Beschrijving

The document is a sworn OIG interview transcript from June 15, 2021, involving the Bureau of Prisons captain who oversaw security operations at MCC New York during the period surrounding Jeffrey Epstein’s death. The captain described the command structure inside the jail, including his role supervising lieutenants and reporting up to associate wardens or the warden, while investigators walked him through staffing, rosters, post assignments, suicide-watch procedures, SHU operations, and the chain of responsibility on August 9–10, 2019. The transcript is important because it does not present Epstein’s death as a clean, orderly institutional event; instead, it shows a jail struggling with bad staffing, confusing handoffs, unfilled posts, questionable paperwork, and a command structure where critical responsibilities appear to have been either missed, misunderstood, or passed around. The most serious value of the interview is in the irregularities it surfaces. The captain reportedly discussed inaccurate rosters or logs, acknowledged questions around skipped SHU rounds, addressed the fact that Epstein had previously been on suicide watch, and said he would not necessarily have known in real time if officers were failing to conduct required checks. Even more troubling, he expressed concern that certain documents may have been deliberately removed from files that should have been reviewed or audited, and investigators also raised an inmate-count issue involving an inmate named Reyes, whose release may not have been properly reflected in the institution’s count — something the captain treated as a protocol violation. Taken together, the transcript adds another layer to the larger Epstein death record: not a single clean explanation, but a bureaucratic mess of missing or questionable documentation, staffing failures, broken supervision, and institutional chaos at precisely the moment when the most high-profile federal inmate in America was supposed to be under careful control. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: EFTA00111830.pdf [https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%209/EFTA00111830.pdf]

Mega Edition: The Warden's Statement Detailing The Death Of Jeffrey Epstein (Part 8-10) (6/14/26)

Lamine N'Diaye, in his interview with the Office of the Inspector General, essentially tried to turn the Metropolitan Correctional Center into a scapegoat while positioning himself as a bystander to its failures. He leaned heavily on the narrative that the facility was already broken—staff shortages, overtime abuse, infrastructure decay—as if that somehow absolved him of responsibility rather than underscoring the urgency of his role. What stands out is not just what he admitted, but what he avoided: there is little evidence in his account of decisive leadership, no clear record of aggressive intervention, and no meaningful acknowledgment that the buck was supposed to stop with him. Instead, he described a system failing in slow motion while he remained at the helm, fully aware of the cracks but unwilling—or unable—to reinforce them before they gave way. Even more troubling is how his interview reflects a pattern of deflection that mirrors broader institutional behavior in the wake of Jeffrey Epstein’s death. N’Diaye pointed to correctional officers missing rounds, falsifying logs, and working under extreme fatigue, but failed to explain why those conditions were tolerated under his command, especially after Epstein had already been flagged as a high-risk inmate following a prior incident. The responsibility didn’t disappear into the system—it sat squarely in his office, and his testimony reads less like accountability and more like damage control. The overall picture is not of a warden overwhelmed by circumstances, but of a leader who allowed a known crisis environment to persist unchecked, then attempted to retroactively frame it as inevitable once the worst-case scenario unfolded. to contact me: bobbycapucci@protonmail.com source: EFTA00119019.pdf [https://www.justice.gov/epstein/files/DataSet%209/EFTA00119019.pdf]
