Below is the definition of Psychological Observation provided by Dr. M, Chief Psychologist. He
will remain on Psychological Observation until tomorrow, where he will be reassessed.
DEFINITION: A Psychological Observation occurs when an inmate who suffers from a mental illness, a serious personality
disorder, a medical problem (impairing their mental status), or drug intoxication and/or withdrawal symptoms begins to
deteriorate. The inmate is no longer mentally stable and therefore, it is inappropriate for s/he to remain in general
population or the Special Housing Unit (SHU). Inmates placed on psychological observation differ from inmates placed
on suicide watch as they are not imminently suicidal (e.g., have not expressed self-harm or engaged in self-harming
behavior), but rather, due to his/her impairment in mental status or functioning (e.g., not eating, not sleeping,
disorganized/unusual thinking, poor self-care), his/her behavior can be unpredictable. Psychological Observation status
is intended as a temporary designation to be utilized until such time as the inmate becomes sufficiently stable (e.g., able
to function independently in general population) to be returned to his/her housing assignment or transferred to an
inpatient psychiatric facility such as a Federal Medical Center.
He has a pending incident report for Self-Mutilation and therefore he will return to the S ial
Housing Unit (SHU) and will be celled with inmate Inmate

including many prominent Democratic figures, among them former President Barack Obama, former
Vice President Joe Biden, formcr Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and Sens. Cory Booker (N.J.) and

Hello,
Inmate Epstein #76318-054 was removed from Suicide Watch and stepped down to Psychological Observation. He was just
escorted to Health Services for a follow-up assessment/evaluation. Once completed, he will be escorted to Attorney Conference
to meet with his Attorney. I will provide you with information concerning the medical assessment, once I receive it. Thanks.
