This document is an email chain from August 13-15, 2019, coordinating a high-level visit by SDNY US Attorney Geoffrey Berman and DOJ Principal Deputy Attorney General Ed O'Callahan to the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in New York following Jeffrey Epstein's death. The officials requested to inspect the 2nd-floor suicide watch area, the 9th-floor SHU, and Epstein's specific cell, which remained cordoned off.
