“#New warden at Epstein jail served as federal executioner<\/strong>”
\n<\/p>\n

\n

The interim warden at the troubled Manhattan lockup where Jeffrey Epstein killed himself served as the executioner at five executions carried out by the Bureau of Prisons in recent months, a report said Monday. <\/p>\n

Warden Eric Williams participated in the five executions when the federal agency resumed killing death row inmates in July during President Trump\u2019s final months in office, the Associated Press reported<\/a>. <\/p>\n

Williams detailed his experience during two of the executions in court filings included in court cases related to the agency\u2019s use of the death penalty. <\/p>\n

In one of the statements, Williams said he was the official to ask inmate Brandon Bernard if he had any statements to make before he was put to death. <\/p>\n

\u201cI witnessed the execution on December 10, 2020, from inside the execution room, several feet from Mr. Bernard,\u201d Williams stated. <\/p>\n

\u201cI asked Mr. Bernard if he would like to make a statement, which he did. When he was
finished, I read Mr. Bernard\u2019s sentencing information aloud, and asked the U.S. Marshals\u2019
representative to check whether there were any impediments to proceed with the execution,\u201d he added. <\/p>\n

\u201cThereafter, the administration of the lethal injection substances began. At the same time, Mr. Bernard spoke to his Minister of Record and stated, \u2018tell my family I love them\u2019,\u201d Williams added. <\/p>\n

The Associated Press, which witnessed all of the 13 executions carried out by BOP, reported that Williams stood next the inmates as they were strapp<\/a>ed to a gurney while wearing black gloves and showing no emotion. <\/p>\n

He then stared at each of the five inmates as they were put to death, according to the report. <\/p>\n

Williams took the reins at the Metropolitan Correctional Center after warden Marti Licon-Vitale stepped down in late January after a year in the top spot. <\/p>\n

The facility has been plagued with issues since Epstein\u2019s death, including a coronavirus outbreak, a smuggled handgun and lawsuits regarding sexual abuse by guards.\n <\/p><\/div>\n
