is an effective instrument for examining areas that would ordinarily be difficult to
inspect. A mirror may be used to inspect any area that ordinarily would be difficult to observe
during a routine visual inspection.
Knowledge Check: What areas in the housing units are best searched using a mirror?
B. Searches of Inmate Cells
Employees may search an inmate's housing area and any personal items contained within an
area, without prior notice, inmate approval, or inmate's presence. An inmate will be removed
from the cell and searched prior to the cell search. When conducting the cell search, all items
Back 2 Basics
14
Managing Housing Units, Part I
EFTA00035861

=== Page 15 ===
FY2024
BACK 2 BASICS
Instructor Guide
in the cell should be carefully searched and, as nearly as possible, returned to their original
order upon completion.
When conducting a cell search, particular attention must be paid to the following:
Plumbing facilities
Ventilation ducts
Beds
Bedding
Chairs
Commissary items
Books
Additional items/locations not mentioned above
False shoe bottoms, secret compartments and hollow legs are possibilities for concealing
contraband.
Discussion: What are some other common areas for concealing contraband that have not
been mentioned?
The employee searching the cell will be responsible for noting the date, time, inmate's name,
inmate's register number, cell/room number, results, and name of searching employee in
TRUSCOPE.
Identify how cell searches should be documented at your local facility.
C. Contraband
Here are only a few items of contraband and locations it may be commonly found in the
housing units:
Cell phones hidden in doors
Cell phones hidden inside of soda cans
Cell phones hidden in soap
Cigarettes hidden in all areas of inmate cells
Tattoo Kits hidden in soda cans
Contraband safes made out of Ramen Noodles
Handcuff Keys made from inhalers
Homemade intoxicants in all areas of the housing units
Homemade tobacco pipes
Officer safety items hidden as contraband
Secret contraband storage spaces
Shanks created from printer cartridges

Tobacco and other items hidden in Bibles
Note: Discuss additional contraband items and locations.
When conducting searches of inmates, housing units, and cells, it is important to be familiar
with items inmates may and may not have. When in doubt, you can refer to the local
Commissary List and/or the Inmate Personal Property List. You may also ask the inmate to
provide a receipt of purchased items.
Note: Inform participants to refer to the local Commissary Sheet and/or Inmate Personal
Property List in the Participant Manual as needed.
Knowledge Check: What would you do if you found an item you suspected was contraband
but wasn't completely sure?
1. Areas Approved for Inmate Property Storage
Inmates in the general population housing units will be issued specific locations for the storage
of personal property, for example, lockers. Items authorized outside of the areas may include
items such as:
One (1) mesh laundry bag
Footwear
Issued clothing
Property storage may not be in offices of the unit team or the correctional supervisor except in
temporary, emergency situations.
Note: Discuss specific locations in your location for property storage. Discuss any special
instructions (e.g., shoes should be stored under the bunks).
2. Confiscation and Disposal of Contraband
Confiscated contraband will be disposed of in accordance with institution procedures.
Exceptions from these procedures can only be made upon written authorization of the Warden
or his designee.
Note: Discuss local procedures for recovering contraband. Include procedures for
excess property
hard contraband
cash or negotiable instruments
postage stamps

XII. ACTIVITY #4 - CONDUCTING SEARCHES OF THE HOUSING UNITS AND INMATE CELLS
Note: Distribute the worksheet for Activity #4 - Conducting Searches of the Housing Units
and Inmate Cells, one (1) per group. Facilitate the activity using the instructor notes
provided. Upon completion, continue instruction.
XIII. CONDUCTING BED BOOK AUDITS
Knowledge Check: When should employees conduct a bed book audit?
Note: Allow participants to provide feedback. Provide feedback for your local facility.
A minimum of one (1) bed book audit will be conducted every 24-hour period to ensure the
accuracy of inmate assignments.
Note: Provide information on where/how the Bed Book is retrieved/located at your local
facility.
The Bed Book contains the following information for each inmate:
Inmate's name
Register number
Cell location
Job assignment
Custody level
Any additional information (e.g., medical information)
Bed Book Cards are strictly confidential and should never be viewed by inmates.
A. Procedures for Conducting a Bed Book Count
At least two (2) employees will conduct bed book audits. Inmates must be positively identified
using printed pictures, by asking the inmates to state both their name and register number.
Both employees must agree the inmate matches the picture, name, and register number on the
bed book card. Inmates must also be in their assigned cell as documented in the bed book and
unit SENTRY roster.
The first employee will carry the SENTRY roster while the second employee will carry the Bed
Book picture roster. Upon completing count, both officers verify all inmates are present,
compare the numbers with each of the counting employee, and identify any inmates not

present in the housing unit.
Note: Discuss local procedures for conducting a Bed Book Count.
Employees will then call Control Center and verify this information.
B. Updating an Inmate's Picture Card
Discussion: What issues warrant the update of a picture card?
When conducting a Bed Book count, you may discover that an inmate has changed their
physical appearance. If this is the case, the following standard operating procedures should
occur:
1. Find correct inmate Picture Card on file.
2. Write and submit a memorandum to the Unit Team requesting a new picture be taken and
explain why.
3. Use reverse side of Picture Card to note changes in the inmate's physical appearance.
4. Return Picture Card file to proper secure location.
Knowledge Check: Who can request the update of a picture card?
Any employee can submit the request for an inmate's picture card to be updated. The same
procedures mentioned above will apply to any employee submitting the request.
1. Locate inmate's Picture Card.
2. Record information from inmate's Picture Card into assigned bed/cell slot in unit Bed Book.
3. File inmate's Picture Card with your unit cards.
XIV. SUMMARY
In summary, managing a housing unit has many complex duties and responsibilities. The Back
to Basics training program has been designed to revisit those fundamental tasks that depend on
the overall safety and security of the institution as a whole.

UNITED STATES GOVERNMENT
BUREAU OF
MEMORANDUM
Metropolitan Correctional Center, New York, New York
DATE:
April 15 2019
TO:
Warden, MCC New York
FROM:
Chief Psychologist, MCC New York
THRU:
Associate Warden, Programs, MCC New York
SUBJECT:
RESUBMITTAL OF PROCEDURAL MEMORANDUM FOR
PSYCHOLOGICAL OBSERVATION
The original Procedural memorandum for Psychological Observation was initially submitted on July 20,
2005 to the Warden and through the Associate Warden of Programs. The procedures outlined below
have been in effect since the aforementioned date. This memorandum is being resubmitted as revisions
have been made since this period of time and updated signatures are necessary.
1.
PURPOSE: To establish procedures at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC),
New York with regard to inmates placed on Psychological Observation status.
2.
DEFINITION: A Psychological Observation occurs when an inmate who suffers from a
mental illness, a serious personality disorder, a medical problem (impairing their mental
status), or drug intoxication and/or withdrawal symptoms begins to deteriorate. The inmate
is no longer mentally stable and therefore, it is inappropriate for s/he to remain in general
population or the Special Housing Unit (SHU). Inmates placed on psychological
observation differ from inmates placed on suicide watch as they are not imminently suicidal
(e.g., have not expressed self-harm or engaged in self-harming behavior), but rather, due to
his/her impairment in mental status or functioning (e.g., not eating, not sleeping,
disorganized/unusual thinking, poor self-care), his/her behavior can be unpredictable.
Psychological Observation status is intended as a temporary designation to be utilized until
such time as the inmate becomes sufficiently stable (e.g., able to function independently in
general population) to be returned to his/her housing assignment or transferred to an
inpatient psychiatric facility such as a Federal Medical Center.
3.
PROCEDURES: The following are the guidelines for a Psychological Observation:
A. Only a member from the Psychology Services Department may place and remove an
inmate from Psychological Observation status as only a psychologist can determine if an
inmate is at elevated risk for suicide or not. Upon placement or removal of Psychological
Observation, the Psychologist will notify the Operations Lieutenant, Health Services Staff
(i.e., Physician Assistants, Health Services Administrator, and Clinical Director), Food
Service Administrator, and Duty Officer.
B. Psychological Observations will be conducted in the suicide watch area or when not
feasible due to space limitations, one of the designated suicide watch cells in SHU. The
inmate on observation will be continuously monitored by either an Inmate Companion or a
EFTA00035330

=== Page 2 ===
staff member.
C. An inmate on Psychological Observation status is allowed only items indicated by a
Psychologist. These items will be indicated on the inmate's psychological observation log
book. The suicide watch mattress and suicide watch blanket will be used for all inmates on
psychological observation.
D. Log entries as to the behavior of the observed inmate will ideally be made every 15
minutes in a marble log book by the Inmate Companion or staff member, but observation of
the inmate is continuous.
E. When the observation is conducted in the suicide watch room, the Unit 2 Officer will
make hourly rounds and sign the log book.
F. A Lieutenant and Physician Assistant will also make rounds once a shift and sign the log
book.
G. On a daily basis a Psychologist will assess the inmate on Psychological Observation and
sign the log book.
H. If there is a staff watch being conducted on 9S, the staff member cannot watch more than
two inmates on psychological observation at a time. If the Staff member is watching two
inmates on psychological observation, they must be directly next to one another so that the
officer can directly observe both of them on a continuous basis.

As I was doing the 10:00 PM count, I notice this inmate distraught, sad and a little confused. I asked him if he was ok? he
said, "that he's ok." but I am not convinced because he seems dazed and withdrawn. So just to be on the safe side
and prevent any suicidal thoughts can someone from Psychology come and talk with him. I don't know the inmate register
number because he is new, he is currently on 5 North. I don't know who did his in take, so I am not familiar with
any information on this inmate.

The National Suicide Prevention Coordinator from Central Office,
contacted me today about Epstein. He thought
that housing him with another sex offender in SHU would be a good idea. I told him I would speak with the executive staff
about his suggestion. Also,
thought it wise that we keep him down here for a bit (as is the plan already).
I am heading to the hospital in about a half an hour or so. If you need me for anything, feel free to call my cell phone
Thank you.

I visited inmate Epstein in SHU on Thursday. He was getting ready to meet with his attorneys for the day so I had gone to visit him
right after the SHU meeting. He had a cell mate at the time with whom I saw him interact with. He did not report any mental health
concerns and he denied any suicidal thoughts or intention. He was asking this writer to go to general population and was making
requests for various needs he had at the time. He wanted social calls without them being on a speaker phone. He wanted a book he
had left in the suicide watch area. His mood was not depressed or anxious. There were no signs of distress. He had planned on
meeting with his attorneys to work on his legal situation.

The Material Handler said the SHU was not his regular post and he had not attended SHU training, but he
had worked in the SHU approximately 10 to 20 times. According to the Material Handler, on August 9 he
reported for a voluntary overtime shift from 12:00 a.m. to 8:00 a.m. and then worked his regular 8:00 a.m.
to 4:00 p.m. shift in the warehouse. At some point during the day shift, the Day Watch Operations
Lieutenant called and asked the Material Handler if he could work overtime in the SHU, and he agreed. The
Material Handler said he worked the 4:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. shift in the SHU with the Evening Watch SHU
Officer in Charge and Noel. The Material Handler told the OIG that he felt pressured to work the third shift,
which resulted in him working 24 hours straight, from 12:00 a.m. on August 9 through 12:00 a.m. on August
10. After the Evening Watch SHU Officer in Charge left at 10:00 p.m., the Material Handler and Noel were
the only employees working in the SHU from 10:00 p.m. to 12:00 a.m. The Material Handler recalled that
Epstein came back to the SHU from meeting with his attorneys at approximately 8:00 p.m., which was later
than the rest of the inmates, and was returned to his cell on L Tier. After the Material Handler and Noel
gave Epstein his food, the Material Handler said they left the L Tier area. The Material Handler said Epstein
was alone in his cell, but he was unaware that Epstein needed a cellmate.

