This document is a legal declaration by Nicole McFarland, a Staff Attorney at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC), filed on August 5, 2020, in the case of The New York Times v. Federal Bureau of Prisons. It details the steps taken by MCC staff to search for records requested under FOIA regarding Jeffrey Epstein, including SHU logs, video footage, suicide watch records, and phone logs. McFarland testifies that critical evidence, such as SHU logs and video footage, was transferred to the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) and the FBI in August 2019, and that no recordings of Epstein's phone calls exist.
