Episode Details

In a sworn interview with DOJ Office of Inspector General investigators conducted on June 14, 2021, an unnamed lieutenant and former correctional officer from MCC New York was questioned as part of the investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s death and the broader security failures surrounding his incarceration. The interview began with investigators explicitly stating that the probe focused not only on Epstein’s death itself, but also “everything that surrounds that time,” including job performance failures and security breakdowns. The correctional officer agreed to a voluntary interview under oath and spent much of the early questioning outlining his career history, including prior work as a New York City probation officer, a brief stint with New York State corrections, and his transfer to MCC New York in 2013 after beginning his BOP career at Allenwood in Pennsylvania.


The deposition is another piece of the sprawling federal effort to reconstruct exactly what happened inside MCC New York before Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his cell on August 10, 2019. Investigators were clearly trying to map out the staffing structure, chain of command, and personnel who were present during the chaotic period surrounding Epstein’s incarceration, including after his first alleged suicide attempt.
