Subject: FW: MCC New York (Procedural Review)¶
Hello Everyone,¶
Our HQ staff was contacted by the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) in association with the matters concerning the Epstein/MCC case, and informed that they would like to convene a Board of Inquiry that would review the operations at the MCC NY. I have been asked to share this with the investigative and prosecution team for opinion and consideration. I requested that the BOP provide us with some specific information and details about what this would include and we were provided with the below information and attached Program Statement. Can you all please review this information and then can one representative from the FBI and one representative from the U.S. Attorney’s Office, SDNY, let us know your¶
| office’s position regarding this matter? I have included SAC | and ASAC | of our Operations Branch I |
|---|---|---|
| (OPS I) in this email as they deal directly with the BOP HQ. Thank you all. |

Hi • -¶
The BOP would like to convene a Board of Inquiry (relevant Program Statement attached) that would review operations generally at MCC New York. Among other issues, it will look at local policy and procedures related to special housing, review camera operations, and review training and staffing issues. This will not, of course, be a misconduct investigation. Should the Board come across anything that appears to be new misconduct allegations, they will be reported consistent with normal misconduct reporting requirements.¶
We are mindful of the on-going criminal investigation, and are aware that administrative charges may also arise connected to the criminal case. We will studiously avoid creating any sort of conflict with that case. Please let me know if you have additional questions or would like to discuss. Thanks in advance.¶
