For info - SDNY advised that Epstein was found unconscious in his cell with red marks on his neck. When staff
was able to revive Epstein, he couldn't recall what happened. His cellmate denied knowing anything and said he
was just sitting on his bunk with his earphones on. Epstein was removed from the cell and has been medically
evaluated. MCC has initiated an investigation per their SOPs. Cellmate is Nick Tartaglione. He is a former
police officer and subject of a quadruple homicide in HVRA. We arrested him last year. Washington Post has
already made inquiry to SDNY. The cellmate ident is not public knowledge.
