The U.S. Public Health Service appears in the Epstein files through email signatures of medical and psychology staff at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) New York who were involved in Epstein's custody, particularly forensic psychologists monitoring his suicide watch status and pharmacists managing his medications.
All 23 mentions are from email signatures of MCC staff members who hold commissions in the U.S. Public Health Service Commissioned Corps—primarily forensic psychologists (with the rank of Lieutenant) providing daily suicide watch/psychological observation updates, and pharmacists (with the rank of Captain) managing prescriptions. These are operational Bureau of Prisons documents from July-August 2019 during Epstein's incarceration at MCC New York, documenting routine custody and medical care activities. The mentions reflect the institutional structure where approximately 550 Public Health Service officers are detailed to the Bureau of Prisons under interagency agreement to provide healthcare services.
Key Highlights
- •U.S. Public Health Service officers staffed MCC New York's medical and psychology departments under interagency agreement with the Bureau of Prisons
- •A forensic psychologist with the rank of Lieutenant (USPHS) authored multiple daily updates on Epstein's suicide watch and psychological observation status from July-August 2019
- •A Chief Pharmacist with the rank of Captain (USPHS) managed Epstein's medication requests including docusate sodium (Colace), Vascepa, and other prescriptions
- •The mentions are entirely from staff email signatures indicating their organizational affiliation, not evidence of any connection between Epstein and the U.S. Public Health Service as an institution
