Epstein/Washington Post question From [b(6), (b)(7)(C)] To BOP-IPP/PublicAffairs@bop.gov, Lee Plourde Date 2019/08/26 15:00 Subject: Epstein/Washington Post question Attachments: TEXT.htm, Mime.822 Hi— [b(6), (b)(7)(C)] from the Washington Post here. We are in the process of working on a story about the cameras outside Jeffrey Epstein’s cell on the morning of his death. The story will assert that the data in those cameras was found to be corrupted/unreadable, though it is being sent to Quantico for further analysis. Can the BOP comment on that assertion? Is the functionality of cameras a larger issue at BOP or MCC? Are you able to say what other cameras might have captured that night to support the assertion that Mr. Epstein killed himself? Thank you, [b(6), (b)(7)(C)] | The Washington Post (202) 629-[b(6)] (cell) Page 580 DOJ-OGR-00023543
