Latest / The Vault: The Epstein Files / Inside The OIG Interview: The Testimony Of An Unnamed MCC Lieutenant (Part 8) (5/6/26)
Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome to another episode of the
- 0:03Epstein Chronicles. In this episode, we're getting right back to
- 0:07the interview with the unamed lieutenant from MCC with the
- 0:11OIG investigators. Question. All right, now, this is the one
- 0:16that I really want you to look at. Look at
- 0:18this E one. This is now August tenth at midnight.
- 0:22Check out what it says for Za on E one.
- 0:25What number does that say? Answer seventy two question? All right,
- 0:30and check out the count slip answer what does the
- 0:33count slip say? Question? It says seventy three, So seventy three,
- 0:38But the top one that was clear it says seventy
- 0:41two right answer yeah, question, And I'll give you one more,
- 0:45just so it's not a magic trick. Look at this
- 0:47page first for the August tenth, and I have the
- 0:50rest of them too if you want to see them,
- 0:52but three am on August tenth. And then the last
- 0:55page where it says the count slip, what does it
- 0:57say on the E one? On the next one answer
- 1:01it says seventy two question? And on the E one
- 1:04and then what does the count slip say? Answer seventy
- 1:08two question. So, in looking at all of this does
- 1:11that tell you as a lieutenant and someone who worked
- 1:14in the shoe, does that tell you something? Answer? Yeah,
- 1:18But the thing is this one had up though question.
- 1:21That's exactly right. So we're trying to figure out where
- 1:25did this count change down to seventy two? And does
- 1:29it indicate to you that these counts were not actually
- 1:32conducted and that this is not that we have no
- 1:35reason to believe you were involved in this. So I
- 1:38want to make sure your we're actually just looking for
- 1:40your help here, as someone who worked in the shoe
- 1:43and someone that is familiar with these kinds of documents,
- 1:47can you help us put this puzzle together? So we
- 1:49have a reason to believe that they called in the
- 1:51midnight seventy three and the control lieutenant who was working
- 1:56that night figured out that there is actually only seventy
- 1:58two people in there. They've been calling in seventy three,
- 2:02but there's only seventy two people in the shoe. Is
- 2:05there any way from looking and that's from this point forward,
- 2:09they're now starting calling in seventy two? Is there any
- 2:12way from looking at these you're able to determine with
- 2:15your knowledge and experience where that changed. I would say
- 2:18that it changed from the ten o'clock count. This was
- 2:21printed at nine thirty three, so it has seventy three.
- 2:25And then at nine thirty three attorney conference ain't open,
- 2:28so Epstein would have probably been up by then. He
- 2:31would have went back to the shoe, so he would
- 2:35have been listed on Epstein would have been back at
- 2:38least by eight pm. Right answer, yeah, question, So that
- 2:43would have been he should have been on this one. Answer,
- 2:46so he threw it. Yeah question, And can you see
- 2:49where on let's talk about I guess that's the one
- 2:52before the five pm the four pm answer, Yeah, it
- 2:56would have been the attorney conference. Yeah question, and it
- 2:59would have showed them at the attorney conference on one
- 3:02of these correct on the e one answer, yeah, at
- 3:05three o'clock at attorney conference. Well from shoe question and
- 3:10then does it show that he's already in shoe in
- 3:12this one? Is there any way an attorney conference at
- 3:15the ten pm count? Answer? No? But see what I
- 3:19was telling you before about the numbers. See how I
- 3:22had seventy six question yep answer, and this is at
- 3:28the four o'clock count, and then it went down to
- 3:30seventy three question right answer, So you don't know until
- 3:34after the count about the whole cellmate coming back? Question right,
- 3:38But then the weird part about it is going from
- 3:42seventy three to seventy two with no movement, so we
- 3:46don't know. Okay, so they're taking off, you know, if
- 3:49they're going from what does it say, seventy six down
- 3:52to seventy three, that's three people and one person vanishes
- 3:57when it gets to seventy two. Are you able to
- 4:00tell where that person vanished from? Or is it impossible?
- 4:03Because possibly all these counts were not conducted, and that
- 4:07I know you weren't here for any of these counts apparently,
- 4:10so it's again I'm just asking for your guidance. Is
- 4:13that correct? You weren't even working when any of these
- 4:16counts were conducted? Answer yeah, Well if I was, you
- 4:20said four? Right? Answer well, you possibly worked up until
- 4:23four answer yeah. Question but he gets cut off by
- 4:27the lieutenant. So I wasn't here. I wasn't there for
- 4:30count question right, So again I want to reassure you,
- 4:34this is not a gotcha moment. We're just trying to help.
