o As a general practice, prior to the shift, the officers are briefed. The people in the SHU were supposed to
be briefed down that Epstein was supposed to have a cellmate at all time. Officers have the authority to
move cellmates. Captain was supposed to brief the Lt. who is supposed to brief down to the officers.
Don't yet know whether the captain briefed the officers.