2.
The 10:00 p.m. SHU Count on August 9
At the time of the 10:00 p.m. count, all inmates in the MCC New York SHU, including Epstein, were locked in
their cells for the night. At or around that time, the two officers assigned to the SHU were responsible for
conducting the 10:00 p.m. stand up count. At 10:00 p.m. on August 9, the two assigned SHU officers were
and the Material Handler. Through review and analysis of the SHU security camera video, witness
statements, and BOP records, the OIG determined that MCC New York staff did not perform the 10:00 p.m.
count in the SHU. 34 Nonetheless,
and the Material Handler completed and signed the 10:00 p.m. SHU
count slip. The 10:00 p.m. SHU count slip listed the total number of inmates as "73+1." According to the
MCC New York master count sheet for the 10:00 p.m. count on August 9, 2019, all units had verbally
reported their inmate counts to the Control Center by 10:30 p.m.³⁵ At approximately 10:36 p.m., the Control
Center completed all paperwork and officially cleared the 10:00 p.m. institutional count.
The Material Handler said he was present at the time of the 10:00 p.m. count, but that the count was not
conducted because everyone was tired. The Material Handler noted that on August 9, he had worked an
overtime shift from 12:00 a.m. until 8:00 a.m., his regular shift from 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., followed by his
SHU overtime shift from 4:00 p.m. to midnight. Thus, at the time of the 10:00 p.m. count, he had worked 22
consecutive hours at MCC New York. The Material Handler verified that he and Noel signed the 10:00 p.m.
count slip, and believed that Noel called the Control Center with their count numbers. He did not know why
the count slip listed "73 + 1".
34 The quality of the SHU video footage was poor. Therefore, in conjunction with reviewing the video, the OIG analyzed
witness statements and BOP records to better determine what the video depicted.
35 The official name for the document used to record an institutional count is "Bureau of Prisons Count Sheet."

1.
Failure to Conduct Rounds and Inmate Counts in the SHU
Federal regulations require that employees "use official time in an honest effort to perform official duties.
Additionally, BOP standards of conduct required that employees "[c]onduct themselves in a manner that
fosters respect for the Bureau of Prisons, the Department of Justice, and the U.S. Government." Because
"[i]nattention to duty in a correctional environment can result in escapes, assaults, and other incidents," BOP
standards of conduct also require employees "to remain fully alert and attentive during duty hours." BOP
policy also requires "[c]ontinuous inmate accountability," which is accomplished through rounds and inmate
counts.⁶ Among other things, rounds and inmate counts enable staff to observe inmates and ensure that
they are safe and secure in their cells and are in good health.
BOP policy and MCC New York SHU Post Orders set out the requirements for these inmate accountability
measures, specifying that correctional staff must conduct rounds on an irregular schedule at least twice
each hour, no more than 40 minutes apart. BOP policy and MCC New York SHU Post Orders further specify
that at least two MCC New York SHU staff members must conduct inmate counts at 12:00 a.m., 3:00 a.m.,
5:00 a.m., 4:00 p.m., and 10:00 p.m. daily, and also at 10:00 a.m. on weekends and federal holidays.
The OIG's investigation and review revealed that an inmate (Inmate 4) was internally transferred from the
SHU to Receiving and Discharge at approximately 3:15 p.m. on August 9, 2019; however, this inmate transfer
was not documented until approximately 12:35 a.m. on August 10, 2019. Based on this internal transfer,
BOP records, and witness statements, the OIG determined that the 4:00 p.m. and 10:00 p.m. SHU inmate
counts on August 9 were erroneous. In addition, the OIG reviewed the available SHU security camera video,
which did not show correctional officers walking up or down the stairs leading to the various SHU tiers
during the count times, a process that is necessary to conduct an accurate count of inmates.⁶¹ During their
OIG interviews,
the Material Handler
each admitted that they did not conduct all of the mandatory
rounds and inmate counts in the SHU on the evening of August 9 and the morning of August 10.
The OIG did not crediti

on:
65 5 C.F.R. § 2635.705(a); see also 5 C.F.R. § 2635.101(b)(5).
66 BOP Program Statement 3420.11.
67 BOP Program Statement 5500.14.
68 As discussed in Chapter 5, OIG found that the security camera video was of low quality. Therefore, the OIG analyzed
the video in conjunction with BOP records and witness statements regarding the personnel in the SHU and their
activities.

Limited Official Use Only-Not for Public Release
and (4) the Material Handler's
statement to the OIG that no one conducted the 10:00 p.m. count because everyone was tired.
Instead of performing the required duties to account for inmate whereabouts and wellbeing, the OIG found
that officers assigned to the SHU on August 9 and 10, including the Material Handler,
primarily remained seated in the SHU Officers' Station-sometimes without moving for a period of time,
suggesting that they were asleep-and conducted a variety of internet searches on MCC New York
computers.
The
OIG's analysis of the SHU security camera video revealed that after approximately 10:40 p.m., no
Correctional Officer entered Epstein's tier in the SHU until just before 6:30 a.m.
The OIG investigation and review concluded that
the Material
Handler,
failed to conduct the mandatory rounds and inmate counts during their
respective shifts in the MCC New York SHU on August 9 and 10, 2019, and that their actions constituted
violations of 5 C.F.R. §§ 2635.101(b)(5) and 2635.705(a), BOP Program Statements 3420.11 and 5500.14, and
MCC New York SHU Post Orders.
2.
False Statements and Lack of Candor
The OIG's investigation and review found that on August 9 and 10, 2019
the Material Handler
made false statements when they falsified BOP records by
attesting that they had completed the mandatory rounds and inmate counts when, in fact, they had not.
Federal law provides that "whoever, in any matter within the jurisdiction of the executive branch of the
Government of the United States, knowingly and willfully makes or uses any false writing or document
knowing the same to contain any materially false, fictitious, or fraudulent statement or entry" has violated
18 U.S.C. § 1001(a)(3).
As discussed above, the OIG found that
the Material Handler,
failed to conduct all of the mandatory rounds and inmate counts. As part of each
institutional inmate count, BOP policy and MCC New York SHU Post Orders require two correctional officers
to conduct each count and memorialize the number of inmates in the SHU on an official MCC New York
form, often called a count slip.69 On the count slip, both correctional officers are required to fill in the date
and time the count had been performed, write the total number of inmates physically present in the unit
counted, and then sign the count slip. Once the correctional officers complete and sign the count slips, the
count slips are then collected and delivered to the MCC New York Control Center. Officers assigned to the
Control Center are responsible for comparing the count slips from each housing unit to the institution's
overall inmate count sheet to ensure that each inmate was accounted for.⁷⁰ Only after all the count slips
have been collected from each housing unit, and the numbers on the count slips had been matched to the
69 This BOP form is officially entitled "Metropolitan Correctional Center; New York, New York; Official Count Slip."
70 The official name for the document used to record an institutional count is "Bureau of Prisons Count Sheet."

institution's overall inmate count sheet, could the institutional count be deemed "cleared" or completed.
the Material Handler,
each prepared and/or
signed a false count slip to create the impression that they had fulfilled their inmate accountability
responsibilities when, in fact, they had not.⁷¹ These individuals admitted to the OIG that instead of
performing their assigned duties, they pre-filled the count slips with the number of inmates they believed
were in the SHU based on what officers from the previous shift had told them and signed off on the
documents knowing that they falsely attested to having completed the counts.
The U.S. Attorney's Office of the Southern District of New York
declined prosecution for
and the Material Handler.
The OIG investigation has found that
the Material Handler,
knowingly and willingly falsified BOP records in violation of federal law by attesting that they
had completed the mandatory rounds and inmate counts on the evening of August 9, 2019, and morning of
August 10, 2019.
Additionally, as noted above, BOP policy requires employees to cooperate fully with an official investigation
and truthfully respond to questions.
3.
Poor Judgment Regarding the Use of Overtime
The Material Handler told the OIG that on August 9 he reported for a voluntary overtime shift from 12:00
a.m. to 8:00 a.m. and then worked his regular 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. shift in the warehouse.
71
and the Material Handler
signed the 10:00 p.m. count slip;

The Material Handler told the OIG
that he felt pressured to work the third shift, which resulted in him working 24 hours straight, from 12:00
a.m. on August 9 through 12:00 a.m. on August 10. As discussed previously, the Material Handler admitted
to the OIG that on the evening of August 9, during his third shift which he worked in the SHU, he did not
conduct the mandatory inmate counts and rounds because he was too tired.

6.
The BOP should develop and implement a plan to address staffing shortages at its prisons.
Since at least 2015, the OIG has repeatedly found the need for BOP to address staffing shortages, including
medical staffing shortages.⁸⁴ This investigation and review revealed the direct impact of staffing deficiencies
on inmate safety. For example, the Material Handler worked three consecutive shifts-24 hours straight-
on August 9, 2019, which was certainly a contributory cause to the lack of adequate means of accounting for
inmate location and wellbeing in the SHU. The Material Handler told the OIG that no one did the 10:00 p.m.
SHU inmate count because they were tired.

With apologies for the weekend email, we have a defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, who was arrested last night and is c
urrently being detained at MCC, and is expected to be presented on an indictment tomorrow. His attorney, Marti
n Weinberg, has represented him in the past, and represents him in connection with our case and has been in touc
h with us throughout the weekend. He went to MCC today to meet with him in advance of the presentment tomo
rrow, but was just told he is not allowed in because he is from out-of-state.
We're concerned about the defendant not having access to his attorney in advance of the presentment (as we woul
d be for any defendant) and so I wanted to reach out to you-
is it at all possible to address this issue so Mr. Weinberg can meet with his client this evening? I'm available anyt
ime a
to discuss, if that's helpful, or Mr. Weinberg can also be reached directly at
if that's easier (though if you reach out directly to him if you could please just let me know afterward I'd be
grateful).
thanks very much,

Good afternoon,
Mr. Epstein Reg. 76318-054 arrived here at MCC New York on 7/6/2019 at 9:24 PM, he was placed in Special housing unit
until we can better evaluate him and find suitable housing for him. Today he was arraigned in court and upon his arrival will
be seen by Psychology and they will conduct a suicide risk assessment with this inmate when he returns from court. Should
he return from court and psychology is gone for the day, he is to go on PSYCHOLOGICAL OBSERVATION unless, of course, he
reports he is suicidal. In that case, he is to go on Suicide Watch.
There has been a few media inquires via phone calls however no information given. Media was staged around the back side
of our building and in front of the court house which is less then 100 yards apart from each other.
If you should have any additional questions and or concerns please feel free to contact me.

I just got off the phone with Central Office and they are recommending we conduct a suicide risk
assessment with this inmate when he returns from court. Should he return from court and psychology is
gone for the day, he is to go on PSYCHOLOGICAL OBSERVATION unless, of course, he reports he is
suicidal. In that case, he is to go on Suicide Watch. Inmate Epstein will likely be receiving bad news in
court today and has multiple risk factors for suicidality as identified by BOP statistics. Let's be
proactive.
"This writer consulted with Dr.
,
Central Office, regarding inmate Epstein. Inmate Epstein
has various risk factors for suicidality including a high profile case with media attention, sex offense
charges, pre-trial status, and a court proceeding today which could potentially be giving him bad news
regarding his legal situation. As such, when inmate Epstein returns from court, R&D staff as well as
Lieutenant's have been informed to immediately notify the psychology department. If he returns after
duty hours, the aforementioned staff were instructed to notify the on-call psychologist and to place
inmate Epstein on a watch status until psychology can conduct a thorough suicide risk assessment."