- 4:39He gets cut off by the lieutenant. No, no, but
- 4:41you know it feels like it. Question yeah, yeah, And
- 4:46I get that because you've got special agents talking to you.
- 4:49It's just all about trying to piece the puzzle together.
- 4:52So we need help with people like yourself to be
- 4:55able to say what the hell happened? You know what
- 4:58I mean? Answer yeah, Well, well there's also three here
- 5:02from indiscernible I mean, I think question and we've had others,
- 5:07and you just he gets cut off by the lieutenant. Oh,
- 5:11they hadn't keyed them out, but then they would have
- 5:14keyed them out. R and D leaves at ten. They
- 5:17leave at ten. Now they could have left somebody on
- 5:19and they came out, because like you said, it's no movement.
- 5:23The only way you get it is you key out
- 5:27like ki a guy unless somebody went to the hospital
- 5:29or something. Answer yeah, and if there is nothing that happened,
- 5:33but no inmates were moved after ten pm? If we
- 5:36know that, does this indicate that we're just going off
- 5:39on numbers and just falsifying their accounts or are you
- 5:43able to tell by looking at these all if these
- 5:46counts are legit or not. Are you able to kind
- 5:49of like give us any insight into that answer? I mean,
- 5:52the one with the plus one is the question, because
- 5:55I don't see why they would. Then again, you've got
- 5:58R and D with the plus one two I don't know.
- 6:00I don't know what's going on. They got R and
- 6:02D indiscernible sell plus one question And by looking at
- 6:07that person in R and D, are you able to
- 6:09tell who it is? Answer? Huh? Question not by looking
- 6:13at the name? Answer? Not by looking at the name.
- 6:16I mean there's no outcount. Don't have the outcount question?
- 6:21Don't have the outcount? Is that what you're saying? Answer? Yeah?
- 6:24Question and what time is that for? Answer? Well, you
- 6:28don't have the count out question? No, what time are
- 6:31you looking at? Answer? This one's for ten? Question? So
- 6:34the ten PM doesn't even have an outcount on it. Answer,
- 6:38I mean it don't add up. Because yes, something's not
- 6:42right because R and D is not on here unless
- 6:44they moved. I mean sometime they have a ghost count.
- 6:47But he gets cut off by the investigator. And what
- 6:50does a ghost count mean? The lieutenant So like the
- 6:53guy in medical, they say, hey, I didn't have time
- 6:56to key him in, but I'm verifying that he's down
- 6:58there or down here with me and put them on
- 7:01my account. Question So R and D does that say
- 7:05ninety five plus one. Answer it could say ninety five,
- 7:09or it could say nine south. Question oh, nine south
- 7:12plus one? The other investigator pipes in, what's nine south?
- 7:17Answer the shoe question? Now, this name to me looks
- 7:21like redacted? So is that somebody's name? Answer? Yeah, that's
- 7:25an officer question. So if someone was placed in R
- 7:28and D and someone was told to watch that person there,
- 7:31would the person at ten pm? Would they be able
- 7:34to see, like a dry cell, someone was still sitting
- 7:37there at night? Answer well, yeah, because you could watch
- 7:41them down there. Yeah. Question and is that like a
- 7:44small indiscernible Is it kind of like you'd be able
- 7:48to that person would know if somebody was there or not?
- 7:52Answer yeah, because someone could have come in before the
- 7:56count too. A US marshal could have brung someone in
- 7:59and they said, hey, watch this guy, he's going to
- 8:01nine South. That's why the plus one is throwing me off.
- 8:05Question have you ever seen plus one and anything before? Answer? No,
- 8:09I heard people calling in with a plus one, But
- 8:11then again, I say that's like a ghost a ghost. Count.
- 8:16Question all right, does this but seeing especially looking at
- 8:20seventy two and does this at all tell you anything
- 8:24about any of those counts. Like we've had other people,
- 8:28you know, in higher position saying to me, it tells
- 8:31me that the counts weren't done. Does that tell you that? Answer? Yeah?
