Summary
This page is from a legal filing (Case 1:19-cr-00830-AT) dated April 24, 2020, arguing against a motion by defendant Thomas (likely Michael Thomas, a guard involved in the Epstein case) to disclose draft versions of an Inspector General's Report regarding the Bureau of Prisons (BOP). The text argues that such drafts do not yet exist and, even if they did, would be protected by the 'deliberative process privilege.' The document cites numerous legal precedents to support the claim that pre-decisional government documents are shielded from discovery.
