METROPOLITAN CORRECTIONAL CENTER NEW YORK, NEW YORK GENERAL POST ORDERS SPECIAL HOUSING UNIT THIS IS NOT AN ARMED POST inmates escorted through the connecting link is directly related to the number of staff available to conduct the escort. Anytime In-Custody inmates are escorted through the connecting link, two staff members must be present for the escort. One staff member positioned at the front of the escort, and the second staff member positioned to the rear of the escort. When an inmate is being escorted to or from the Special Housing Unit, two staff members must be present for the escort. A ratio of 2:1 will always be maintained when escorting inmates to or from the Special Housing Unit. ENTRANCE PROCEDURES: COVERAGE AND METHODS: Entrance procedures include the control of inmates, employees, visitors or commercial traffic entering the institution. Because of the need for a broad knowledge of the institution and its function, along with a thorough understanding of security requirements, only those officers with such knowledge will normally be staffing these posts. Constant contact with the public requires that these officers display a neatness of appearance, ability to handle people, tactfulness in enforcing regulations and alertness in recognizing security hazards. OUTSIDE INMATE DETAILS: During normal duty hours, all outside inmate details, (Warehouse, Building 4, Admin Orderlies, etc.,), will depart from the institution through the Rear Gate. The inmates must be escorted from the unit by the detail supervisor, using the inmate elevator. The inmates must be properly identified, one detail at a time, by the Internal Officer, in the elevator sally port, utilizing the approved gate passes. Once the inmates have been positively identified, the Rear Gate Officer will request for the door leading through the 1st floor sally port to the rear dock. The detail will be further processed by the Rear Gate Officer. All required information will be recorded in the TRUSCOPE program. Any work performed in the Rear Gate is considered outside of the secured perimeter. This means any area on the rear dock to include, Warehouse, and Trash Compactor. The Rear Gate Officer will positively identify and properly process the inmate detail into Rear Sally Port to perform their assigned work. If needed after normal duty hours, weekends and federal holidays, the inmate details will be processed through the Control Center the Operations Lieutenant will designate a staff member to positively identify the detail, in the elevator sally port, utilizing the approved gate passes.

METROPOLITAN CORRECTIONAL CENTER NEW YORK, NEW YORK GENERAL POST ORDERS SPECIAL HOUSING UNIT THIS IS NOT AN ARMED POST VISITING It is the policy of MCC New York to maintain visiting facilities for the purpose of maintaining family ties. Because of the nature of this facility, visits must be conducted under appropriate supervision so that security is maintained and the visiting privileges extended to inmates and their families are clearly communicated. For the purpose of this policy, the term pre-trial inmate refers to any inmate who is non-cadre, including holdovers, treaty transfers, BICE detainees, state inmates, and any designated inmate other than those assigned to the MCC New York Work Cadre Unit. Staff must be able to verify the identity of visitors before their admission into the institution. Acceptable means of identification are, government-issued identification, passport, state-issued photo identification (with a date of issue and expiration) and valid drivers' license. In cases where visitors do not have photo identification, they will be required to have three types of identification with signatures. These need not be the sole means of identification. However, identification cards from quick photo places, and check cashing establishments are not acceptable forms of identification. Tactful questioning may clear up doubtful cases. Visitors sixteen (16) and under do not have to show identification unless of course they appear to be older. In such cases, if a visitor under the age of sixteen cannot provide documentation, i.e., a birth certificate (when requested) to prove relationship and age, the visitor will not be allowed into the institution. The following procedures will be in effect regarding authorized visiting lists. Each inmate will complete a visiting list. The visiting list will not exceed ten (10) approved visitors for pre- trial inmates and (12) for cadre inmates. Immediate family members and two (2) person of "meaning" will be placed on the visiting list absent strong circumstances that preclude visiting. Immediate family is defined as mother, father, step-parents, step-children, foster parents, grand-children, brothers, sisters, spouse and children. As the situation presents itself, other non-immediate family members will be allowed to visit at the approval of the Associate Warden of Programs (AWP).

If efforts to locate the inmate fail, the inmate shall be immediately reported to the shift lieutenant as missing and appropriate action initiated to locate the inmate. CELL ASSIGNMENT - SEXUAL OFFENDER/PROTECTIVE CUSTODY Cell assignments will be determined in an methodical manner. This involves the SHU Lieutenant and OIC, Psychology staff, Unit Team as well as Investigative staff, in determining suitability of cellmates for inmates in protective custody and/or sexual offenders. Most inmates do not like to be housed with sexual offenders or protective custody inmates. Housing the wrong inmates with sexual offenders or protective custody inmates, can lead to serious assaults and/or homicide. Inmates cannot be allowed to choose their roommates, but it is understood that some inmates may be better housed with inmates of like backgrounds/affiliations, than arbitrarily housing the inmates without considering all variables. As noted earlier, protective custody and sexual offenders will be screened thoroughly. If there are no single cells available, this review will be crucial in minimizing the potential for assault. HIGH RISK LIST During the weekly SHU meeting, the Warden will be provided a list of those inmates who are considered high risk from a psychological and management stand point. The Captain and Chief Psychologist should be responsible for generating this list. This list will be provided to the Lieutenants' office and the Duty Officers so they are informed should a high risk inmate act out and be in need of medical or psychological attention.

