Summary
This document is a transcript of a court conference held on November 25, 2019, regarding the case of United States v. Tova Noel and Michael Thomas, the correctional officers charged in connection with Jeffrey Epstein's death. The proceedings cover the schedule for discovery production (including hundreds of hours of video), the setting of a trial date for April 20, 2020, and arguments regarding the relevance of an ongoing DOJ Inspector General report into the Bureau of Prisons. The court also addressed bail conditions, granting a travel restriction modification for Noel and an extension for Thomas to secure cosigners, but denying Noel's request to keep her personal firearm at home due to safety concerns for pretrial services officers.
