Summary

This document is a chain of emails between Bureau of Prisons officials regarding the video recording capabilities at the MCC (Metropolitan Correctional Center) in New York, dated August 12-13, 2019. The emails discuss the FBI seizing the camera system to retrieve recordings (likely related to Epstein's death), which would leave the facility without recording capabilities for 8-10 days. The officials discuss an emergency plan to install new NVRs (Network Video Recorders) involving outside contractors (Signet) and BOP electricians to restore local recording capability immediately.

Boss,
I think we have a viable plan. I know that you are extremely busy, so If you can let me know when is a good time to talk. Below you will find a brief synopsis.
• It is looking like MCC will have some recording by the end of the day today and the rest by the end of day tomorrow.
• The new recording system will not be on the BOPNET but will have local recording/viewing capabilities.
• In order to get the system on the BOPNET and get the additional digital cameras installed, I am recommending that we bring 6 electricians to finish running conduit and 2 Comm techs TDY to run the fiber. This would be their only mission. I am estimating that if this happens they will work 12 hour days and it should take 4-6 weeks once work begins.
So when you have time please let me know and ill give you a call and explain everything that needs to be accomplished.
I told the Facility Manager to get with the [Redacted] and let him know what is going on and maybe you can all talk together also as an option.

So they're taking the NVR? Do we know the make/model so that as an option we could get with the vendor and get an emergency replacement?

[Redacted] and [Redacted] The FBI is going to be retrieving the previous recordings from or camera system at MCC, but because we were having difficulty retrieving the recordings, they have told us the recording capabilities will be off line for up to 8-10 days while they retrieve this data. We will still have live viewing/monitoring. My question: are there options for remote recording from another location, or do we possess other equipment that can be connected to the system while the current recording capabilities are off line?