MEMORANDUM FOR
FROM:
SUBJECT:
Retention, Recruitment, and Relocation Incentive
Requests for MDC Brooklyn and MCC New York
A group retention incentive of 10% and recruitment and
relocation incentive of 25% is being requested for MDC Brooklyn
and MCC New York.
The use of incentives assists the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) in
retaining highly qualified and experienced staff who routinely
consider leaving the agency and for attracting highly qualified
applicants.
Hiring activity reports for all positions advertised for MDC
Brooklyn and MCC New York between Fiscal Years 2016-2018
document the following:
Fiscal Year 2016, 229 applicants were referred by CSU to
fill 85 positions. Only 69 were selected for positions.
Fiscal Year 2017, 47 applicants were referred by CSU to fill
40 positions. Only 12 were selected for positions.
Fiscal Year 2018, 82 applicants were referred by CSU to fill
75 positions. Only 12 were selected for positions.
EFTA00036099

=== Page 2 ===
The remaining applicants referred for each period listed
above either failed pre-employment testing or exceeded
hiring guidelines.
MDC Brooklyn's and MCC New York's staffing levels are among the
lowest in the agency. Currently, their vacancy rate is 12.12%
and 15.5% respectively. This is a 7% increase from the previous
year. MDC Brooklyn and MCC New York continue to experience
difficulty retaining and recruiting qualified employees. Since
2017, MDC Brooklyn and MCC New York lost 43 and 30 positions
respectively. Responses compiled through the Exit Survey
supports reasons for why staff are electing to leave this
location: urban location of the institutions and lack of
competitive salary compared to other law enforcement agencies in
New York City. Additionally, FCI Otisville, located 62 miles
from MDC Brooklyn and MCC New York, offers the same salary
despite being a lower security institution in a rural setting.
Since 2016, MDC Brooklyn and MCC New York has extended retention
incentives to health services staff occupying hard-to-fill
medical positions and lieutenants, which resulted in the
successful recruitment and retention of staff in those
occupations. If this retention request of 10% for all eligible
employees and recruitment/relocation request of 25% is approved,
it may deter current employees from leaving MDC Brooklyn and MCC
New York and may assist with attracting other employees to these
facilities.
REQUEST APPROVED:

Hi
I just received a copy of MCC New York's UST NOV issued 07-15-2019. Attached.
I also spoke with
He's working to address the NOV.
enrolled to obtain Class A & B UST Operator status
within the next two weeks. Once he's been designated as the Class A & B Operator he should be able to assume the role of a
Class c Operator as well. He's checking with the NY Department of Environmental Conservation to make sure. As a back up
plan,
(Facilities Manager, Brooklyn) and
(General Foreman, Brooklyn) are Class A & B Operators and
may be able to temporarily fill that role for MCC New York.
Please place this NOV in procedure 009 and use the EMS to document the institution's corrective actions. Don't forget to
establish a "flow" by holding an EMS Committee Meeting to create UST Class A,B & C Operators objectives and targets (003)
and a detailed Environmental Management Plan (EMP) to address training (004), documentation, reporting and record-
keeping (005, 006..). You may need to work with
to draft a new Operational Control (007) to ensure continued
compliance in the future (002, 008, 010, 011).
Please keep me informed of developments. I'll continue to follow up.
Let me know you need anything.

I am working with IPPA to finalize the press release (1st draft attached). Can you please give me answers to the below:
(1) Has Epstein's next of kin been notified? No.
(2) Did staff initiate life-saving measures when they first found Epstein at approximately 6:30 am in his cell? Yes.
(3) Did EMS or some sort of hospital staff come out to the institution, and if so, did they initiate life-saving measures at the
institution? And did EMS drive Epstein to the hospital or did BOP drive him to the hospital? EMS arrived at the institution
and BOP staff along with EMS transported the inmate to the local hospital.
(4) Was Epstein pronounced dead by EMS (transporting folks) or instead hospital staff at 7:30 am at the hospital? No.
Epstein was pronounced dead at the local hospital at approximately 7:36 am.
(5) Was the FBI notified? Is it being investigated as a suicide? Yes. FBI was notified.
(6) What date did he first arrive at MCC NY on his PP37? July 6, 2019.
(7) What are his specific offense titles for which he is indicted? I believe generally the news calls it sex trafficking, but we
should be as specifically accurate based on Sentry (or the court order if we have it). Sex Trafficking Conspiracy and Sex
Trafficking of Minors.

How can she refuse to do work. IF she doesn't feel competent enough to do something, she should not be working her...
so we have to teach for her and now we have to do this also...

Importance: Normal
Attachments: TEXT.htm; Press_Release_-_MCC_New_York.docx
I am working with IPPA to finalize the press release (1st draft attached). Can you please give me answers to the below:
(1) Has Epstein's next of kin been notified?
(2) Did staff initiate life-saving measures when they first found Epstein at approximately 6:30 am in his cell?
(3) Did EMS or some sort of hospital staff come out to the institution, and if so, did they initiate life-saving measures at the
institution? And did EMS
drive Epstein to the hospital or did BOP drive him to the hospital?
(4) Was Epstein pronounced dead by EMS (transporting folks) or instead hospital staff at 7:30 am at the hospital?
(5) Was the FBI notified? Is it being investigated as a suicide?
(6) What date did he first arrive at MCC NY on his PP37?
(7) What are his specific offense titles for which he is indicted? I believe generally the news calls it sex trafficking, but we
should be as specifically accurate based on Sentry (or the court order if we have it).
Thanks,

Dear Judge Berman:
I am writing in regards to your August 12, 2019 inquiry whether the investigations referenced in my

I can confirm that, although an internal investigation was completed regarding the July 23, 2019

I cannot divulge any information about the prior investigation at this time.
Thank you for your time and attention to this matter. If you have any questions or concerns, please
feel free to call me at (646)836-7700.

Some changes were made and this is the latest. Please review and provide answers to the below - thanks.
Forwarded message
(1) Has Epstein's next of kin been notified?
(2) Did staff initiate life-saving measures when they first found Epstein at approximately 6:30 am in his cell?
(3) Did EMS or some sort of hospital staff come out to the institution, and if so, did they initiate life-saving measures at the
institution? And did EMS drive Epstein to the hospital or did BOP drive him to the hospital?
(4) Was Epstein pronounced dead by EMS (transporting folks) or instead hospital staff at 7:30 am at the hospital?
(5) Was the FBI notified? Is it being investigated as a suicide?
(6) What date did he first arrive at MCC NY on his PP37?
(7) What are his specific offense titles for which he is indicted? I believe generally the news calls it sex trafficking, but we
should be as specifically accurate based on Sentry (or the court order if we have it).

Yes, I already went back there but he was in the shower. As soon as he is done showering and dressed, I will go back there
again. I wanted to assess that psych obs is still ok... Central Office Psych was concerned I stepped him down to psych obs
rather than keeping him on SW. I gave my justification and feel it is appropriate, but I just want to make sure I still feel that
way when he is interviewed today. I will be in touch this morning.

With apologies for the weekend email, we have a defendant, Jeffrey Epstein, who was arrested last night and is c
urrently being detained at MCC, and is expected to be presented on an indictment tomorrow. His attorney, Marti
n Weinberg, has represented him in the past, and represents him in connection with our case and has been in touc

h with us throughout the weekend. He went to MCC today to meet with him in advance of the presentment tomo
rrow, but was just told he is not allowed in because he is from out-of-state.
We're concerned about the defendant not having access to his attorney in advance of the presentment (as we woul
d be for any defendant) and so I wanted to reach out to you-
is it at all possible to address this issue so Mr. Weinberg can meet with his client this evening? I'm available anyt

if that's easier (though if you reach out directly to him if you could please just let me know afterward I'd be
grateful).
thanks very much,

SUBJECT:
Possible Suicide Attempt
On July 23, 2019 at approx. 1:27 a.m., a call for assistance on the Special Housing Unit
was announced by the Control Center. Upon my arrival I was informed that an inmate
had attempted suicide and proceeded to cell, Z05-124LAD. I observed inmate
Epstein, Jeffrey #76318-054 lying in the fetal position on the floor of his cell wearing a
t-shirt and boxers. He was breathing heavily and was snoring. I called out to inmate
Epstein and observed him flicker his eyes and continue snoring. His neck was red
with no abrasions. I observed no further injuries to his person. An attempt was made
to get the inmate to stand on his own with negative results. The inmate was placed in
hand restraints and staff was directed to retrieve the stretcher. As inmate Epstein was
being placed on the stretcher by responding staff, he would open his eyes and observe
staff. When staff made eye contact with him, he would hurriedly shut his eyes. The
inmate was taken to HA-Unit, dressed in the suicide smock and placed on suicide
watch. While awaiting the arrival of an inmate companion, inmate Epstein sat on the
edge of the bed and began moving forward as if he was attempting to fall over head
first. When I looked away, he straightened up. As I turned to look at him again, he
attempted the same act. I laid him down on the bed and directed him to cease his
action or he would be placed in restraints for his safety. At that moment, he stated,
"Okay, I won't do it again," and gave the thumbs up. Because of his unpredictable
behavior, the decision was made to have a staff member observe inmate Epstein. I
left HA-Unit in order to make staff notifications. Moments later, I spoke with Officer
Clarke who stated that inmate Epstein was alert and had indicated that his cellmate,
Tartaglione, Nicholas #78514-054 had attempted to kill him and had been harassing
him. He stated that the inmate had indicated that he'd informed his attorney of this
matter.
I photographed and spoke with inmate Tartaglione, Nicholas #78514-054 who stated
that he was asleep with his headphones on when he felt something hit his legs and
said, "Jeff, what you're doing?" He didn't answer, so he got up, turned on the light and
saw him with a string around his neck. He stated that he then called the guards and

they ran down. Upon further questioning, inmate Tartaglione lated that he sleeps on
the bottom bunk, but gave it to inmate Epstein because he's old. He stated that he
sleeps on the floor on a mattress. He stated that when he got up, he couldn't
remember if he sat up or stood up to check on Epstein. He stated that Epstein was
sitting on the floor leaning to the side with his eyes opened, but wasn't responding. He
stated that the last time he saw him he was snoring really loud.
Inmate Epstein stated that he came in from a legal visit at approx. 8:00PM and staff
handed him a copy of the Daily News. "Nick" was on the floor reading the Daily News.
He stated that he had given it to him. He stated that Tartaglione mentioned that he'd
been in court all day in Westchester and was carrying on. At that point, inmate
Tartaglione paused as if he was making the story up as he went along, and stated that
Tartaglione stated, "These fucking niggers. This place is inhumane, I wish I could
report it.
(Officer), that nigger hobbit mother fucker." He then turned to a page in
the Daily News that had his picture on it and stated that Epstein was worth seventy
seven million dollars. Epstein stated that he took his picture, balled it up and threw it in
the garbage. I asked inmate Epstein what happened prior to staff's arrival. He stated
that at approx. 1:00 AM, he'd gotten up to get a drink of water, as he gets up every
thirty minutes. He remember walking back to his bunk and waking up with staff there
in his cell. I asked if he'd waken up and seen staff, why didn't he respond when we
were calling out to him? He stated that he only remembered hearing himself making a
noise like snoring. When asked about the allegations against his cellmate, he stated
that he was told, if he hurt him, staff wouldn't care.
Duty medical,
was notified and briefed. It was determined no further
medical attention was needed. A medical assessment was not conducted at the time
of this incident, due to the fact, there was no medical staff available after 10:00 PM.
Upon the arrival of medical staff, inmate Epstein was examined and treated by,
for a circular line of erythema at the base of the neck, one section on the front
with marks of friction and a small erythema on his left knee.

he sat up on the bed and began telling me that he think his Bunkie, Tartaglione, Nicholas
#78514-054 tried to kill him. Inmate Epstein also stated that his Bunkie also tried to extort
money from him and stated that if he didn't pay him that he would beat him up. He stated that
this has been going on for a week. I asked inmate Epstein if he told staff about this and he told
me no, that he'd only told his lawyer. He went on to say that his Bunkie told him that if he beat
him up, because of his charges, the officers would not report it and because of this he was not
comfortable telling the officers about the prolong threats and alleged attempts to extort him. I
immediately reported this to the lieutenant.

