I think your summary was accurate.¶
We are working it together, but my assumption is the IG review will have to go further into policy/procedures, potential management deficiencies at facility. A judge has previously been on record about concerns re: conditions at the facility and city plains from various counsel. In this instance we immediately opened and went to scene. Joined later by OIG after AG directed them to engage. No issues up here that I am aware.¶

Is this a joint investigation, or are we running parallels?¶

FYSA, from SDNY:¶
I received a call tonight IG who had agents at the MCC today with the FBI. Contrary to what the FBI was told, there are, in fact, logs kept of the 30-minute rounds of the prisoners in the SHU. The guard responsible for performing the checks on Epstein filled out and initialed the log indicating that she made her rounds. However, she admitted to the first responders that she had not, in fact, made her rounds.¶
We are opening an 18 USC 1001 investigation on the guard’s submission of a false report, which investigation will be worked on by agents from OIG and FBI.¶
