Good afternoon-¶
Thank you for the response.¶
To avoid repeated, inappropriate touching of Ms. Maxwell’s breasts during¶
numerous daily pat-down searches, we are requesting the guards avoid touching and brushing over her breasts while she is wearing a thin tee shirt.¶
We request that Ms. Maxwell be permitted to wear her khaki v-neck top during pat searches.¶
The v points directly to the area where Ms. Maxwell should be searched and minimizes¶
unnecessary exposure and feeling of vulnerability occurring several times per day.¶
Enjoy the weekend.¶

As you noted Ms. Maxwell has continuously been produced in advance of
¶
12:30 PM. In addition, I would like to note that while Ms. Maxwell was
¶
produced after the scheduled time (twice), the additional time was
¶
provided to compensate for the delay. Please understand that while we
¶
are working to ensure all inmates are produced for their court and legal
¶
calls, there are institutional emergencies that require additional
¶
assistance, causing staff to slightly deviate from time frames.
¶
Should you request a copy of the incident report, Ms. Maxwell may
¶
provide you with it, however I cannot. I can further assure you that
¶
the daily searches are consistent with BOP Program Statement § 552.06,
¶
Searches of Housing Units, Inmates, and Inmate Work Areas. It is my
¶
understanding that gloves and masks were recently brought to the unit.
¶
Any further concerns you have indicated will be reviewed and addressed
¶
accordingly if need be.
¶
For the past two days, Ms. Maxwell has not been on time for the daily
¶
12:30 VTCs. Yesterday, she arrived at 12:59; today she arrived at
¶
12:47. Until yesterday, Ms. Maxwell appeared in advance of 12:30. We
¶
appreciate ▼ ‘s assistance in facilitating Ms. Maxwell’s
¶
appearance, but no explanation has been provided for these delays..
¶
Each delay limits the time Ms. Maxwell can confer with counsel. We hope
¶
this will not be repeated and is not retribution for complaints made by
¶
EFTA00101946¶
counsel.
¶
We learned today that the complaint report issued to Ms. Maxwell
¶
earlier this week has now been revised. I renew my request for the
¶
original report and request a copy
¶
of the updated report.
¶
This morning at 6:40 am, the team leader ordered Ms. Maxwell to clean a
¶
toilet, providing a few paper towels,
¶
but no gloves, sending a clear message that Ms. Maxwell should clean
¶
the toilet bare handed, despite having cleaned the toilet the night
¶
before. Gloves were provided only upon request by Ms. Maxwell. Per the
¶
A&O Handbook, sanitation duties commence at 7:30 am for pretrial inmates
¶
(See A&O, p.4). We request that Ms. Maxwell be permitted to perform
¶
sanitation duties in the evening when returned to her isolation cell.
¶
Further, the team leader ordered Ms. Maxwell to clean crumbs from her
¶
bed. Lest she face another charge of being untidy, Ms. Maxwell
¶
attempted to comply but there were no crumbs - just stains on the
¶
blanket issued to her. This is another example of the petty
¶
officiousness displayed by the present team.
¶
The ear searches continue. Routinely, in connection with open mouth
¶
searches, guards run fingers through Ms. Maxwell’s hair and behind her
¶
ears, at times before she gets a chance to put on her face mask. These
¶
searches - conducted within 6 inches of Ms.Maxwell’s face- continue to
¶
increase her risk of exposure to COVID. The number of daily searches of
¶
Ms. Maxwell, an isolated inmate under constant surveillance by multiple
¶
guards, seems excessive and unnecessarily violative..