Hello,
Epstein is pending a Code 228, Tattooing or Self-Mutilation and I spoke with Dr.
who indicated that most likely he will be found
competent because he is not mentally ill. We have supporting memorandums from the responding officers who indicated they
observed inmate Epstein with a makeshift noose around his neck. Therefore, he will be pending a UDC hearing. Should he return to
SHU, he will be housed with inmate
Inmate
He is a
Pretrial inmate on a Supervised Release Violation for Failure to Register as Sex Offender. He is refusing to go to general
population.
The other inmates in SHU were reviewed for a possible cell mate, however, inmate
and
were determined the appropriate candidates as cell mates. However,
releases on July 26, 2019. He is also the current cell
mate of inmate
We are still reviewing cases in the general population for a possible cell mate.
If I haven't addressed your questions, please call me and let me know. Thanks.

Below is the definition of Psychological Observation provided by Dr.
Chief Psychologist. He
will remain on Psychological Observation until tomorrow, where he will be reassessed.
DEFINITION: A Psychological Observation occurs when an inmate who suffers from a mental illness, a serious personality
disorder, a medical problem (impairing their mental status), or drug intoxication and/or withdrawal symptoms begins to
deteriorate. The inmate is no longer mentally stable and therefore, it is inappropriate for s/he to remain in general
population or the Special Housing Unit (SHU). Inmates placed on psychological observation differ from inmates placed
on suicide watch as they are not imminently suicidal (e.g., have not expressed self-harm or engaged in self-harming
behavior), but rather, due to his/her impairment in mental status or functioning (e.g., not eating, not sleeping,
disorganized/unusual thinking, poor self-care), his/her behavior can be unpredictable. Psychological Observation status
is intended as a temporary designation to be utilized until such time as the inmate becomes sufficiently stable (e.g., able
to function independently in general population) to be returned to his/her housing assignment or transferred to an
inpatient psychiatric facility such as a Federal Medical Center.
He has a pending incident report for Self-Mutilation and therefore, he will return to the Special
Housing Unit (SHU) and will be celled with inmate

and rants, one of them targeting CNN. His case has been highly publicized and he is in SHU because

Hi
I hope this finds you well. My name is Christina Goldbaum and I'm a reporter with The New York Times. I'm sorry to reach out out of the
blue, but at NYT we are working on a story about MCC and what happened to Jeffrey Epstein. We're trying to learn a little more about the
prison and how it works internally (I hear there have been some issues with staffing, overtime etc), and I was wondering if you might be
free for a quick chat on background (meaning that I will not use your name in any article, or anything that could identify you). I'd just like to
learn a bit more about the prison itself -- there are a lot of rumors flying around, as you know, and we'd like to be able to speak in concrete
terms about the prison from people who know it best. Please let me know if you're free or give me a ring:
Thanks,
Christina

Thanks!
I'll let the Lt.s' know to move him.
7/28/2019 8:56 AM
Can you not just move him to another cell? He will not have lunch in Attorney Conference. He will go back to his cell to eat.
He knows this.

He also complained that he is in Attorney Conference from about 8 AM to about 8 PM each day and he said yesterday he onl
y received one meal, a sandwich at about 4:15 PM. He said he should be getting lunch and dinner.
Also additional information on the toilet that reportedly flushed for 45 minutes. He stated to avoid the toilet from doing that
again because he stated he found it so aversive and disorienting, he has been urinating in a cup. I already sent an e-
mail to Mr.
about the toilet.

Inmate Epstein seems psychologically stable.
He complained that his right arm was numb and hanging earlier. Nurse
saw him.
He again said his right arm still feels somewhat numb and he said he cannot make a fist with that hand. He also said he has nu
mbness on his neck. I informed Nurse
He stated the toilet in his cell was running for 45 minutes last night and he could not take the noise. He is going to try the toil

He is pending a Code 228, Tattooing or Self-Mutilation and I spoke with Dr.
who indicated that most likely he will be
found competent because he is not mentally ill. Therefore, he will be pending a UDC hearing. I am looking at the SHU
Roster now to see who can be a good cell mate.

This is the response I am sending the RD. Are you ok with this?
Below is the definition of Psychological Observation provided by Dr.
Chief Psychologist. He
will remain on Psychological Observation until tomorrow, where he will be reassessed.
DEFINITION: A Psychological Observation occurs when an inmate who suffers from a mental illness, a serious personality
disorder, a medical problem (impairing their mental status), or drug intoxication and/or withdrawal symptoms
begins to deteriorate. The inmate is no longer mentally stable and therefore, it is inappropriate for s/he to remain
in general population or the Special Housing Unit (SHU). Inmates placed on psychological observation differ
from inmates placed on suicide watch as they are not imminently suicidal (e.g., have not expressed self-harm or
engaged in self-harming behavior), but rather, due to his/her impairment in mental status or functioning (e.g.,
not eating, not sleeping, disorganized/unusual thinking, poor self-care), his/her behavior can be unpredictable.
Psychological Observation status is intended as a temporary designation to be utilized until such time as the
inmate becomes sufficiently stable (e.g., able to function independently in general population) to be returned to
his/her housing assignment or transferred to an inpatient psychiatric facility such as a Federal Medical Center.
EFTA00035383

=== Page 2 ===
He has a pending incident report for Self-Mutilation and therefore, he will return to the Special
Housing Unit (SHU) and will be celled with inmate
Inmate
pleaded guilty in March to mailing improvised explosive devices to 13 people,
including many prominent Democratic figures, among them former President Barack Obama, former
Vice President Joe Biden, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Sens. Cory Booker (N.J.) and
Kamala D. Harris (Calif.), as well as CNN. He drove around in a van festooned with political stickers
and rants, one of them targeting CNN. His case has been highly publicized and he is in SHU because
he requested Protective Custody.

To whom it may concern:
I am a freelance journalist based in Alabama. I am working on a piece about prison suicides and in light of the Jeffery Epstein
case, I'm wondering if you can provide me with current staffing levels at your facility?
Thanks very much. Feel free to email me back or call.
Sincerely,
Beth Shelburne

via their personal email. I will monitor this closely and I have already put out an email to all staff on the media and who are
the only approved staff that are allowed to speak to them. In addition the Warden held a recall today expressing the
concerns if staff are sharing information and how it is prohibited. Please let me know your thoughts.

Hi
I hope this finds you well. My name is Christina Goldbaum and I'm a reporter with The New York Times. I'm sorry to reach out
out of the blue, but at NYT we are working on a story about MCC and what happened to Jeffrey Epstein. We're trying to learn
a little more about the prison and how it works internally (I hear there have been some issues with staffing, overtime etc), and
I was wondering if you might be free for a quick chat on background (meaning that I will not use your name in any article, or
anything that could identify you). I'd just like to learn a bit more about the prison itself -- there are a lot of rumors flying
around, as you know, and we'd like to be able to speak in concrete terms about the prison from people who know it best.
Please let me know if you're free or give me a ring:
Thanks,
Christina

I saw him before his Legal visit. He seems stable and is now at his Legal visit. I'll be coming in tomorrow before his Legal vi
sit to see him again.
He complained about being dehydrated because he stated he cannot drink enough water because of limited bathroom breaks i
n Legal since he stated he sees his Attorney for about 12 hours.
He also complained about having to go back up to SHU. Being anxious about it and not being able to sleep there because of
the noise of inmates banging and screaming at night.

MEMORANDUM FOR
ASSISTANT INSPECTOR GENERAL
INVESTIGATIONS DIVISION
FROM:
External Auditing Branch
SUBJECT:
Status Update to the Office of Inspector General's (OIG)
Final Report dated June 26, 2023: Investigation and Review of the Federal
Bureau of Prisons' Custody, Care, and Supervision of Jeffrey Epstein at the
Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, New York
The Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) appreciates the opportunity to provide a response to the Office
of the Inspector General's above referenced memorandum received on April 22, 2024. The FBOP has
completed its review of the analysis and offers the following status update regarding the analysis and
its recommendations.
Recommendation One: The BOP should implement a process for assigning a cellmate
following suicide watch or psychological observation, with criteria for exceptions based on the
particular individual or security considerations.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. In a previous update, the
BOP reported that RSD and CPD were collaborating on a memo to provide guidance to the field on a
process to ensure psychologists make recommendations regarding housing, including the presence of
a cellmate, for individuals in custody following suicide watch or psychological observation. The BOP
further reported that this process will include exemptions based on individual or security
considerations. The BOP has now indicated that this guidance has been drafted and is under review.
Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes
the guidance referenced in its update, and (2) provides the finalized guidance to the OIG for review.
EFTA00035907

=== Page 2 ===
FBOP's Response: The FBOP Reentry Services Division (RSD) and Correctional Programs
Division (CPD) have collaborated to draft guidance. This guidance is currently under review.
FBOP will provide further updates as the draft guidance is reviewed and approved as needed.
Recommendation Two: The BOP should establish procedures to ensure inmates at high risk for
suicide and for whom a cellmate is recommended will continue to have a cellmate until the
recommendation is changed or rescinded, including establishing a contingency plan for cellmate
re-assignment, with criteria for exceptions based on the particular individual or security
considerations.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. In a previous update,
the BOP reported that RSD and CPD were collaborating on a memo to provide guidance to the
field on procedures to ensure communication regarding the requirement of a cellmate for
individuals following suicide watch or psychological observation when recommended by a
psychologist. The BOP further reported that this memo will include a procedure for exemptions
based on individual or security considerations. The BOP has now indicated that guidance has
been drafted and is under review. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this
recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the guidance referenced in its update, and (2)
provides the finalized guidance to the OIG for review.
FBOP's Response: RSD and CPD have collaborated to draft guidance. This guidance is
currently under review. FBOP will provide further updates as the draft guidance is reviewed and
approved as needed.
Recommendation Three: The BOP should evaluate its current process for obtaining and
documenting approval for social or legal visits while an inmate is on suicide watch or
psychological observation, which allows for institution-specific variations in the process, and
provide guidance on standard components that each institution should include in its process to
mitigate security issues that can arise when an inmate is on suicide watch or psychological
observation.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. In a previous update,
the BOP reported that it was evaluating its process for obtaining and documenting approval for
social and/or legal visits while an inmate is on suicide watch or psychological observation. The
BOP has now reported that while it currently does not have guidance on these issues, new
guidance has been drafted and is under review. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to
close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the guidance referenced in its update, and
(2) provides the finalized guidance to the OIG for review.
FBOP's Response: RSD and CPD have collaborated to draft guidance. This guidance is
currently under review. FBOP will provide further updates as the draft guidance is reviewed and
approved as needed.
Recommendation Four: The BOP should evaluate its methods of accounting for inmate
whereabouts and wellbeing and make changes as may be appropriate to improve those methods
through policy, training, or other measures.
EFTA00035908

