dated April 1, 2020, explaining that any responsive information in the Government’s possession and subject to disclosure had already been produced. The letter further explained that to the extent the requests called for items not in the Government’s possession or not subject to disclosure, Thomas had not identified any legal basis or authority for his requests and the Government was not aware of any authority requiring the Government to obtain or produce the requested information.
On April 9, 2020, Thomas filed the instant motion seeking an order from the Court compelling the Government to produce the following:
• The Inspector General’s report investigating the death of Jeffrey Epstein and BOP policies and procedures (referred to herein as the “Inspector General’s Report”), as well as all supporting memoranda and other documents, (Mot. 4-5);
• Any and all “reports generated by investigators within the [BOP] regarding the August 10, 2019 incident” as well as “documents, reports, witness statements and disciplinary records of any and all MCC employees who have engaged in the same or similar conduct,” including “results of any disciplinary proceedings and documents maintained by the BOP regarding the discipline or administrative adjudication of any other employees who have failed to conduct rounds or inmate counts,” (Mot. 4, 6);
• Any previously undisclosed reports, witness statements, and documents created by “any other federal agencies that investigated the circumstances surrounding the death of Jeffrey Epstein,” (Mot. 4, 7).
For the reasons that follow, Thomas is not entitled to the materials he seeks, and his motion should be denied.
