Type: Doj office of the inspector general (oig) draft report
File Size: 1.36 MB
Summary

This document is a draft DOJ OIG report investigating the Bureau of Prisons' supervision of Jeffrey Epstein at MCC New York during the night of his death (August 9-10, 2019). It details how staffing shortages led to a 'Material Handler' working 24 consecutive hours; this employee and another officer ('Noel') failed to conduct mandatory 30-minute rounds or the 10:00 p.m. inmate count because they were 'tired' and instead spent the night surfing the internet. The report confirms that records were falsified to show counts were completed, noting that no officer entered Epstein's tier between 10:40 p.m. and 6:30 a.m.