=== Page 3 ===
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. Accordingly, the OIG
will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the program
statement update referenced in its update; and (2) provides the finalized program statement to the
OIG for review.
FBOP's Response: Program Statement 5500.14, Correctional Services Procedures Manual, is
being modified to improve FBOP methods for accounting for inmate whereabouts and wellbeing.
Because revisions to Programs Statements must follow the normal FBOP development and
Union negotiation process, they are subject to change.
Recommendation Five: BOP policy should clarify what is required of a Lieutenant when
conducting a round.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. Accordingly, the OIG
will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the program
statement update referenced in its update; (2) provides the finalized program statement to the
OIG for review; and (3) provides a description of the training referenced in its update, sample
training materials for OIG to review, and confirmation that the training is in effect.
FBOP's Response: Program Statement 5500.14, Correctional Services Procedures Manual, is
being modified to clarify what is required of a Lieutenant when conducting a round. Because
revisions to Programs Statements must follow the normal FBOP development and Union
negotiation process, they are subject to change.
However, FBOP intends for the updated policy to include clarification for Lieutenants to conduct
trainings sessions, via in-person required rounds and shift briefings daily. These trainings will
cover topics such as cell searches, minor emergency mock discussions, and other correctional
services training needs as assessed by local correctional services supervisors. This will allow for
individual assessment and training to be tailored to the needs of each individual facility while
also remaining in conformance with current training requirements. Training topics and formats
will be documented on the Daily Lieutenant Logs and reviewed by the Captain to assess and
implement specific local correctional training needs. Therefore, although no specific training
curriculum will be developed, the training requirement and supervisory review will be in effect
with the issuance of the updated program statement.
Recommendation Six: The BOP should continue to develop and implement plans to address
staffing shortages at its prisons.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The OIG will continue
to monitor the BOP's progress regarding staffing shortages at its prisons. At the BOP's request,
the OIG will not consolidate this recommendation. In addition, per the OIG's communications
with the BOP over email, we believe that certain information that the BOP has provided or will
provide to Congress and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) will facilitate the
resolution and closure of this recommendation. Accordingly, we will consider whether to close
this recommendation after the BOP (1) provides the OIG all contractor and BOP work product
that has been submitted to the GAO in response to the GAO Staffing Audit recommendations,
including the August 2022 assessment by the contractor on staffing incentives and the
EFTA00035909

=== Page 4 ===
information BOP submitted to GAO in March 2023 related to the assessment; (2) provides the
OIG an update on the contractor's or BOP's analysis of staffing incentives since March 2023,
whether submitted yet to GAO or not; (3) provides the OIG any reports submitted to
Congressional appropriation committees related to staffing; (4) implements the staffing tool for
all BOP professions; and (5) provides an analysis of whether the new incentives mentioned in its
update above have made an impact on the staffing shortage, and what additional proposals,
including any legislative proposals to address pay rates in certain localities, are being considered
by the BOP to fully address the staffing shortage.
FBOP's Response: FBOP appreciates OIG's determination to not consolidate the analysis of
this recommendation with that of Recommendation 5 from the OIG's Limited-Scope Review of
the Federal Bureau of Prisons' Strategies to Identify, Communicate, and Remedy Operational
Issues, Report Number 23-065 (Limited-Scope Review), at FBOP's request. OIG indicates that it
will consider whether to close this recommendation after FBOP does the following:
(1) OIG requests all contractor and FBOP work product that has been submitted to the GAO in
response to the GAO Staffing Audit recommendations, including the August 2022 assessment by
the contractor on staffing incentives and the information FBOP submitted to GAO in March
2023 related to the assessment.
FBOP now provides the requested information. Please see the following attachments:
"Attachment 1 Staffing_GAO 21-123," "Attachment 2 Staffing GAO 21-123," "BOP Staffing
Current State Assessment FINAL," "FINAL Incentives Playbook All Resources June 13,"
"Fully executed contract 2_Redacted," "Interviews and Survey Results," "NTT DATA Response
to BOP Staffing Risk Management 04062021 Final," "SOW-BOP Staffing Risk
Management_1," and "STATEMENT OF WORK."
(2) OIG requests that FBOP provide an update on the contractor's or FBOP's analysis of staffing
incentives since March 2023, whether submitted yet to GAO or not;
The FBOP is currently analyzing the agency's usage and effectiveness of both recruitment and
retention incentives. This analysis is ongoing. Therefore, FBOP will provide its analysis to OIG
when completed.
(3) OIG requests any reports submitted to Congressional appropriation committees related to
staffing. See the following attachments: "FY23 BOP Vacancies at Facilities CRPT Package,"
"FY 2023 BOP CRPT Vacancies at BOP Facilities - Attachment," and "FY 2023 CRPT BOP
FSA Implementation Q2 Hill Letters Package - WF220990."
(4) OIG requests that FBOP implements the staffing tool for all BOP professions.
Currently, the Automated Staffing Tool is a workforce planning tool that remains in development
and testing. Position recommendations for the following departments have been completed and
remain in ongoing testing and feedback stages: Correctional Services, Correctional Systems,
Chaplaincy Services, Education, Food Service, Health Services, ITDD, Recreation, Safety, and
Unit Management.
EFTA00035910

=== Page 5 ===
All other disciplines are tentatively scheduled to be completed by October 2024. It is anticipated
that the workforce planning tool will be fully utilized beginning in October 2024.
(5) OIG requests FBOP to provide an analysis of whether the new incentives mentioned in its
previous status update have made an impact on the staffing shortage, and what additional
proposals, including any legislative proposals to address pay rates in certain localities, are being
considered by the BOP to fully address the staffing shortage.
Additional time will be required to determine the effect of those incentives implemented during
the current fiscal year. However, it should be noted the FBOP was approved for nation-wide
direct-hire authority by the Office of Personnel Management (OPM) on May 13, 2024. This will
assist the FBOP in filling vacancies in the future. FBOP is working with the Department of
Justice on a nationwide special salary rate request for our institution positions.
Recommendation Seven: The BOP should evaluate its cell search procedures and make changes
as may be appropriate to improve those procedures through policy, training, or other measures.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is partially responsive to the recommendation. The update for
Recommendation 5 is related to Lieutenant Rounds and not cell searches. The update does not
indicate that the BOP has or will evaluate its cell search procedures and make any necessary
changes to improve those procedures through policy, training, or other measures. The update
only addresses the logging of cell searches within TRUSCOPE rather than evaluating its cell
search procedures. The OIG will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP
(1) completes the evaluation of using TRUSCOPE to log cell searches; (2) otherwise evaluates
its cell search procedures and makes any appropriate changes to improve those procedures; and
(3) provides a description of the training referenced in its response, sample training materials for
OIG to review, and confirmation that the training is in effect.
FBOP's Response: FBOP's Correctional Programs Division has evaluated current policy and
training as related to cell searches. FBOP has concluded that cell search requirements, including
appropriate documentation requirements via TRUSCOPE, are clearly outlined in two separate
current policies: Program Statement 5500.15, Correctional Services Manual, and Program
Statement 5521.06, issued January 2, 2018; and the Searches of Housing Units, Inmates, and
Inmate Work Areas, issued on June 4, 2015.
In addition to the general requirements for conducting cell searches contained in the above
program statements, an institutional supplement is required for Security Inspections at each
institution detailing specific local procedures. Locally, specific post orders are developed which
include search requirements and documentation requirements. Current policy and training are
adequate to convey the specific requirements for conducting cell searches.
Further review indicates that specific training exists for conducting cell searches and is included
in the below training curriculums. Initially, all staff receive specific training on cell searches
during Introduction to Correctional Techniques, Phase I. Additionally, in January 2020, Back to
Basics training was implemented as mandatory training for all institution employees. Back to
Basics is an annual in-person training which includes a set curriculum with practical exercises.
The sections listed below specifically include cell searches and practical exercises.
EFTA00035911

=== Page 6 ===
(Initial) Introduction to Correctional Techniques (ICT) Phase I, Tab 22: Conducting
Searches. See attachment "ICTPhaseI-Tab 22-IG."
(Annual) Back 2 Basics Managing Housing Units Part I - Conduct searches of the
housing unit to include cell searches. See attachment "7-B2B-Managing Housing Units
Part I-Lesson Plan-FY2024."
(Annual) Back 2 Basics Managing Housing Units Part 2 - Conduct searches of the
housing unit to include cell searches (Practical Exercise). See attachment "8-B2B-
Managing Housing Units Part II-Lesson Plan-FY2024."
Therefore, because FBOP has demonstrated completion of its evaluation of using TRUSCOPE to
log cell searches and its evaluation of cell search procedures, and has provided a description of
training referenced, including confirmation that the training is currently in effect, FBOP now
respectfully requests closure of this recommendation.
Recommendation Eight: The BOP should enhance existing policies regarding institutional
security camera systems to ensure they specifically state that such systems must have the
capacity to record video and that BOP institutions must conduct regular security camera system
functionality checks.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. Accordingly, the OIG
will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the policy updates
referenced in its update; and (2) provides the finalized policies to the OIG for review.
FBOP's Response: FBOP is currently in the process of making modifications to Program
Statement 4200.12, Facilities Operations Manual; and Program Statement 5500.15, Correctional
Services Manual, to include protocols and ensure accountability regarding various aspects of the
FBOP's camera systems including but not necessarily limited to functionality, documentation,
and repair. Because revisions to Programs Statements must follow the normal FBOP
development and Union negotiation process, they are subject to change. FBOP will provide
further updates pertaining to these revisions as they become available.
To ensure immediate action, a joint memorandum (from FBOP's Administration Division and
Correctional Programs Division) was sent to all CEOs addressing the Security Camera Monthly
Report. The new report is now in use and became effective June 1, 2024. See attachments
"Camera Report Implementation signed" and "Security Camera Report Template."

Yes, I already went back there but he was in the shower. As soon as he is done showering and dressed, I will go back there again. I
wanted to assess that psych obs is still ok... Central Office Psych was concerned I stepped him down to psych obs rather than keeping
him on SW. I gave my justification and feel it is appropriate, but I just want to make sure I still feel that way when he is interviewed
today. I will be in touch this morning.

Good afternoon all,
Below please find complaints from Epstein's attorneys. Can you check to see if he has toilet paper and
that his CPAP is plugged in?
I am less concerned regarding his complaint of having had two calls, but they were on unmonitored lines,
so there is no recording of them. Is his phone account set up so he can get a call on the ITS when 30
days has elapsed?
Thank you,

Good afternoon Mr.
Our client, Jeffrey Epstein, has informed us that he has no toilet paper in his cell. His CPap machine was
not plugged in last night, so he was unable to use it.
Also, since his arrival at MCC, he has only been able to make two fifteen minute phone calls. Both times,
the calls were on speaker phone, with officers present.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best,
Mariel Colon Miro, Esq.

MEMORANDUM FOR
ASSISTANT INSPECTOR GENERAL
INVESTIGATIONS DIVISION
FROM:
Supervisory Attorney
External Auditing Branch
SUBJECT:
Status Update to the Office of Inspector General's (OIG)
Final Report dated June 26, 2023: Investigation and Review of the Federal
Bureau of Prisons' Custody, Care, and Supervision of Jeffrey Epstein at the
Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, New York
The Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP or Bureau) appreciates the opportunity to provide a response to
the Office of the Inspector General's above referenced memorandum received on December 22, 2024.
The Bureau has completed its review of the analysis and offers the following status update regarding
the analysis and its recommendations.
Recommendation One: The BOP should implement a process for assigning a cellmate
following suicide watch or psychological observation, with criteria for exceptions based on
the particular individual or security considerations.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The BOP has described
revisions it is making to Program Statement 5321.09 to address the recommendation. The BOP has
indicated that these revisions must follow the normal BOP development and Union negotiation
process. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1)
finalizes policy revisions referenced in its update, and (2) provides the finalized policy to the OIG for
review.
EFTA00036006

