All, 
After much engagement with HQ over the past 48 hours, and our efforts to both consolidate and limit the 
reporting requirements, HQ is now requesting updates in a conference call to be held daily at 1530. You 
should all receive the bridge line information tomorrow. Trust me, nothing you're thinking right now hasn't 
already been communicated to the highest levels. IMO, this is largely driven by DOI. Is it inconvenient? Yes. 
Regardless, we'll need to support the calls because those you all deal with in CID are in the exact same

the team is currently focused on charges for a different co-conspirator. However, we're engaged with Counsel 
for all co-conspirators. Kill the rumor before it gets legs in the minds of senior leadership. 
With regard to interviews or other investigative techniques, stay general unless we have significant 
information. You could say, "we conducted interviews of 14 MCC Corrections Officers and continued with the 
financial analysis but don't have anything signficant to report." Only give names of an interviewee if there 
was something significant. 
If we don't have significant results to report, it's ok to say so. Be mindful that most, if not all, of what you say 
will be pushed to the seventh floor.
