Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
0:03
Epstein Chronicles. In this episode, we're going to begin taking
0:08
a look at the Tova Noel deposition that she gave
0:11
to the OIG investigators as part of the investigation into
0:16
the death of Jeffrey Epstein. So we're going to skip
0:20
over all of the swearing in and all of that
0:23
and we're just going to dive in. So once again,
0:27
the person asking questions has his name or adacted, and
0:31
Tovin Noel's lawyer is named mister Foy, So when mister
0:36
Foy interjects and you hear me say Foy, that's what
0:39
I'm talking about. And she also has a second attorney
0:42
with her, mister Sarahga, So when either of them objected,
0:50
I'll make sure to notate that as we're making our
0:52
way through this. And the final person that's involved in
0:55
this is miss greg who is part of the union
0:59
I believe or the corrections officer Toavi Noel redacted, Thank
1:05
you everyone, Miss Noel, you're here today as a subject
1:09
in this DOJ OIG investigation. This DOJ OIG investigation concerns
1:15
your allegedmisconduct to include allegations of false statements, job performance failure,
1:20
security failure, and reporting false information. This is an official
1:24
DOJ OIG investigation, and you're being asked to voluntarily provide
1:30
answers to our questions. Will you agree to voluntarily interview
1:34
with the DOJ OIG, Miss Noel, Yes question? All right, great,
1:39
And then everybody that does voluntary interviews with the DOJ,
1:43
we provide them with voluntary interview forms. I don't know
1:47
if you guys were sent that at the time, but
1:49
it says United States Department of Justice, Office of the
1:53
Inspector General, Warnings and Assurances to employee requested to provide
1:58
information on a voluntary basis. You're being asked to provide
2:02
information as part of an investigation being conducted by the
2:05
Office of the Inspector General. This investigations being conducted pursuant
2:11
to the Inspector General Act of nineteen seventy eight, as amended.
2:16

false information. This is a voluntary interview. Accordingly, you do
2:30
not have to answer questions. No disciplinary action will be
2:33
taken against you if you choose not to answer questions.
2:37
Any statement that you furnish may be used as evidence

in any future criminal proceeding or agency disciplinary proceedings, or both,
2:45
And of course there's the DPA waiver. I understand the
2:49
warnings and assurances started above or stated above, and I'm
2:53
willing to make a statement or answer questions. No promises
2:56
or threats have been made to me, and no pressure
2:59

3:03
You can take a look at this and review it
3:06
if you agree. There's a section there for your name
3:09
and signature. FOI. So the only thing that this is
3:12
actually subject to is the defer prosecution agreement redacted. Well,
3:17
so there's the agreement that you had. So that's the
3:20
part where I'm talking about, the specific part where it
3:22
says criminal. That's something I think that was worked out
3:27
with the US Attorney's Office, FOI, right exactly. I know
3:31
there is no sort of protection with regard to the
3:34
disciplinary internally, the administrative thing will happen at some point,
3:39
but I just wanted to make that clearer. But go ahead.
3:41
You can sign TOVA redacted. Now obviously that is pursuing
3:46
to you answering questions truthfully. Foy, right, of course, that's
3:50
the exception to our agreement. Noel, uh huh, redacted, all right,
3:56
and the rest will be filled out by the two
3:58
of us. Foy okay, redacted, and thank you for signing,
4:02
Miss Noel. All right. So I'm going to sign where
4:04
it says signature of the Office of the Inspector General
4:08

4:15
of the signature of witness name a witness, date, time,
4:19
and place, mister adacted. This is agent redacted signing on
4:23
the signature of witness redacted. And then do you understand
4:27
the form as you read and you review? Noel, yes,

14:05
We're going to wrap up with the first episode here
14:08
and in the next episode dealing with the topic, we're
14:10
going to pick up where we left off. All the
14:13
information that goes with this episode can be found in
14:16
the description box. What's up, everyone, and welcome to another
14:20
episode of the Epstein Chronicles. In this episode again right
14:24
back to that tovin Owell interview with the OIG investigators redacted.
14:30
And now you mentioned that you didn't quite remember them

