Note that Medical Observation, is where there are four single rooms with a common area that has a phone and television. She is not being allowed to send or receive mail. (Yes, even privileged mail.) Statement from Chelsea: 1n the days up to Monday It] October 2.016, several inmates in the special housing area where I was at, in Alpha Tier, as it?s called, were moved out of Alpha Tier to somewhere else. No explanation was provided. After dinner, but before sunset, taro tier guards (and I have their speci?c names on paper) discussed: a cyber attack on the east coast, affecting phone lines and killing dozens of people. Twitter mentioning me being "blown up." Congress entering an emergency session to pass new anti-terrorism measures a proposed amendment to the constitution, the 23th Amendment, that would bar convicted felons from holding of?ce. emergency orders ??om the "fucking president" affecting USDB and its operations. At shift change on the evening of 10 October 2016 there was a commotion throughout SHU East: a. There was woman yelling b. The guards on the tier were activating their PALS alarm system, which is a panic button system that alerts the whole facility to an emergency. However, it was authenticated without the Watch Commander and the all PAL alarms that went off were deactivated rapidly. c. I also heard the booth and tier guards asking "who are you?" and a male voice explaining "Oh. I'm new here." d. Then there was physical ?ghting. c. There were also several reports of suppressed or silenced shots from a pistol that was either silenced or suppressed by some means. Then, the female voice began directing the other two males to ?bind and gag" the guards bodies and throw Them into the showers. Eipeeilicaliy. they bound them Mill cord wrapped four times and were "zrp tied." usually wrtnessed one person bemg tied up by the female.

There was also still die occasional report of more suppressed g'unl'ut- The attackers {that were poslng at tier guards} than began to rnop up what sounded it could have been water or what could have been pools ofblood.