- 8:35But at ten I mean yeah, I don't know, man,
- 8:38I mean, I couldn't tell you. I couldn't tell you.
- 8:42I don't know. I don't understand that question. Okay, So
- 8:46it's just a baffling type of deal because it's baffling
- 8:49to us, and then we're just hoping that people can't
- 8:51help us, especially people that were there. Answer, I don't know. See,
- 8:56that's why I don't understand that. I don't see how
- 8:58they got seventy three at the time ten o'clock count
- 9:01and then they lose one after the ten o'clock count. Question,
- 9:05And that's the same thing we're trying to figure that out. Answer,
- 9:09unless it wasn't keyed in the system, question, at what
- 9:13point are you able to tell? At what point it
- 9:15should have been keyed in the system by that answer, Well,
- 9:18if a guy came into R and D and they
- 9:20keep him in shoe and they put him back in
- 9:22R and D. Question, So if like he went to
- 9:26shoe and then back answer, he never went to shoe.
- 9:29They keep him in the shoe, they put him on
- 9:31the count, but he didn't make it. So the medical
- 9:34and stuff taking the guy out, so they say, hey,
- 9:37leave him down there and count him an R and D.
- 9:40I could see that happening. Question. So if like he's
- 9:43in medical and they can't he gets cut off by
- 9:47the lieutenant. Well, so like medical comes down there and
- 9:49they check him out and he don't make it up
- 9:51to the shoe for the time. Seeing that, they could say, hey, well,
- 9:55I'm not putting him in our account, put him down there. Question.
- 9:59So that would be like the ghost count you're talking about. Answer, No,
- 10:03that's the real count. That's just saying someone put him
- 10:06in there and then took him out. Question. All right,
- 10:09but if he's not physically there, he's not actually allowed
- 10:12to be on the count, is he Answer exactly No,
- 10:15That's why this is I don't know. You see this
- 10:18says RA, that's R and D question, And does it
- 10:21say anybody in R and D on this answer? Well,
- 10:25there's not out count. And that's what I'm saying. There's
- 10:28no out count with that one question. So this RA
- 10:32is one answer. RA and R and D are separate.
- 10:36You need an out count for this. You don't need
- 10:38an outcount for that. This is a unit question. But
- 10:41as far as this goes, we're looking at the midnight
- 10:44and ten pm right answer. Yeah, question, So at midnight
- 10:48there is RA one and then midnight, but at ten pm,
- 10:52you know, two hours earlier the zero correct answer. So
- 10:56I'm thinking this dude went back to RA. Question. Okay,
- 11:00that's how they lost someone. But there is a count
- 11:02slip for R and R and D. That's what we're
- 11:05talking about. That's the thing. He gets cut off by
- 11:08the investigator. Isn't the count slip he gets cut off
- 11:12now by the lieutenant at the top question that's R
- 11:16and D answer, Well, they could have messed up. They
- 11:19could have had RA count slip for that one question.
- 11:23What's the difference between RNA and R and D. Answer.
- 11:26RNA is a real unit. So when the guys come
- 11:29back from court, they're in RA status. R and D
- 11:32is when they keyed out question to leave answer to
- 11:35go to court. But if they come back, they came
- 11:38back in their unit. If they don't come back, they
- 11:40release them from R and D. But RA is technically
- 11:43a unit question and it doesn't count as it doesn't
- 11:48show up in R and D answer. No question, where
- 11:51would that one slip that says R and D in there?
- 11:53Where would that show up? Answer? That would be right here.
- 11:57But they don't have nobody in R and D question
- 12:00so there, So is that even weirder the fact that
- 12:03the ten PM count there's a count slip for R
- 12:06and D and there's nobody for R and D on
- 12:08this answer. That's why I think they put them and
- 12:11keep them in the shoe. They keep them in the
- 12:13shoe the inmate and put him down an R and
- 12:16D and then change it after the count, or they
- 12:18could have changed it right after his count cleared and
- 12:21set it up for the next count. Say the inmate,
- 12:23the inmate is this is ten answer? Yeah, this one
- 12:27is ten pm question. Yeah, you have the midnight one
- 12:31question and that midnight one right there. Answer, that's the
- 12:35three question. This is midnight answer. Yeah, So that's what happened.
- 12:42Question Does R and D have like a dry cell
- 12:44or a dry room? Answer? No, they got sells. You see,
- 12:48they got RA right here. Yeah, that's what happened. I
- 12:51think the guy came from shoe and went to RA.
