FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino promised the release of new video from the cell bay housing sexual predator and human trafficker Jeffrey Epstein around the time of his suicide to prove “no one was there but him.”
Epstein’s 2019 death at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City was ruled a suicide, but has been the subject of prevailing conspiracy theories suggesting that he was murdered because of his networking with high-profile celebrities and business people.
Bongino’s comments come after he and FBI Director Kash Patel came under fire from the MAGA crowd for having dismissed conspiracy theories about Epstein during a joint interview earlier this month on Fox News.
peaking to Fox & Friends hosts on Thursday, Bongino was asked about the Epstein case. What began as a guarded response arguing that the case is never truly “closed” and that he was open to tips, he teased the release of footage that offer a “clear as day” conclusion on the matter.
He began: “I’m just telling you what we see in the file. I want to be crystal clear on this. I am not asking anyone to believe me, I’m telling you what is there and what isn’t. There is nothing in the file at this point on the Epstein case – and there will be a disclosure on this coming shortly. There is video that is something the public –”
“Video of him killing himself?” co-host Lawrence Jones pressed.
Bongino replied: “Not the actual act, but the entire MCC bay, there was only one camera, there were other – there is video and when you look at the video, and we will release it, we’re working on cleaning it up to make sure you have an enhanced – and we will give the original so you don’t think there are any shenanigans – you will see no one in there but him. There’s just nobody there.”
He continued: “I say to people of the time — if you have a tip, let us know — but there is no DNA, there’s no audio, there’s no fingerprints, there’s no suspects, there’s no accomplices, there’s no tips. There is nothing. If you have it, I’m happy to see it. There’s video clear as day, he’s the only person in there and only person coming out. You can see it.”
Is that not correct?
We have been told that there is no video. The cameras were down. Now this. My take: It takes time to make an AI video and make sure that it looks legit.
More likely, people don't trust the Biden FBI, the lack of purges in the current FBI, and the video itself.
I can't blame them nor would I definitely judge their motives.
Does your judgement of these people make you feel vindicated?
From Google AI:
This repeats what we were originally told about the available video from Epstein’s jail—there wasn’t any.

Yes, it’s true that the surveillance cameras in the Special Housing Unit (SHU) where Jeffrey Epstein was housed at the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) in Manhattan were largely not recording on the night he died.
Here’s a breakdown of the situation:
Camera Malfunction:
A malfunction of the MCC’s Digital Video Recorder system occurred on July 29, 2019, impacting the recording capabilities of the surveillance cameras.
While the cameras continued to provide live feeds, only about half of them were actually recording.
This malfunction was discovered on August 8, 2019, but wasn’t fixed until after Epstein’s death on August 10.
Limited Recorded Video Evidence:
Because of the malfunction, only one security camera in the SHU area provided recorded video evidence for the night of August 9th and morning of August 10th.
This camera recorded a large part of the SHU’s common area and portions of the stairways leading to different cell tiers. However, this camera did not capture Epstein’s cell door.
No Evidence of Unauthorized Entry:
The Department of Justice Office of the Inspector General (OIG) reviewed the available footage and concluded that between approximately 10:40 pm on August 9th and 6:30 am on August 10th, no one was seen entering Epstein’s cell tier from the SHU common area.
Conclusion: The failure of most cameras to record and the limited view of the one functioning camera resulted in a lack of complete video evidence regarding the events leading up to Epstein’s death. This gap in the record contributed to the controversy and speculation surrounding his death.”
AI responses may include mistakes.
Yup. The Biden FBI had four years. That's a long time to potentially cover things up.
The you are truly gone. If literally nothing can convince you of something, then why should anyone try? You will continue to live in your world of conspiracy theories and rail against “them” even if it means no longer trusting people you used to trust. It must be hard to live that way.
Oops. Uppity Hal needs to be unplugged.
That was the camera in the cell. This is video from cameras in the area outside the cell which supposedly shows that nobody entered or left the cell.
I am not asking you to believe me. Just believe the footage I give you.
Hey Dan, what happened to everyone present on shift that night in the facility where Jeff was detained?
What about the footage where two guys came into the facility?
The tasted of power and fear of death is a potent toxic mix. You have tasted and experienced the fruits of the deep state.
Give your life for your country, Dan. By your sacrific you can bring down parts of the deep state necessary to destroy the virus called Elites. Otherwise, you have been absorbed by the borg.
Israeli AI has gotten to the point where they can now fake videos, apparently.
Next will be Trump saying "dUh Ay-nnnn wUrrrrD"on the set of Celebrity Apprentice during the height of the summer riots. If we can't make that happen., China will do it for the democrats.
DITTO!
I say this (without reading all of the comments): The issue is not whether Epstein was actively “murdered,” but why someone *who should have been expected to be suicidal* was left unwatched with the tools (bedsheets) and the time to enable him to commit suicide?
Additionally, this is one of the most important prisoners in the federal system. Wouldn’t he get the A team of jailers in the A prison? Unless Barr et al wanted Epstein gone.