=== Page 2 ===
FBOP Response: As indicated in OIG's analysis of the Bureau's previous status update, the
Bureau is in the process of revising Program Statement 5321.09, Unit Management and Inmate
Program Review, to address the recommendation, and has indicated that these revisions must
follow the normal policy development and Union negotiation process. Because revisions to
Program Statements must follow the normal Bureau development and Union negotiation process,
they are subject to change. The Bureau will provide further updates as they become available.
Recommendation Two: The BOP should establish procedures to ensure inmates at high
risk for suicide and for whom a cellmate is recommended will continue to have a cellmate
until the recommendation is changed or rescinded, including establishing a contingency
plan for cellmate re-assignment, with criteria for exceptions based on the particular
individual or security considerations.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The BOP has described
revisions it is making to Program Statement 5321.09 to address the recommendation. The BOP
has indicated that these revisions must follow the normal BOP development and Union
negotiation process. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this recommendation
after the BOP (1) finalizes policy revisions referenced in its update, and (2) provides the
finalized policy to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: Please see the Bureau's status update to Recommendation One, above.
Recommendation Three: The BOP should evaluate its current process for obtaining and
documenting approval for social or legal visits while an inmate is on suicide watch or
psychological observation, which allows for institution-specific variations in the process,
and provide guidance on standard components that each institution should include in its
process to mitigate security issues that can arise when an inmate is on suicide watch or
psychological observation.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The BOP has described
revisions it is making to Program Statement 5324.08 to address the recommendation. The BOP
has indicated that these revisions must follow the normal BOP development and Union
negotiation process. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this recommendation
after the BOP (1) finalizes policy revisions referenced in its update, and (2) provides the
finalized policy to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: As indicated in OIG's analysis of the Bureau's previous status update, the
Bureau is in the process of revising Program Statement 5324.08, Suicide Prevention Program, to
address the recommendation, and has indicated that these revisions must follow the normal
policy development and Union negotiation process. Because revisions to Program Statements
must follow the normal Bureau development and Union negotiation process, they are subject to
change. The Bureau will provide further updates as they become available.
EFTA00036007

=== Page 3 ===
Recommendation Four: The BOP should evaluate its methods of accounting for inmate
whereabouts and wellbeing and make changes as may be appropriate to improve those
methods through policy, training, or other measures.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The BOP has described
revisions it is making to Program Statement 5500.14 to address the recommendation. The BOP
has indicated that these revisions must follow the normal BOP development and Union
negotiation process. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this recommendation
after the BOP (1) finalizes the policy revisions referenced in its update; and (2) provides the
finalized program statement to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: As indicated in OIG's analysis of Bureau's previous status update, the Bureau
is in the process of revising Program Statement 5500.14, Correctional Services Procedures
Manual, to address the recommendation, and has indicated that these revisions must follow the
normal policy development and Union negotiation process. Because revisions to Program
Statements must follow the normal Bureau development and Union negotiation process, they are
subject to change. The Bureau will provide further updates as they become available.
Recommendation Five: BOP policy should clarify what is required of a Lieutenant when
conducting a round.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The BOP has described
revisions it is making to Program Statement 5500.14 to address the recommendation. The BOP
also previously indicated that the policy revisions will require Lieutenants to conduct training
sessions that allow for individual assessment and training regarding conducting rounds to be
tailored to the needs of each individual facility. The BOP has indicated that these revisions must
follow the normal BOP development and Union negotiation process. Accordingly, the OIG will
consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the policy revisions
referenced in its update; and (2) provides the finalized program statement to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: Please see the Bureau's status update to Recommendation Four, above.
Recommendation Six: The BOP should continue to develop and implement plans to
address staffing shortages at its prisons.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The BOP has reported
that it has implemented the staffing tool for all professions, but that it is still working on several
other initiatives regarding staffing, including analyzing the agency's usage and effectiveness of
both recruitment and retention incentives, analyzing whether the new incentives and nation-wide
direct hire authority mentioned in its update above have made an impact on the staffing shortage,
and establishing a nationwide special salary rate for institution positions. The OIG will continue
to monitor the BOP's progress regarding staffing shortages at its prisons. In addition, per the
OIG's communications with the BOP, we believe that certain information that the BOP has
EFTA00036008

=== Page 4 ===
provided or will provide to Congress and the Government Accountability Office (GAO) will
facilitate the resolution and closure of this recommendation. Accordingly, we will consider
whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) provides the OIG any additional
contractor and BOP work product that has been submitted to the GAO in response to the GAO
Staffing Audit recommendations,; (2) provides the OIG an update on the contractor's or BOP's
analysis of staffing incentives since March 2023, whether submitted yet to GAO or not; (3)
provides the OIG any additional reports submitted to Congressional appropriation committees
related to staffing; and (4) provides the OIG with an update on the salary proposal submitted to
OPM, including whether OPM has approved or disapproved of the pay table proposals.
FBOP Response: OIG indicates that it will consider whether to close this recommendation after
the Bureau:
1. Provides any additional contractor and BOP work product that has been submitted
to the GAO in response to the GAO Staffing Audit recommendations.
Please see the Bureau's response to GAO's staffing audit recommendations (attachment "Rec 6
GAO Staffing Audit response").
2. Provides an update on the contractor's or BOP's analysis of staffing incentives since
March 2023, whether submitted yet to GAO or not.
Following GAO's recommendation, the Bureau developed four goals: 1) Increase overall
employee retention by 5% compared to historical retention rate; 2) Increase Correctional Officer
retention by 10% compared to historical retention rate; 3) Increase New Hire retention by 10%
compared to historical retention rate; and 4) Increase Nurse Practitioner retention by 10%
compared to historical retention rate. These goals were developed based on the Bureau's most
pressing needs and high-risk positions and were formalized in the 2023 Bureau Incentives
Playbook. Additionally, to provide a holistic understanding of the effectiveness of the Bureau's
incentives usage, an assessment of FY2024 local awards and incentives was conducted after
tracking this information for a full year and collecting local awards data across all Bureau
institutions. The report details monetary awards spending, time off hours awarded, and
recruitment and referral awards distributed at the local level.
Based on the analysis, the Bureau has begun to achieve the four identified goals. Between
FY2023 and FY2024, the Bureau saw notable improvement in overall employee retention rates,
increasing from 90.7% in FY2023 to 93.9% in FY2024, an increase of 3.2%. For Correctional
Officers specifically, the position saw a retention rate increase of 3.9%, from 91.8% in FY2023
to 95.7% in FY2024. Additionally, Nurse Practitioners retention increased by 6.2%, from 85.8%
in FY2023 to 92% in FY2024. Additional data is pending to review whether the Bureau is
meeting its goal for New Hires.
Due to budgetary constraints, the Bureau is reducing or eliminating our use of incentives
effective March 23, 2025.
EFTA00036009

=== Page 5 ===
3. Provides any additional reports submitted to Congressional appropriation
committees related to staffing.
The Bureau has no further information to provide regarding reports submitted to Congressional
appropriation committees related to staffing. However, the Bureau's funding proposal seeks
$1,000,730,000 over the next five years to cover Special Salary Rates for the Bureau's current
authorized levels of corrections officers and covered nurses; and an increase of 4,500
Correctional Officer positions and 200 nurses along with $1,570,000,000 to fund those positions.
The increase in positions is based on projections from the newly launched Automated Staffing
Tool.
4. Provides an update on the salary proposal submitted to OPM, including whether
OPM has approved or disapproved of the pay table proposals.
The Bureau has not received any updates nor been advised of any adjudications related to the
submitted Special Salary Requests for Correctional Officers and Nurses. Both requests are still
under OPM review and pending an outcome. The Bureau will continue to evaluate and submit
special salary rate requests during the annual OPM data call for individual institution and
positions; however, no additional nationwide proposals are being considered at this time.
Recommendation Eight: The BOP should enhance existing policies regarding institutional
security camera systems to ensure they specifically state that such systems must have the
capacity to record video and that BOP institutions must conduct regular security camera
system functionality checks.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The OIG reviewed the
BOP's new Security Camera Monthly Report and appreciates the progress the BOP has made in
creating this form and instituting the new monthly reporting process. Accordingly, the OIG will
consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the policy updates
referenced in its update; and (2) provides the finalized policies to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: As indicated in the previous status update, Program Statements 5500.14,
Correctional Services Procedures Manual, and 4200.12, Facilities Operations Manual, are being
modified to include protocols and ensure accountability regarding various aspects of the
Bureau's camera systems, including but not limited to functionality, documentation, and repair.
Because revisions to Program Statements must follow the normal development and Union
negotiation process, they are subject to change. The Bureau will provide further updates as they
become available.

Please see the below email chain regarding the SHU attorney conference room issue.
>>> Peggy Cross-Goldenberg
7/30/2019 4:28 PM >>>
Hi
Just to note one additional wrinkle that is easily solved:
Today, it sounds like our staff observed that Epstein's lawyers were able to hold onto the SHU room even
after they had met with him while they waited to meet with him again. No one else gets that privilege. If
a client has to be taken back to the unit, or to medical, or otherwise leave the attorney visiting area, we
would have to leave, too. If he needs to be taken to another location, and his attorneys want to meet
with him again, the facility can require them to get back in line like the rest of us.
Today alone we had one attorney give up after waiting in the lobby for 2.5 hours. We had another
attorney wait for three hours. That included a wait of an hour and fifteen minutes *after* he got to the
SHU room while Epstein was brought *back* to the room his lawyers had been holding and while medical
visited him there regarding some paperwork for his fish allergy.
We have attorneys who urgently need to see clients this week. We urgently need a solution.
Thanks,
Peggy

Thanks for getting back to us,
Just a heads up that we will likely file something with Judge Rakoff
in Sayoc. Our attorneys have not been able to meet with him, and his sentencing is coming up. If there's
some alternative, please let me know.

Can you not just move him to another cell? He will not have lunch in Attorney Conference. He will go back to his cell to eat.
He knows this.

He also complained that he is in Attorney Conference from about 8 AM to about 8 PM each day and he said yesterday he
only received one meal, a sandwich at about 4:15 PM. He said he should be getting lunch and dinner.
Also additional information on the toilet that reportedly flushed for 45 minutes. He stated to avoid the toilet from doing that
again because he stated he found it so aversive and disorienting, he has been urinating in a cup. I already sent an e-mail to
Mr.
about the toilet.

AW
,
Inmate Epstein seems psychologically stable.
He complained that his right arm was numb and hanging earlier. Nurse
saw him.
He again said his right arm still feels somewhat numb and he said he cannot make a fist with that hand. He also said he has
numbness on his neck. I informed Nurse
He stated the toilet in his cell was running for 45 minutes last night and he could not take the noise. He is going to try the
toilet before going to legal today and if it does not shut off, he will be moved to another cell.
Thanks,

DEPARTMENT OF JUSTICE
OFFICE OF THE INSPECTOR GENERAL
*******
OFFICE INSPECTOR
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
June 22, 2023
DOJ OIG Releases Report on Investigation and Review of the Federal Bureau of Prisons' Custody,
Care, and Supervision of Jeffrey Epstein at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, New
York
Department of Justice (DOJ) Inspector General Michael E. Horowitz announced today the release of a report
regarding the Federal Bureau of Prison's custody, care, and supervision of Jeffrey Epstein while detained at
the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, New York (MCC New York). The DOJ Office of the
Inspector General (OIG) initiated this investigation and review upon receipt of information from the BOP
that inmate Jeffery Epstein was found hanged in his assigned cell. The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner,
City of New York, determined that Epstein had died by suicide. The DOJ OIG conducted this investigation
jointly with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), with the OIG's investigative focus being the conduct of
BOP personnel. Among other things, the FBI investigated the cause of Epstein's death and determined
there was no criminality pertaining to how Epstein had died.
The OIG's investigation and review identified numerous and serious failures by MCC New York staff,
including multiple violations of MCC New York and BOP policies and procedures, which led to Epstein being
unmonitored and alone in his cell, which contained an excessive amount of bed linens, from approximately
10:40 p.m. on August 9 until he was discovered hanged in his locked cell the following day. While the OIG
determined MCC New York staff engaged in significant misconduct, we did not uncover evidence
contradicting the FBI's determination regarding the absence of criminality in connection with how Epstein
died.
The DOJ OIG has repeatedly identified long-standing operational challenges that negatively affect the BOP's
ability to operate its institutions safely and securely. Many of those same operational challenges, including
staffing shortages, managing inmates at risk for suicide, functional security camera systems, and
management failures and widespread disregard of BOP policies and procedures, were again identified by
the OIG during this investigation and review of the custody, care, and supervision of Epstein, one of the
BOP's most notorious inmates.
The OIG's findings included the following:
EFTA00035824

