MEMORANDUM FOR: FILE
FROM: [REDACTED], Captain [REDACTED]
SUBJECT: Security Expectations Involving Inmate
Epstein, Jeffrey Reg. No. 76318-054
During the week of July 31, 2019 in order to address management
concerns with inmate Epstein. I felt it was necessary to hold informal
training sessions with Correctional Services Supervisors and Line
Staff assigned to the Special Housing Unit. The informal training
sessions was conducted in the Lieutenants Office, inside the SHU,
and while conducting rounds throughout the institution. I informed
staff of the importance of being vigilant and being security minded
when dealing with inmate Epstein, Jeffrey Reg. No. 76318-054, and
other inmates within the Special Housing Unit. I explained that
Lieutenants were to conduct more un announced rounds in the unit,
providing oversite over operations and security. I pointed out
apparent security concerns such as observation windows being blocked
preventing staff from completing proper rounds, torn bed sheets,
clothing, covering of light fixtures, clotheslines, and the
accumulation of food trays in cells. I made clear of my expectations
of maintaining a clean and manageable unit. I explained should we
not continue to be proactive in the management of our inmate
population, there would be another occurrence of the below describe
incident.
Inmate Epstein while housed at the Metropolitan Correctional Center
located in New York City. In the early morning hours of July 23,
2019, he was found unresponsive in his cell after an apparent suicide
attempt.
In detailed conversations with the SHU Lieutenant, he was informed
of my expectations regarding the supervision of inmate Epstein.
Specifically, he was reminded on several occasions that inmate
Epstein was to housed with a cell mate.
