Summary

This document is an email chain between the US Attorney's Office (SDNY) and the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) legal staff coordinating a high-level site visit to the MCC on August 15, 2019, shortly after Jeffrey Epstein's death. The visitors, including US Attorney Geoffrey Berman and Principal Deputy Attorney General O'Callahan, requested to see the 2nd-floor suicide watch area, the 9th-floor SHU, and Epstein's cell (noted as still cordoned off).