Inoperable security equipment, during serious incidents, prevents staff from being able to record and or/view the incident for possible prosecution or administrative action. SUICIDE PREVENTION INFORMATION BOP HIGH RISK GROUPS • New Inmates - The first few hours and days after admission can be critical. Newly incarcerated inmates may experience feelings such as shame, guilt, fear, sadness, anger, agitation, depression, relationship problems, legal concerns, hopelessness, and helplessness, which can contribute to increased suicide risk. • Protective Custody - Inmates who volunteer to enter protective custody are at high risk for suicide, especially during the first 72 hours in SHU. These inmates should be referred to psychology services immediately. • Long-term Protective Custody Inmates - These inmates are particularly vulnerable to depression that can lead to a suicide attempt, and should be monitored closely while they are in SHU. • Inmates Taking Medication for Mental Health Reasons - These inmates are vulnerable to developing suicidal thoughts and attempting suicide by overdosing on their medication. Inmates on medication should be monitored to make sure they are not hoarding medication. Any signs of distress, deterioration in hygiene, or sudden changes in behavior should be reported to psychology. FACTORS THAT CAN INCREASE THE PROBABILITY THAT AN INMATE MAY BECOME SUICIDAL: Mental Health Factors History of mental illness 1. Is the inmate depressed, actively psychotic? 2. Has the inmate been compliant with psychotropic medication? 3. Have there been changes in eating, sleeping, hygiene, weight, recreation, activity level? Prior suicide attempt 1. How lethal was the attempt? 2. How many attempts have been made? December 7, 2018 Sensitive But Unclassified Page 22 of 29 EFTA00108389

Is the inmate depressed, has there been a recent loss? 4. Has hopelessness persisted even after the depression has lifted? 5. Has the inmate given away property, revised a will, or requested a phone call to say his goodbyes? Medical Condition(s)/Chronic Pain 1. Does the inmate have a chronic life threatening medical illness? 2. Has the inmate's overall health diminished recently? 3. Is the inmate experiencing pain or other negative symptoms? Relationship Difficulties 1. Has the inmate received a Dear John letter? 2. Have communications and or visits decreased? 3. Has there been a change in the relationship? Situational Factors 1. Legal issues - pending indictment; loss of appeal to reduce sentence. 2. Difficulties with staff or other inmates. 3. Gambling debts, drugs. 4. Ending of a close relationship with another inmate. 5. Possible victim of a sexual assault. REPORTING AND DOCUMENTING INMATE BEHAVIOR Report Your Concerns: Any inmate behavior(s) that is questionable and may reflect a change in mental health status should be reported to the Shift Lieutenant immediately. During non-working hours: Inform the Shift Lieutenant of any questionable inmate behavior. He/she will determine if the on-call psychologist needs to be contacted. Segregation Log Book: Any changes in inmate behaviors should be noted in the TRUSCOPE program. A detailed note regarding the observed behavior is advisable. Documenting in the TRUSCOPE program serves two purposes. First, the entry serves as a means of communication for other staff members. Second, it provides an accurate account of activity during your shift. Documentation should be neat, legible, and professional. December 7, 2018 Sensitive But Unclassified Page 23 of 29 EFTA00108390

The officer will notify the Control Center and the Lieutenant's Office by radio of the situation and request immediate back-up. BACK-UP MUST BE PRESENT IN ORDER TO ENTER A CELL. The "cut- down" tool is located in the storage closet on a shadow board. It is the #1 officer's responsibility to locate this item at the start of the shift. This tool is only authorized to be used in emergency situations. Miscellaneous use of this tool is not permitted and will result in dulling the blade of the tool. In the event an inmate commits suicide, the scene of the suicide will be treated in a manner consistent with the investigation of an inmate death. All measures necessary to preserve and document the evidence needed to support subsequent investigations will be maintained or otherwise adequately recorded. SEXUAL ASSAULT PROTOCOL Reporting In all cases of reported sexually abusive behaviors (e.g., from alleged victim, staff, and/or "third party") the following will occur: The Operations Lieutenant will be notified immediately and he/she will: • Immediately safeguard the inmate (which will vary depending on the severity of the alleged sexually abusive behavior and could range from monitoring the situation, changing housing assignments, changing work assignment, placing alleged victim and perpetrator in Special Housing, etc.); • Promptly refer all inmates reported or suspected of being the victim of sexually abusive behavior to Psychology Services for assessment of vulnerability and treatment needs; • During business hours, ensure that the SIS, Chief of Correctional Services, Program Coordinator, and Warden are notified; and During non-business hours, ensure that the SIS, Chief of Correctional Services, Program Coordinator, Duty Officer, and the on-call Psychologist are notified. • The Program Coordinator will review the psychological assessment and other relevant factors and make a determination as to whether or not to proceed with the full activation of the Response Protocol.

