This document is a Deferred Prosecution Agreement (DPA) between the United States and Tova Noel, a Bureau of Prisons employee charged in connection with the events surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death. Noel admits to knowingly falsifying count and round slips at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) on August 9 and 10, 2019. The agreement defers prosecution for six months pending her good behavior, 100 hours of community service, and cooperation with investigators (FBI, DOJ-OIG), after which the indictment will be dismissed if conditions are met.

This document is a briefing paper for Attorney General William Barr's visit to the SDNY on October 10, 2019. It summarizes three key investigations: the circumstances surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's suicide at MCC (highlighting the failure of guards Thomas and Noel to perform rounds and their falsification of records), the prosecution of the Nine Trey Gangsta Bloods, and the 'Hard Knocks' sex-trafficking prosecution involving minors at a foster care facility. The Epstein section specifically notes he was left without a cellmate contrary to policy and was not observed for approximately 9 hours before his death.

This document is an email chain from May 21, 2021, discussing a draft letter concerning a deferred prosecution agreement for two guards involved in the Epstein case, who were charged with falsifying records. The U.S. Attorney's Office is seeking confirmation from DOJ-OIG regarding how to represent the ongoing OIG investigation and potential public report in the letter. The emails show communication between the U.S. Attorney's Office, Southern District of New York, and an individual potentially from the OIG, regarding the sensitive nature of the report and interviews with the guards.
EFTA00024810.pdf
An email from the Chief of the Public Corruption Unit at the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) to an unknown recipient regarding the OIG report on Jeffrey Epstein's suicide. The email discusses an urgent need to coordinate language for a public letter announcing a deferred prosecution agreement with the two guards charged with falsifying records, noting that the guards have agreed to be interviewed by DOJ-OIG.
EFTA00014902.pdf
This document is an Urgent Matter Report (UMR) from the USAO-SDNY dated June 29, 2021, detailing the imminent release of approximately 2,700 pages of Bureau of Prisons records to The New York Times following FOIA litigation. The release includes internal memos, psychological records showing Epstein received special treatment and manipulated staff, an autopsy report, and details regarding institutional failures at MCC. The documents were previously withheld due to the criminal prosecution of guards Tova Noel and Michael Thomas, which concluded with deferred prosecution agreements.
EFTA00013391.pdf
This document is an urgent internal report dated June 29, 2021, from the USAO-SDNY regarding the imminent release of 2,700 pages of BOP documents to The New York Times as part of FOIA litigation. The release was previously blocked by the criminal prosecution of guards Tova Noel and Michael Thomas, but following their deferred prosecution agreements in May 2021, the documents—including internal memos on security failures, psychological records, and the autopsy report—were scheduled for release on July 2, 2021. The report highlights specific content to be released, including details about a defaced sign in the SHU signed by 'God' and evidence of Epstein manipulating staff.
EFTA00009786.pdf
This document is a Deferred Prosecution Agreement for Michael Thomas, a Bureau of Prisons guard charged in connection with the events surrounding Jeffrey Epstein's death. Thomas admits to willfully falsifying 'count and round slips' at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) on August 9 and 10, 2019. In exchange for deferring prosecution for six months, Thomas agrees to 100 hours of community service, cooperation with federal investigators (FBI, DOJ-OIG), and good behavior.

This page is from a legal filing (Document 35, filed 04/24/20) in the case against Thomas (likely Michael Thomas, a guard involved in the Epstein case). The prosecution argues that Thomas is not entitled to draft OIG reports under Rule 16 or Brady obligations. Furthermore, the text argues Thomas has failed to meet the burden of proof required to demand discovery to support a 'selective prosecution' claim, specifically failing to prove discriminatory intent or effect regarding his charges relative to rampant conduct within the Bureau of Prisons.
DOJ-OGR-00022090.jpg
This legal document is a portion of a court filing arguing against a motion made by an individual named Thomas. The prosecution contends that a draft report and related work product from the Department of Justice's Office of the Inspector General (DOJ-OIG) concerning Jeffrey Epstein's incarceration are protected by the deliberative process privilege and should not be disclosed. The filing asserts that while underlying materials have been provided, Thomas's claim for additional information is speculative and unsupported.
DOJ-OGR-00022088.jpg
This legal document is a portion of a government filing arguing against a defendant's (Thomas) motion for discovery. The government contends that searching for certain records from the BOP, CIA, and Vice President's office would be an undue burden and that a draft Inspector General report is not subject to disclosure because it is not material to the defense and is protected by deliberative process privilege. The government states the report is not yet complete and the prosecution team has no involvement in its creation.
DOJ-OGR-00022086.jpg
This legal document is a filing by the Government arguing against a discovery request from a defendant named Thomas. The Government contends that it is not required to produce records from the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) because the BOP was not part of the prosecution team or involved in a 'joint investigation'. The document distinguishes the roles of the prosecution (U.S. Attorney's Office, FBI, DOJ-OIG) from the BOP, noting the Government obtained BOP records via subpoena and was not involved in the BOP's internal investigation into Epstein's suicide.
DOJ-OGR-00022070.jpg
This document is page 8 of a court filing (Document 35) from April 2020 regarding the criminal case against correctional officers Noel and Thomas. It details the charges related to their failure to perform prisoner counts at the MCC SHU between August 9 and 10, 2019 (the night of Jeffrey Epstein's death) and their falsification of records. It also outlines the timeline of pretrial discovery, noting that the Government provided surveillance video, computer analysis, and interview reports to the defense.
DOJ-OGR-00022069.jpg
This document is page 7 of a government legal filing (Document 35) from April 24, 2020, in the case against Michael Thomas and Tova Noel (the guards on duty when Jeffrey Epstein died). The prosecution argues against Thomas's motion to compel the production of BOP records and a DOJ-OIG draft report, stating these materials are irrelevant, not in the prosecution's possession, or privileged. The document also restates the facts of the November 19, 2019 indictment charging the defendants with conspiracy and making false records.