=== Page 2 ===
MCC New York Staff Failed to Ensure that Epstein Was Assigned a Cellmate. Following a July
23, 2019 incident that resulted in Epstein being placed on suicide watch, the MCC New York
Psychology Department determined that Epstein needed to be housed with an appropriate
cellmate. On August 9, Epstein's cellmate was transferred out of MCC New York. MCC New York
staff knew that Epstein did not have a cellmate as was required, but did not take steps to ensure
that Epstein was assigned a new cellmate.
MCC New York Staff Failed to Undertake Required Measures Designed to Ensure that Epstein
and Other Inmates Were Accounted for and Safe. BOP policy requires SHU staff to observe all
inmates at least twice an hour and that lieutenants conduct at least one round in the SHU each shift.
BOP policy also requires multiple inmate counts during every 24-hour period. Among other things,
inmate counts and rounds enable BOP staff to observe inmates and ensure they are secure in their
cells and in good health. Further, to eliminate safety hazards, MCC New York requires SHU staff to
search SHU common areas and at least five cells daily, and to search the entire SHU every week.
A search of Epstein's cell following his death revealed Epstein had excess prison blankets, linens, and
clothing in his cell, and that some had been ripped to create nooses. Only one SHU cell search was
documented on August 9, and it was not of Epstein's cell. BOP records did not indicate when
Epstein's cell was last searched. The OIG also found that SHU staff did not conduct any 30-minute
rounds after about 10:40 p.m. on August 9 and that none of the required SHU inmate counts were
conducted after 4:00 p.m. on August 9.
MCC New York Falsified BOP Records Relating to Inmate Counts and Rounds. MCC New York
falsified count slips and round sheets to show that they had been performed when they were not,
leaving Epstein unobserved for hours before his death.
The DOJ OIG Did Not Uncover Evidence Contradicting the FBI's Determination that there Was
No Criminality Associated with Epstein's Death. The OIG reviewed the available recorded video
footage and found that, between approximately 10:40 p.m. on August 9 and about 6:30 a.m. on
August 10, no one was seen entering Epstein's cell tier from the SHU common area. Further, the
SHU staff and three interviewed inmates with a direct line of sight to Epstein's cell door on the night
of his death stated that no one entered or exited Epstein's cell after the SHU staff returned Epstein
to his cell on August 9. None of the MCC New York staff members we interviewed were aware of
any information suggesting Epstein's cause of death was something other than suicide. Additionally,
none of the inmates we interviewed had any credible information suggesting Epstein's cause of
death was something other than suicide.
We noted as well that Epstein had previously been placed on suicide watch and psychological
observation due to the events of July 23, 2019; that numerous nooses made from the excess prison
sheets-linens were found in his cell on the morning of August 10; that no weapons were recovered
from his cell after his death; and that he signed a new Last Will and Testament on August 8, 2 days

before he died. We found that the staff's failure to assign Epstein a cellmate on August 9, to conduct
rounds and counts that evening, and to allow him to have excess linens in his cell, left Epstein
unmonitored and locked alone in his cell for hours, which provided him an opportunity to commit
suicide.
The DOJ OIG made nine recommendations to improve the BOP's management of its correctional
institutions. The BOP agreed with all nine recommendations.
Report: Today's report can be found on the OIG's website at the following link:

placing him in to the EMT ambulance with Bop staff escort as I followed in a secure government vehicle to the
Downtown Beekman hospital where I stayed on post until I was relieved.

MEMORANDUM FOR
ASSISTANT INSPECTOR GENERAL
INVESTIGATIONS DIVISION
FROM:
External Auditing Branch
SUBJECT:
Status Update to the Office of Inspector General's (OIG)
Final Report dated June 26, 2023: Investigation and Review of the Federal
Bureau of Prisons' Custody, Care, and Supervision of Jeffrey Epstein at the
Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York, New York
The Federal Bureau of Prisons (FBOP) appreciates the opportunity to provide a response to the Office
of the Inspector General's above referenced memorandum received on August 28, 2024. The FBOP
has completed its review of the analysis and offers the following status update regarding the analysis
and its recommendations.
Recommendation One: The BOP should implement a process for assigning a cellmate
following suicide watch or psychological observation, with criteria for exceptions based on
the particular individual or security considerations.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. In a previous update, the
BOP reported that RSD and CPD were collaborating on a memo to provide guidance to the field on a
process to ensure psychologists make recommendations regarding housing, including the presence of
a cellmate, for individuals in custody following suicide watch or psychological observation. The BOP
further reported that this process will include exemptions based on individual or security
considerations. In a February 2024 update, the BOP indicated that this guidance had been drafted and
was under review. The BOP has now stated that the guidance is still under review. Accordingly, the
OIG will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the guidance
referenced in its update, and (2) provides the finalized guidance to the OIG for review.
EFTA00035781

=== Page 2 ===
FBOP Response: As indicated in FBOP's previous status update, guidance is currently in
development. FBOP has determined that the appropriate vehicle for this guidance is Program
Statement 5321.09, Unit Management and Inmate Program Review, rather than in the form of a
guidance memorandum. FBOP therefore plans to replicate in that policy the tracking process
already established for single cells in Program Statement 5270.12, Special Housing Units, but
apply it to general population. The modification to the Unit Management and Inmate Program
Review policy will prescribe a specific process for single-cell placement and tracking only if
single-cell placement in general population appears necessary, mirroring the language
pertaining to the process in the policy for SHU.
The modification to the Unit Management and Inmate Program Review policy will explain that,
if it appears necessary to single cell an individual in a general population unit during regular
working hours, the Unit Manager will contact the Captain and Chief Psychologist (or designee)
for their recommendations. If a single cell is required after hours or on weekends, the Operations
Lieutenant will contact the Captain and Chief Psychologist (or designee) telephonically for their
recommendations. Monitoring single-celling in the general population will be recorded on
"BP-A1121 CO Single Cell Review Form-GP" (see attachment). This form will be signed by the
Warden as soon as feasible following the placement of an individual in a single cell. These forms
will be reviewed and discussed during the weekly multidisciplinary team meetings and the
recommendations (to continue or discontinue) will be recorded by the Unit Manager in
TRUSCOPE, as a "daily log entry."
Because revisions to Programs Statements must follow the normal FBOP development and
Union negotiation process, they are subject to change. FBOP will provide further updates they
become available.
Recommendation Two: The BOP should establish procedures to ensure inmates at high
risk for suicide and for whom a cellmate is recommended will continue to have a cellmate
until the recommendation is changed or rescinded, including establishing a contingency
plan for cellmate re-assignment, with criteria for exceptions based on the particular
individual or security considerations.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. In a previous update,
the BOP reported that RSD and CPD were collaborating on a memo to provide guidance to the
field on procedures to ensure communication regarding the requirement of a cellmate for
individuals following suicide watch or psychological observation when recommended by a
psychologist. The BOP further reported that this memo will include a procedure for exemptions
based on individual or security considerations. In a February 2024 update, the BOP indicated that
this guidance had been drafted and was under review. The BOP has now stated that the guidance
is still under review. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this recommendation
after the BOP (1) finalizes the guidance referenced in its update, and (2) provides the finalized
guidance to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: As indicated in FBOP's previous status update, guidance is currently in
development. Further, as stated in the response to Recommendation 1, above, FBOP has
EFTA00035782

=== Page 3 ===
determined that the appropriate vehicle for this guidance is Program Statement 5321.09, Unit
Management and Inmate Program Review, rather than in the form of a guidance memorandum.
FBOP therefore plans to replicate in that policy the tracking process already established for
single cells in Program Statement 5270.12, Special Housing Units, but apply it to general
population. The modification to the Unit Management and Inmate Program Review policy will
prescribe a specific process for single-cell placement and tracking only if single-cell placement
in general population appears necessary, mirroring the language pertaining to the process in the
policy for SHU.
Because revisions to Programs Statements must follow the normal FBOP development and
Union negotiation process, they are subject to change. FBOP will provide further updates they
become available.
Recommendation Three: The BOP should evaluate its current process for obtaining and
documenting approval for social or legal visits while an inmate is on suicide watch or
psychological observation, which allows for institution-specific variations in the process,
and provide guidance on standard components that each institution should include in its
process to mitigate security issues that can arise when an inmate is on suicide watch or
psychological observation.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. In a previous update,
the BOP reported that it was evaluating its process for obtaining and documenting approval for
social and/or legal visits while an inmate is on suicide watch or psychological observation. In a
February 2024 update, the BOP reported that while it currently does not have guidance on these
issues, new guidance had been drafted and was under review. The BOP has now stated that the
guidance is still under review. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this
recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the guidance referenced in its update, and (2)
provides the finalized guidance to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: As indicated in its previous status update, FBOP was developing guidance
with regard to its process for obtaining and documenting approval for social and/or legal visits
while an inmate is on suicide watch or psychological observation. However, upon further
consideration, FBOP has determined that this guidance should not be in the form of a guidance
memorandum, but should instead be included in Program Statement 5324.08, Suicide Prevention
Policy. Therefore, FBOP is in the process of altering that policy accordingly. Because revisions
to Programs Statements must follow the normal FBOP development and Union negotiation
process, they are subject to change. FBOP will provide further updates they become available.
Recommendation Four: The BOP should evaluate its methods of accounting for inmate
whereabouts and wellbeing and make changes as may be appropriate to improve those
methods through policy, training, or other measures.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. Accordingly, the OIG
will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the program
EFTA00035783

=== Page 4 ===
statement update referenced in its update; and (2) provides the finalized program statement to the
OIG for review.
FBOP Response: As indicated in the previous status update, Program Statement 5500.14,
Correctional Services Procedures Manual, is being modified to include methods for accounting
for inmate whereabouts and wellbeing. Because revisions to Programs Statements must follow
the normal development and Union negotiation process, they are subject to change. FBOP will
provide further updates as they become available.
Recommendation Five: BOP policy should clarify what is required of a Lieutenant when
conducting a round.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The BOP reported that
it is updating its policy to address the recommendation. In its February 2024 update, the BOP
also indicated that it would be conducting training for Lieutenants on conducting rounds. The
OIG therefore previously asked the BOP to provide "a description of the training referenced in
its update, sample training materials for OIG to review, and confirmation that the training is in
effect." The BOP has indicated that, to allow for variation based on the specific needs of each
institution, there will not be a specific BOP-wide curriculum for the training; however, training
will be conducted and documented on the Daily Lieutenant Logs and reviewed by the Captain
for specific local training needs. Accordingly, the OIG will consider whether to close this
recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the program statement update referenced in its
update; and (2) provides the finalized program statement to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: As indicated in the previous status update, Program Statement 5500.14,
Correctional Services Procedures Manual, is being modified to include methods for accounting
for inmate whereabouts and wellbeing. Because revisions to Programs Statements must follow
the normal development and Union negotiation process, they are subject to change. FBOP will
provide further updates as they become available.
Recommendation Six: The BOP should continue to develop and implement plans to
address staffing shortages at its prisons.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. The OIG will continue
to monitor the BOP's progress regarding staffing shortages at its prisons. Accordingly, we will
consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) provides the OIG an update on
the contractor's or BOP's analysis of staffing incentives since March 2023, whether submitted
yet to GAO or not; (2) implements the staffing tool for all BOP professions; (3) provides an
analysis of whether the new incentives and nation-wide direct-hire authority mentioned in its
update above have made an impact on the staffing shortage; (4) provides an update on its efforts
to establish a nationwide special salary rate for institution positions; and (5) describes any
additional proposals, including any legislative proposals to address pay rates in certain localities,
that are being considered by the BOP to fully address the staffing shortage and provides an
EFTA00035784

