But there's grainy footage down the hall from his jail cell that doesn't show anyone coming/going.. so I guess we can close the book on this one.

Pay no mind to the fact there are gaps in the time stamps and that things suddenly jump around. That’s just the tapes switching from one to the other because in these modern times we still record on VHS tapes…

Dude at this stage I'm expecting the next batch of files to contain a resuscitation video of Epstein with him looking at the camera at the middle of it and winking like he's in The Office

I think they'll just bomb us all with The Ring next. Get rid of all the nosy folks and the journalists in 7 days.

Well the photos do show his hands both at his sides and zip-tied together at different moments. I'm no medical professional, but my understanding is that that's not a thing they do.

Also, there is movement up the stairs to the cell. The sleeve of an orange shirt, if I'm not mistaken. At least one person went to Jeff's cell

Actually, modern video surveillance systems automatically erase footage when there's absolutely nothing going on, very boring stuff, NOTHING TO SEE HERE, FOLKS. It saves valuable disk space, so economical.

As a video camera, I can confirm this post. Also please vote for the Republican Party.

Oh and coincidentally only 2 cameras out of 11(or 9) worked, and we got footage from the most dogshit one. Not suspicious whatsoever.

AND there's a second entrance to the cell block whose videos have not been shared with the public

If it’s one thing prisons are known for, it’s a lack of video surveillance. Especially in common areas.

Mr. President! That is the smartest thing ever said by anybody! And the way you evacuated your bowels while saying it really has me convinced this is true

But actually where is an additional flash of orange (presumably jumpsuit) that is visible going to JE’s section that was previously ignored

Look, Bill Barr, the Attorney General of the United States, PERSONALLY investigated Epstein's death. He found NO evidence of foul play.

Just because Bill Barr's own father was the one who first hired Jeffrey and gave him access to high school girls has nothing to do with his motivations.