14:49
And what does I have stand for? Noel? Huh redacted?
14:55

15:00
Just what it stands for? Institution familiarization training redacted? Okay, great,
15:06
and that's something that the MCC provided directly, Miss Noel Yes, redacted, okay, great.
15:14
And then you had mentioned did you ever receive policy
15:17
on counts and rounds? Noel no redacted? I know you
15:23
said you certified, do you remember that specific policy like
15:27
receiving that, Noel, like specifically on counts and rounds redacted.
15:33
I'm not asking you to, like verbatim, tell me what
15:35
it was. I'm just saying, like where you provided and
15:38
you reviewed reviewed it. Do you remember, Noel, not specifically
15:42
on counts and rounds? Just like a general she gets
15:45
cut off, right, Noel, Like she gets cut off again,
15:49
like you know, the housing orders or unit policy and
15:52
things like that, when you're supposed to conduct counts, when
15:55
you're supposed to do rounds, that type of thing redacted,
15:59
the post orders redacted post orders? Right? Okay, great, you
16:04
mentioned you didn't remember ever going to quarterly shoe training.
16:08
This is a sign in cheat for quarterly shoe training.
16:12
Is this your signature on there? For June twenty sixth,
16:14
twenty nineteen, Noel, You see how I'm last one on
16:19
the bottom of all of them redacted? Correct, Noel, because
16:22
I wasn't at the training when I came redacted? Did
16:25
they provide it to you? One on one though, Noel?
16:27
No redacted? So I'll come he gets cut off by Noel.
16:32
Because when I came back from an injury, the lieutenant
16:35
asked me to sign because they had program review. They
16:38
need to show that I received the training, but I
16:41
never did. She just asked me to sign. That's why
16:44
I wonder why redacted? Who asked you to do that? Noel?
16:47
Lieutenant redacted redacted? So that supervisor you mentioned was your
16:52
first line supervisor asked you to sign without providing you
16:55
the training Noel, yes, redacted. And she didn't like provide
16:59
you anything to review, Noel, no redacted. She didn't go
17:04
over anything with you, Noel, no redacted. Did you discuss
17:08
this with her, that how you can sign something without
17:11
being provided the training? Noel. Well, I just told her
17:15
I wasn't here. I was out on an injury. She
17:18
said she knows, but she needed me to sign because
17:21
they needed for a program review. Redacted. What's her first name? Noel? Redacted? Question?
17:28
And is she a lieutenant? Noel. I don't know what
17:31
she is now, but she is not at MCC anymore.
17:34
She's somewhere in Jersey redacted. I'm sorry before you go.
17:38
Are you done with that question? Redacted? Actually let me
17:43
I didn't do this and I did forget to do this.
17:47
There's an advisory to the union representative redacted. Mm hmm question,
17:52
can you review this? And I do apologize, but since
17:55
you're speaking up a little bit, let me hand this
17:57
to you and then you can review that, and then
18:00
if you want to just take a look. After you're
18:02
done reviewing, you may sign it if you agree. Redacted.
18:06
Will you be able to give me a copy of it? Question? Yeah?
18:10
I think it says on that that there will be
18:12
forwarded a copy to you. Redacted. I didn't even see
18:15
that part. Question Should I continue asking questions while she's
18:19
reviewing that? Or do you want to wait? Foy? Yeah,
18:22
you can ask questions absolutely redacted. Sure. So there's another
18:26
training that you It says that you conducted on July
18:29
twenty sixth, twenty nineteen, for shoe suicide prevention training. Do
18:34
you also not receive that training? Noel? Yeah, I didn't redacted.
18:39
You did not receive that training, Noel? No redacted? Did
18:42
you receive so there are slides in the back that
18:45
showed the training and how they conducted it. Did they
18:48
provide you with those slides? Noel? No, because I wasn't there, redacted.
18:54