=== Page 5 ===
update to the OIG on the Department's consideration and cooperation with the BOP on any such
proposal.
FBOP Response: OIG indicates that it will consider whether to close this recommendation after
FBOP:
1. Provides an update on the contractor's or FBOP's analysis of staffing incentives
since March 2023; whether submitted yet to GAO or not.
The FBOP is currently analyzing the agency's usage and effectiveness of both recruitment and
retention incentives. This analysis is ongoing. Therefore, FBOP will provide an update to OIG
when completed.
2. Implements the staffing tool for all FBOP professions.
The Automated Staffing Tool (AST) went live officially on October 1, 2024, and has been
implemented for all FBOP professions. This workforce planning tool will allow FBOP
leadership to identify true institution position needs to safely and effectively operate all of the
FBOP's 122 institutions. The AST recommends position numbers based on data driven insights
from internal and external subject matter experts, institution-specific criteria, and evolving
mission requirements.
3. Provides an analysis of whether the new incentives and nation-wide direct-hire
authority mentioned in its update above have made an impact on the staffing
shortage.
The FBOP continues to collect data in an effort to complete its analysis in 2025. However,
preliminary analysis has shown retention incentives to be an effective factor when comparing
data from the recent fiscal years. In FY 2024, the lowest number of total separations occurred
with 2,572 separations. In FY 2023, the FBOP had 2,900 separations. FY 2022 had the highest
number of separations in the FBOP in recent years with 3,665.
Recruitment measures have also made an impact in the most recent fiscal years. In FY 2024,
FBOP saw the largest influx of staff since FY 2021, with 3,596 new hires. Comparatively,
FY 2023 saw 2,622 new hires and 1,846 in FY 2022. After receiving nationwide DHA approval
in May 2024, and continuing through September 2024, the FBOP has hired over 450 correctional
officers with Direct Hiring Authority, totaling 642 for FY 2024. This is significantly greater than
our total of 196 new hires for FY 2023 and 83 new hires for FY 2022 without nationwide DHA.
4. Provides an update on its efforts to establish a nationwide special salary rate for
institution positions.
The FBOP is continuing to actively collaborate with the Department of Justice (DOJ) and the
Office of Personnel Management (OPM) to develop a special salary rate aimed at addressing
recruitment and retention challenges within our institutions by offering more competitive
salaries. Currently, the FBOP is focusing Special Salary Rate efforts on the Correctional Officer
EFTA00035785

=== Page 6 ===
and nurse positions and submitted its request to DOJ at the end of September 2024. DOJ
informed FBOP that both requests are under OPM review.
5. Describes any additional proposals, including any legislative proposals to address
pay rates in certain localities, that are being considered by the BOP to fully address
the staffing shortage and provides an update to the OIG on the Department's
consideration and cooperation with the BOP on any such proposal.
As of November 2024, FBOP has no further input regarding proposals being considered to
address the staffing shortage.
Recommendation Eight: The BOP should enhance existing policies regarding institutional
security camera systems to ensure they specifically state that such systems must have the
capacity to record video and that BOP institutions must conduct regular security camera
system functionality checks.
OIG Analysis: The BOP's update is responsive to the recommendation. Accordingly, the OIG
will consider whether to close this recommendation after the BOP (1) finalizes the policy updates
referenced in its update; and (2) provides the finalized policies to the OIG for review.
FBOP Response: As indicated in the previous status update, Program Statement 5500.14,
Correctional Services Procedures Manual, and Program Statement 4200.12, Facilities Operations
Manual, are being modified to include protocols and ensure accountability regarding various
aspects of FBOP's camera systems, including but not limited to functionality, documentation,
and repair. Because revisions to Programs Statements must follow the normal development and
Union negotiation process, they are subject to change. FBOP will provide further updates as they
become available.
However, to ensure immediate action, a joint memorandum from FBOP's Administration
Division and Correctional Programs Division was sent to all CEOs addressing necessary camera
protocols. See attachments "Camera Report Implementation signed" and "Security Camera
Report Template." The joint memorandum implemented a monthly reporting process in all
facilities and attached a template to use for monthly reporting. The monthly reporting requires
electronic technicians at each facility to list the number of installed cameras, adjustments to the
camera count as needed, information regarding camera recording capability and camera
operational state, and information regarding any repairs made to the cameras during the month of
reporting. The Captain and Facility Manager must review each monthly report from the facility
and ensure accuracy. The monthly Security Camera Report will then be included in the Facilities
Management Monthly Report to Regional offices and submitted from the Warden to the
Regional Director. The new monthly Security Camera Report is now in use and became effective
June 1, 2024.

Yes, I already went back there but he was in the shower. As soon as he is done showering and dressed, I will go back there again. I
wanted to assess that psych obs is still ok... Central Office Psych was concerned I stepped him down to psych obs rather than keeping
him on SW. I gave my justification and feel it is appropriate, but I just want to make sure I still feel that way when he is interviewed
today. I will be in touch this morning.

I am working with IPPA to finalize the press release (1st draft attached). Can you please give me answers to the below:
(1) Has Epstein's next of kin been notified?
(2) Did staff initiate life-saving measures when they first found Epstein at approximately 6:30 am in his cell?
(3) Did EMS or some sort of hospital staff come out to the institution, and if so, did they initiate life-saving measures at the
institution? And did EMS
drive Epstein to the hospital or did BOP drive him to the hospital?
(4) Was Epstein pronounced dead by EMS (transporting folks) or instead hospital staff at 7:30 am at the hospital?
(5) Was the FBI notified? Is it being investigated as a suicide?
(6) What date did he first arrive at MCC NY on his PP37?
(7) What are his specific offense titles for which he is indicted? I believe generally the news calls it sex trafficking, but we
should be as specifically accurate based on Sentry (or the court order if we have it).
Thanks,

On July 23, 2019 at approx. 1:27 a.m., a call for assistance on the Special Housing Unit was announced by the Control
Center. Upon my arrival I was informed that an inmate had attempted suicide and proceeded to cell, Z05-124LAD. I
observed inmate Epstein, Jeffrey #76318-054 lying in the fetal position on the floor of his cell wearing a t-shirt and boxers.
He was breathing heavily and was snoring. I called out to inmate Epstein and observed him flicker his eyes and continue
snoring. His neck was red with no abrasions. I observed no further injuries to his person. An attempt was made to get
the inmate to stand on his own with negative results. The inmate was placed in hand restraints and staff was directed to
retrieve the stretcher. As inmate Epstein was being placed on the stretcher by responding staff, he would open his eyes
and observe staff. When staff made eye contact with him, he would hurriedly shut his eyes. The inmate was taken to
HA-Unit, dressed in the suicide smock and placed on suicide watch.
Upon the arrival of medical staff, inmate Epstein was examined and treated by, MLP

erythema at the base of the neck, one section on the front with marks of friction and a small erythema on his left knee.

Possible Suicide Attempt
On July 23, 2019 at approx. 1:27 a.m., a call for assistance on the Special Housing Unit
was announced by the Control Center. Upon my arrival I was informed that an inmate
had attempted suicide and proceeded to cell, Z05-124LAD. I observed inmate
Epstein, Jeffrey #76318-054 lying in the fetal position on the floor of his cell wearing a
t-shirt and boxers. He was breathing heavily and was snoring. I called out to inmate
Epstein and observed him flicker his eyes and continue snoring. His neck was red
with no abrasions. I observed no further injuries to his person. An attempt was made
to get the inmate to stand on his own with negative results. The inmate was placed in
hand restraints and staff was directed to retrieve the stretcher. As inmate Epstein was
being placed on the stretcher by responding staff, he would open his eyes and observe
staff. When staff made eye contact with him, he would hurriedly shut his eyes. The
inmate was taken to HA-Unit, dressed in the suicide smock and placed on suicide
watch. While awaiting the arrival of an inmate companion, inmate Epstein sat on the
edge of the bed and began moving forward as if he was attempting to fall over head
first. When I looked away, he straightened up. As I turned to look at him again, he
attempted the same act. I laid him down on the bed and directed him to cease his
action or he would be placed in restraints for his safety. At that moment, he stated,
"Okay, I won't do it again," and gave the thumbs up. Because of his unpredictable
behavior, the decision was made to have a staff member observe inmate Epstein. I
left HA-Unit in order to make staff notifications. Moments later, I spoke with Officer
Clarke who stated that inmate Epstein was alert and had indicated that his cellmate,
had attempted to kill him and had been harassing
him. He stated that the inmate had indicated that he'd informed his attorney of this
matter.
I photographed and spoke with inmate
who stated
that he was asleep with his headphones on when he felt something hit his legs and
said, "Jeff, what you're doing?" He didn't answer, so he got up, turned on the light and
saw him with a string around his neck. He stated that he then called the guards and

they ran down. Upon further questioning, inmate
lated that he sleeps on
the bottom bunk, but gave it to inmate Epstein because he's old. He stated that he
sleeps on the floor on a mattress. He stated that when he got up, he couldn't
remember if he sat up or stood up to check on Epstein. He stated that Epstein was
sitting on the floor leaning to the side with his eyes opened, but wasn't responding. He
stated that the last time he saw him he was snoring really loud.
Inmate Epstein stated that he came in from a legal visit at approx. 8:00PM and staff
handed him a copy of the Daily News.
was on the floor reading the Daily News.
He stated that he had given it to him. He stated that
mentioned that he'd
been in court all day in Westchester and was carrying on. At that point, inmate
paused as if he was making the story up as he went along, and stated that
stated, "These fucking niggers. This place is inhumane, I wish I could
report it.
(Officer), that nigger hobbit mother fucker." He then turned to a page in
the Daily News that had his picture on it and stated that Epstein was worth seventy
seven million dollars. Epstein stated that he took his picture, balled it up and threw it in
the garbage. I asked inmate Epstein what happened prior to staff's arrival. He stated
that at approx. 1:00 AM, he'd gotten up to get a drink of water, as he gets up every
thirty minutes. He remember walking back to his bunk and waking up with staff there
in his cell. I asked if he'd waken up and seen staff, why didn't he respond when we
were calling out to him? He stated that he only remembered hearing himself making a
noise like snoring. When asked about the allegations against his cellmate, he stated
that he was told, if he hurt him, staff wouldn't care.
Duty medical,
was notified and briefed. It was determined no further
medical attention was needed. A medical assessment was not conducted at the time
of this incident, due to the fact, there was no medical staff available after 10:00 PM.
Upon the arrival of medical staff, inmate Epstein was examined and treated by, MLP
for a circular line of erythema at the base of the neck, one section on the front
with marks of friction and a small erythema on his left knee.

SUBJECT: Incident on 9 south
On July 23, 2019 at approximately 1:27, I,
responded to a body alarm on the
Special Housing Unit. While the 9-South officer was conducted rounds inmate Epstein, Jeffrey
#76318-054 was found in his cell with a noose around his neck and appeared to be unresponsive.
I assisted with taking inmate Epstein #76318-054 from his cell and putting him on a stretcher.
The inmate was taken to the second floor and placed on suicide watch, where he was monitored by
staff. Moments afterwards, inmate Epstein became responsive. While observing inmate Epstein
he sat up on the bed and began telling me that he think his Bunkie,
tried to kill him. Inmate Epstein also stated that his Bunkie also tried to extort
money from him and stated that if he didn't pay him that he would beat him up. He stated that
this has been going on for a week. I asked inmate Epstein if he told staff about this and he told
me no, that he'd only told his lawyer. He went on to say that his Bunkie told him that if he beat
him up, because of his charges, the officers would not report it and because of this he was not
comfortable telling the officers about the prolong threats and alleged attempts to extort him. I
immediately reported this to the lieutenant.