- 12:53That's why they lost one question and can you think
- 12:56of why a person would go from shoe to RA
- 12:59at that late at night? Answer? A body scan, probably
- 13:02pulled something and they kept them down there, put him
- 13:04through the X ray? Answer, And is there a way
- 13:07by looking at these you can see is there you said?
- 13:10Four pm? Answer? Yeah, that's four pm? Question is the
- 13:14person in R and D at four pm? Are you
- 13:16able to tell by this? Answer? Let me see you
- 13:19know the inmate that was down there? Or no? Question?
- 13:22I think redacted? Is that right? Answer? He was a
- 13:25whitsec dude. Question do you know anything about him? Answer? No,
- 13:29I don't, but yeah, that's what it looks like. It
- 13:32looks like they took a guy to shoe, put him
- 13:34in R and D, but instead of keeping in R
- 13:36and D, they keyed him in RA. Yeah, that's what
- 13:39it looks like. Question so at four pm? Was anything
- 13:43to do with redacted on that or anything to do
- 13:45with somebody in he gets cut off by the lieutenant?
- 13:48Well the four pm no, because no one is out
- 13:51from R and D. You've got one from eleven South,
- 13:54You've got no one from R and D. Question, but
- 13:57it also said that the ten pm right or I
- 14:00don't know which one I'm looking at right here. Answer, no,
- 14:03you have one out here. Yeah, but it looks like
- 14:05this inmate from ten o'clock they did the count at
- 14:08ten plus one, Yeah, plus one. It seemed like they
- 14:11got screwed up by something, either a moving this guy
- 14:14to R and D or whatever. I mean, the count
- 14:16slip shouldn't have accepted anyway. So in the nine south
- 14:19plus one, like, I don't know why that was written,
- 14:22that's what it looked like. The guy came from nine South,
- 14:25he went in the ra stayed there throughout the night.
- 14:27Whoever the inmate was question? And we have reason to
- 14:31believe that that is the case, that there's a guy
- 14:34that was in you know, he did stay there at
- 14:37the night and he had somebody on him. And that's
- 14:40one of the reasons why we want to talk to
- 14:42somebody that was in R and D to be able
- 14:44to verify, Hey, was that guy really there? And by
- 14:47looking at that, would you be able to tell us
- 14:50the individual we talked about? Answer redacted question who did
- 14:55the count slip? Answer it's based on the count slip.
- 14:58Question All right, does this tell you anything just before
- 15:01we move on? Answer, I mean, I don't know, Yeah,
- 15:05I don't know. I don't understand it. That's the only thing.
- 15:08I think they probably took him down there. Question is
- 15:11there a witch? From looking at these? What basic like
- 15:14count seem bad to you? Does this ten pm one
- 15:16seem like a bad count to you? The way what
- 15:19you just looked at when there's nothing on the EU
- 15:22one and on the count slip? Answer? If you were
- 15:25working that night and you got a count like that,
- 15:27is that good or a bad count? Answer? I would
- 15:31have said a bad count? Question? And who can you
- 15:33tell by looking at this who was the one who
- 15:36took the count? Answer? Uh? Redacted? Question? And was there
- 15:40any lieutenants involved with these? Answer? I mean there could
- 15:43have been, I'm not sure. Question, but by looking at this,
- 15:47I think probably the midnight one there was an actual obsolutenant.
- 15:50Are you able to tell that by looking I think
- 15:53the obsolutenant is the one who caught it at midnight?
- 15:56Are you able to tell that? Answer? Oh? This one here? Question? Yeah?
- 16:00Are you able to tell by looking at these? Are
- 16:02you able to tell me when the lieutenant actually took
- 16:05the count? Answer? It looks like she took the count redacted?
- 16:08Took the count at midnight? Question? All right? And it
- 16:11shows redacted on it. I'm looking at this upside down,
- 16:14so I can't even see it. Answer that's what it says. Question.
- 16:18And this one does it show any lieutenant was involved? Answer? No, question,
- 16:23so it would just have been redacted. Answer. Yeah. All right, folks,
- 16:28we're gonna wrap up right here, and in the next
- 16:30episode dealing with the topic, we're gonna pick up where
- 16:32we left off. All the information that goes with this
- 16:35episode can be found in the description box.