You weren't there, Noel, I was out with an injury. Redacted. Okay,
18:58
when were you out with an injury. What are the dates,
19:01
Noel from March twenty nineteen. I came back in June.
19:05
So when I came back in June, that's when I
19:07
was told to sign this redacted. Okay, question, all right,
19:11
thank you for signing the advisory to union representative redacted.
19:18
I'm just going to sign that form as name of
19:21
OIG special Agent. Again, I do apologize for not providing
19:24
that upfront. Noel, I want to call because indiscernible. I'm
19:30
just saying that, Well, I know that the dynamics or
19:33
that I should interrupt you in the middle of a question,
19:36
but interrupt or answering a question. So I was just
19:38
asking were you done, because I wanted to just step
19:41
out for a second. Redacted. You want to step out, Noel?
19:45
Uh huh? Redacted? Okay, we don't want to interrupt the
19:48
interview because we have a lot of questions to get through. Redacted.
19:51
H question. If the attorney's asked that, that's not really
19:55
but if you would like to redacted. So, based on
19:58
the agreement we just signed, right redacted, Sure, the union
20:03
rep it acknowledges the right to have me representing her,
20:05
and part of those rights are the ability to assist
20:08
in representing her right and so I don't want to dispute,
20:12
and I don't want to hold up the processes at all.
20:14
I just want to say something to her. Redacted. Sure,
20:17
let that redacted do that this time. But if this
20:21
continues to happen, I'm going to have to give you
20:23
a different form that says you can stay here voluntarily
20:25
if you want, but we're going to ask you not
20:28
to interrupt the interview, and if you do, we're going
20:31
to ask her if she wants to continue with the
20:33
interview without you misredacted. So, but that form says something
20:39
contrary to what you're saying, redacted, I'm going to give
20:42
you a different form that says that I'm going to
20:44
let you interrupt the interview now to talk to her
20:47
out there, and if you do it again, I'm going
20:49
to ask you not to be here any longer so
20:52
that we can continue with the interview. Obviously, her attorneys
20:55
would stay here. So I just want to make sure
20:58
that we don't just continue misredacted. I just need clarity, then,
21:04
I need clarity redacted. Sure, misredacted. So the representing of
21:09
and talking to the employee who I have the right
21:11
to represent is considered by you an interruption of the interview.
21:15
Mister adacted. We haven't even gotten to the questions yet, misredacted. Well,
21:20
she gets cut off by the OIG investigator. Yes, we
21:23
need to continue with the interview, but we're now. I
21:26
can allow you to do that now. I'm just not
21:29
going to be able to allow you to continue to
21:31
stop the interview and leave the room misredacted. I'm just
21:35
asking for clarity, right, So it was kind of he
21:37
cuts her off, sure, absolutely, misredacted, And I don't mean
21:41
to be difficult. It kind of was yes or no.
21:45
So you're saying to me, based on the document that
21:47
I signed, mister adacted, I'm saying that you can assist
21:50
her redacted. I didn't get to mister sure, go ahead, misredacted. Okay,
21:57
so you're saying, based on the document that I signed,
21:59
it's I right to represent the employee, which is asking
22:03
to caucus and say something to miss Noel is interrupting
22:06
the interview even though I have the right to do
22:08
so based on the document I signed, mister adacted, it's
22:12
more for her to be able to ask you for
22:15
a question redacted. So it's just a yes or no.
22:20
The interviewer. Oh oh, no, no, I'm the one that's
22:23
leading the interview here. So if she stops and ask
22:25
you for clarity, absolutely you stopping to inform her. No, redacted,
22:29
I never identified to you that I would be informing
22:32
her of anything, mister adacted. Okay, but so yes, to
22:36
answer your question, you can be here to represent her
22:40

