Footage from camera outside Epstein's cell deemed unusable
SF Gate ^ | 26 August 2019 | Carol D. Leonnig and Matt Zapotosky

At least one camera in the hallway outside the cell where authorities say registered sex offender Jeffrey Epstein hanged himself earlier this month had footage that is unusable, although other, clearer footage was captured in the area, according to three people briefed on the evidence gathered earlier this month.

It was not immediately clear why some video footage outside Epstein's cell is too flawed for investigators to use or what is visible in the other, usable footage. The incident is being investigated by the FBI and the Justice Department's inspector general's office, which are attempting to determine what happened and how to assess whether any policies were violated or crimes committed.

The footage is considered critical to those inquiries, and the revelation of an unusable recording is yet another of the apparent failures inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center, the short-staffed Bureau of Prisons facility in downtown Manhattan that held Epstein.

It's unclear whether the flaw in the taping affected a limited duration of the footage or whether it was a chronic problem in the beleaguered facility.

A Bureau of Prisons spokesman declined to comment, as did spokespeople for the FBI, the Justice Department and the U.S. attorney's office in Manhattan.

Of course the FBI wouldn’t comment...

They’re in the middle of an active coverup ... er ... investigation.

Not immediately clear, 🤡😂🙄🤔

Oh,the FBI is on the case ? Whew, the criminals can rest easy. 🤡☠️💩

And what are the odds that 18.5 minutes of the “unusable” film contains the image of the spooks who murdered pedo Epstein?

I’d say 100%

What a complete CF! Unacceptable!!!!!

People! People!

Don’t be so cynical.

Our Attorney General’s on the case. I mean, look at all he’s done with uncovering the attempted coup against our President. We’ve seen dozens of corrupt FBI and Obama administration officials indicted, and, since they’re talking, it seems pretty clear the trail will lead right up the line. Nor can the enemy news portray this as some kind of “revenge” or “witch hunt” since Barr released all of the declassified documents a couple of months ago.

Oh, wait? You mean NONE of that has happened? Sorry. I woke up in an alternate universe this morning where there was still such a thing as justice and integrity in our country.

Piece if cake. Kill him, then let your 10 year old daughter write up what happened. Doesn’t matter what she writes, people will believe it. This whole thing is TOTALLY laughable that they think we would actually believe ANY of this? This is exactly the kind of crap Obama pulled and got away with it ...and instead of a jail cell, he lives in a $15,000,000 home.

If you haven’t figured out that we have a 2 tiered INJUSTICE SYSTEM based on your bank account and political connections than you probably think we still have a Constitution too...