METROPOLITAN CORRECTIONAL CENTER NEW YORK, NEW YORK GENERAL POST ORDERS SPECIAL HOUSING UNIT THIS IS NOT AN ARMED POST Responding Not all allegations of sexually abusive behavior will require full activation of the Response Protocol. In some cases, the Program Coordinator will determine that there is not sufficient reason to proceed (e.g., the alleged victim credibly recanted; the alleged perpetrator was not in the institution on the date of the allegation, the inmates involved independently report a non-coercive sexual encounter, etc.) and the Response Protocol may be terminated. In cases where more information is needed, or in cases where there is a credible and serious allegation or instance of sexually abusive behavior, the full Response Protocol will be implemented. Once the Program Coordinator determines that the intervention should continue, a sensitive and coordinated response is necessary. Services will be provided in an environment that meets both security and therapeutic needs. The full Response Protocol, monitored by the Program Coordinator, involves the following components: Protection All appropriate staff will consult and determine the actions to be taken to prevent further sexually abusive behavior both to the alleged victim (e.g. change in work assignments, change in housing assignment, closer supervision, protective custody, transfer, etc.) and/or by the alleged perpetrator (e.g., remove from compound, change housing assignment, etc.). The Captain will ensure that a STG category of "V SA UNV" is entered into SENTRY, and in instances where an inmate perpetrator is alleged, will enter the STG category of "P Rh UNV" for that inmate (See Section 13.b. for further details). PSYCHOLOGICAL: Psychology staff are responsible for crisis intervention, assessment of treatment needs, documentation of the evaluation results, treatment, psychiatric referral, and/or other treatment options related to the alleged victim. In addition, Psychology staff provide guidance to Unit Management and Community Corrections staff regarding an inmate's post-release mental health needs. Inmate perpetrators (or alleged perpetrators) of sexually abusive behaviors will be referred by the Operations Lieutenant to Psychology Services. Inmates considered high-risk for sexual re-offending may be referred to specialty treatment and/or management programs, individual or group counseling, or may be managed through standard correctional techniques.

METROPOLITAN CORRECTIONAL CENTER NEW YORK, NEW YORK GENERAL POST ORDERS SPECIAL HOUSING UNIT THIS IS NOT AN ARMED POST If an inmate perpetrator is determined in need of treatment services and refuses treatment, Psychology Services staff will document the refusal and place it in the medical section of the Inmate Central File and notify the referring staff of the refusal. Documentation of treatment compliance or refusal ensures continuity of care within, between, and outside the Bureau. Examination Medical staff are responsible for examination, documentation, and treatment of inmate injuries arising from sexually abusive behaviors, including testing when appropriate for pregnancy, HIV and other sexually transmitted diseases (STDs). Where indicated, medical staff, trained in the collection of sexual assault evidence (i.e., "rape kit") should conduct an examination for physical evidence which may be used later in formal investigations. At institutions where Health Services staff are neither trained nor certified in sexual assault evidence gathering, the inmate will be examined at the institution by trained health care professionals from the local community or at the local community facility equipped (in accordance with local laws) to evaluate and treat sexual assault victims. Prophylactic treatment and follow-up for sexually transmitted diseases will be offered to all inmate victims, as appropriate. Whenever an inmate is referred to Health Services for examination and treatment of injuries related to sexually abusive behavior, staff will encourage the inmate victim to complete an Inmate Injury Assessment and Follow-up form (BP-S362) as required by the Program Statement on Patient Care. Investigation In cases where the full Response Protocol is activated, staff are trained to investigate allegations of sexually abusive behavior thoroughly. The information concerning the identity of the alleged inmate victim and the specific facts of the case are limited to those staff who need-to-know because of their involvement with the victim's welfare and the investigation of the incident. This is important not only to preserve the victim's privacy but also to preserve maximum flexibility to investigate the allegations. Initial Notifications: Upon activating the full Response Protocol, the investigation phase is initiated and the following notification(s) will be made: Inmate Perpetrator on Inmate Victim: In the event that an inmate is alleged to have perpetrated sexually abusive behavior against another inmate, the Special Investigative Agent (or SIS) will be notified immediately.
