I too have been in touch with (b)(6); (b)(7)(C) since a little after 9 am, at which time I shared the limited information I had. The press release is the sum total of the information we have at this time pending the investigation. I am going into the secure perimeter to see if there is more information to share, but please be advised that some of what I get may be shared with your office but not further since it is an open investigation. Thank you, (b)(6); (b)(7)(C) Supervisory Staff Attorney CLC New York Metropolitan Correctional Center 150 Park Row New York, New York 10007 p: (646)836 (b)(6); (b)(7)(C) f.

When can we expect to get either some sort of statement we can pass along to counsel as accurate and reliable or have a call with someone? I understand from the Marshals that they have been unsuccessful in reaching anyone with authority at BOP, and given the BOP press release that was just put out I assume we need to speak with someone there. Please advise. Thank you.
