💰 Financial Record

An internal Bureau of Prisons memorandum requesting 10% retention and 25% recruitment/relocation incentives for staff at MDC Brooklyn and MCC New York due to critical staffing shortages. The document highlights high vacancy rates (up to 15.5%), significant difficulty in hiring qualified candidates between 2016-2018 (e.g., only 12 hired out of 75 positions in FY2018), and staff attrition to other agencies or rural facilities like FCI Otisville. This provides context regarding the operational state of MCC New York, the facility where Jeffrey Epstein was later held.