23:20
Uh huh, I'm asking you not to interrupt my questions. Misredacted. Okay,
23:25
it doesn't make sense to me what I'm interpreting is

a question. That's what you're saying to me. Redacted. Correct.
23:38

They're directed at miss Noel misredacted. I'm not answering questions.
24:09
I'm just trying to I'm representing her. But I understand
24:12
that there has been a determination of how I'm able
24:14
to represent, and so redacted deal with that in a
24:17
different venue. You can move forward, mister redacted, All right,
24:21
let me read this real quick in the paperwork, so
24:24
that we're not going to have any disputes. Misredacted, We
24:29
don't have to. You don't have to continue, right because
24:31
I don't want to interrupt. So you can go forward
24:34
and ask questions. Redacted. Okay, So it just says that
24:38
you may not attempt to answer the questions or dictate
24:41
the employee's actions, to question or otherwise take charge of proceedings.

32:06
the shoe at the time. Noel, Lieutenant redacted, mister redacted.
32:11

32:29
question to her. Noel, okay, redacted. But if you need to, like, yeah,
32:34
that's fine. Redacted. Yeah, Noel, yeah, redacted. And if you
32:39

32:42
know redacted. Okay, No, no, that's a totally acceptable answer. Noel.
32:48
Uh huh, redacted. So yeah, if you know, if you
32:52
don't know something or you know something, that's great. You
32:54
don't really want to ask other people for the answers,
32:57
Noel right, redacted. Well, obviously, if you need to confer
33:02
and you know, with your attorneys or your union rep,
33:05
absolutely fine, But we just want to try to get
33:08
away from them answering for you. Noel, okay, redacted. All right,
33:13
and then from your recollection though you don't remember receiving
33:16
shoe training during the annual refresher training Noel, no redacted. No, Okay,
33:22
did you receive training on how to conduct rounds? Noel? Yes, redacted?
33:27
And when was that Noel? In if redacted in if Noel, yep?
33:34
Question okay? And what did it teach you about conducting rounds? Noel?
33:39
That you need two people to count and conduct rounds,
33:42
and one person goes and counts, the other person goes
33:45
and counts, and then you confirm the numbers of counting.
33:50
Question Okay, Noel, and make sure when you're counting that
33:54
you're counting everybody standing at their bed when you're counting. Redacted. Okay,
33:59
And did you see suicide prevention training during the mcc
34:03
annual refresher training Noel, I don't recall redacted. Question You
34:08
don't recall, Noel. Uh huh. Question Okay, what was your
34:13
understanding if an inmate was placed, you know, is suicidal
34:17
or placed on suicide watch? What was your understanding of
34:20
how you should treat those inmates? Noel? If an inmate
34:23
is placed on suicide watch, I don't deal with them.
34:26
They go downstairs to suicide watch and they're being watched
34:29
by other inmates. Question Uh huh, Noel. But and then
34:35
when they're cleared, they come back to the unit question,
34:39
and you're trained, are you supposed to handle them differently
34:43
when they come back to the unit? Noel? Uh huh
34:45
no redacted. You're not, Noel, You're not question. You're not
34:51
supposed to handle them differently, Noel, No question, not at all, Noel,
34:57
because they're cleared to come back. Question Okay, Noel, So
35:01
once you're cleared, you're back to normal. Redacted. Okay. And
35:05
were you assigned to the shoe on August ninth and
35:07
tenth all of twenty nineteen? Noel, yes, redacted. Do you
35:12
recall what time you began working on the shoe on
35:15
August ninth, Noel four to midnight redacted for to midnight,
35:20
and then on August tenth, it was Noel midnight to
35:23
eight in the morning. Question. Okay, you said again that
35:28
was your quarterly bitted post. Noel, yes, redacted. Quarterly assignment.
35:33
And what were your overall duties and responsibilities when you
35:37
were assigned to the shoe? Noel. It varies. Because I'm
35:41
new and because I don't know how to run the shoe.
35:44
I just always rely on the senior person that I'm
35:46
working with. So even if the roster reflects that I'm
35:49
the senior officer. Because sometimes I'm assigned to the shoe,
35:53
I don't do what shoe is supposed to do because
35:56
I don't know how to do it. I rely on
35:58
the senior officer that I'm working with. Question. Okay, so
36:02
you didn't really know what your duties and responsibilities were.
36:06
Is that what you're saying? Noel, in the shoe like
36:10
to give out food, to collect the trays, to give
36:12
out linen, collect linen. Whenever we would go down range
36:15
to give out those, we count that as around to
36:18
make sure the inmates are good. You shower every other day.
36:22
Count that's it. Redacted. So rounds and counts are part
36:26
of that though, Noel, rounds and counts are part of it.
36:29
But I never worked in the shoe and actually done rounds.
36:32
Every thirty minutes we go downrange to do stuff, and
36:35
we count it as around. Redacted. Perfect. That's going to
36:39
be something that we're going to discuss, Noel, uh huh,
36:43
redacted and ask you things like who told you that?
36:47
And howses that you know? Who should have provided you
36:50
with the proper training and information on how it was
36:53
technically supposed to be done. Noel, uh huh, redacted. Question
36:58
and were there any required special requirements for inmates who
37:02
were assigned to the shoe Noel, I don't know. Question
37:06
that's fine. Do inmates in the Shoe have cell mates? Noel? Yes?
37:10
Question okay? And are they required to have a cell mate? Noel,
37:14
I'm not sure. Question you're not sure? Noel? Uh huh
37:19
redacted question. And do you know why they wouldn't have
37:22
a cell mate? Noel, I don't know. Question did you
37:25
ever were you ever told it's because another inmate could
37:29
harm that inmate, or there were certain classifications of inmates.
37:33
They never just discuss that with you, Noel? No question? Okay.
37:38
No did you ever see training on medical emergencies with inmates? Noel? No,
37:44
I just know, like if you were making around and
37:46
something happens to an inmate, you call and you wait
37:49
for somebody to come before you enter the cell. That's
37:52
all I know. Question Okay, But did you were you
37:56
provided like CPR training or any kind of like you know,
37:59
if something were to happen in front of you, how
38:02
would you respond? Noel, Yes, we also need bear training redacted? Okay.
38:09
And when would you conduct training like that CPR training
38:13
or you know, if someone is trying to kill themselves
38:15
or something like that. When did you receive the training?
38:18
How would you respond to a medical emergency? Noel? That
38:21
was in if? Question if as well? Noel? Uh huh?

38:39
to the shoe Noel? Yes? Question? Okay? Do you know
38:43
what he was at the MCC four and why he
38:46
was incarcerated by the BOP? Noel. Actually, I didn't even
38:50
know who he was when I work with him. It
38:53
was the other coworker that told me who he was.
38:56
I didn't know who he was. Question and who well?
39:00
As in I knew his name, but I didn't know

And I said no, And he was like he's in
39:31
the news every day, and I was like, Okay, I
39:34
