This document is an email chain between officials at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC), the Bureau of Prisons (BOP), and the U.S. Attorney's Office (USAO) on the morning of August 10, 2019, detailing the timeline of notifications regarding Jeffrey Epstein's death. The chain begins with a 7:52 AM notification of an 'apparent suicide attempt' and ambulance transfer, followed by an 8:18 AM confirmation that he had 'passed.' A significant portion involves a USAO official expressing extreme frustration at 10:43 AM that defense counsel and the press had more information than the government attorneys, specifically requesting basic facts like time and cause of death.
