SUBJECT: Possible Suicide Attempt
On July 23, 2019 at approx. 1:27 a.m., a call for assistance on the Special Housing Unit
was announced by the Control Center. Upon my arrival I was informed that an inmate
had attempted suicide and proceeded to cell, Z05-124LAD. I observed inmate
Epstein, Jeffrey #76318-054 lying in the fetal position on the floor of his cell wearing a
t-shirt and boxers. He was breathing heavily and was snoring. I called out to inmate
Epstein and observed him flicker his eyes and continue snoring. His neck was red
with no abrasions. I observed no further injuries to his person. An attempt was made
to get the inmate to stand on his own with negative results. The inmate was placed in
hand restraints and staff was directed to retrieve the stretcher. As inmate Epstein was
being placed on the stretcher by responding staff, he would open his eyes and observe
staff. When staff made eye contact with him, he would hurriedly shut his eyes. The
inmate was taken to HA-Unit, dressed in the suicide smock and placed on suicide
watch. While awaiting the arrival of an inmate companion. inmate Epstein sat on the
edge of the bed and began moving forward as if he was attempting to fall over head
first. When I looked away, he straightened up. As I turned to look at him again, he
attempted the same act. I laid him down on the bed and directed him to cease his
action or he would be placed in restraints for his safety. At that moment, he stated,
"Okay, I won't do it again," and gave the thumbs up. Because of his unpredictable
behavior, the decision was made to have a staff member observe inmate Epstein. I
left HA-Unit in order to make staff notifications. Moments later, I spoke with Officer
Clarke who stated that inmate Epstein was alert and had indicated that his cellmate,
Tartaglione, Nicholas #78514-054 had attempted to kill him and had been harassing
him. He stated that the inmate had indicated that he'd informed his attorney of this
matter.
I photographed and spoke with inmate Tartaglione, Nicholas IMIIIINho stated
that he was asleep with his headphones on when he felt something hit his legs and
said, "Jeff, what you're doing?" He didn't answer, so he got up, turned on the light and
saw him with a string around his neck. He stated that he then called the guards and

they ran down. Upon La-ler questioning, inmate Tartaglione _dated that he sleeps on
the bottom bunk, but gave it to inmate Epstein because he's old. He stated that he
sleeps on the floor on a mattress. He stated that when he got up, he couldn't
remember if he sat up or stood up to check on Epstein. He stated that Epstein was
sifting on the floor leaning to the side with his eyes opened, but wasn't responding. He
stated that the last time he saw him he was snoring really loud.
Inmate Epstein stated that he came in from a legal visit at approx. 8:00PM and staff
handed him a copy of the Daily News. "Nick" was on the floor reading the Daily News.
He stated that he had given it to him. He stated that Tartaglione mentioned that he'd
been in court all day in Westchester and was carrying on. At that point, inmate
Tartaglione paused as if he was making the story up as he went along, and stated that
Tartaglione stated, "These fucking niggers. This place is inhumane, I wish I could
report it. II"Officer), that nigger hobbit mother fucker." He then turned to a page in
the Daily News that had his picture on it and stated that Epstein was worth seventy
seven million dollars. Epstein stated that he took his picture, balled it up and threw it in
the garbage. I asked inmate Epstein what happened prior to staffs arrival. He stated
that at approx. 1:00 AM, he'd gotten up to get a drink of water, as he gets up every
thirty minutes. He remember walking back to his bunk and waking up with staff there
in his cell. I asked if he'd waken up and seen staff, why didn't he respond when we
were calling out to him? He stated that he only remembered hearing himself making a
noise like snoring. When asked about the allegations against his cellmate, he stated
that he was told, if he hurt him, staff wouldn't care.
Duty medical, Dr. was notified and briefed. It was determined no further
medical attention was needed. A medical assessment was not conducted at the time
of this incident, due to the fact, there was no medical staff available after 10:00 PM.
Arlie arrival of medical staff, inmate Epstein was examined and treated by, MLP
for a circular line of erythema at the base of the neck, one section on the front
with marks of friction and a small erythema on his left knee.

tried to kill him. Inmate Epstein also stated that his Bunkie also tried to extort
money from him and stated that if he didn't pay him that he would beat him up. He stated that
this has been going on for a week. I asked inmate Epstein if he told staff about this and he told
me no, that he'd only told his lawyer. He went on to say that his Bunkie told him that if he beat
him up, because of his charges, the officers would not report it and because of this he was not
comfortable telling the officers about the prolong threats and alleged attempts to extort him. I
immediately reported this to the lieutenant.
