Mystery orange shape spotted near Jeffrey Epstein’s jail cell the night before his death: report
NYP ^ | 07 30 2025 | Anna Young

An orange shape was spotted on surveillance footage near Jeffrey Epstein’s prison cell on the final night of his life — and forensic experts are questioning the federal government’s explanation of the mysterious object.

The shadowy object, seen in video obtained and reviewed by CBS News, moves up the stairs to Epstein’s cell block at the Metropolitan Correctional Center around 10:40 p.m. the night before the 66-year-old convicted sex trafficker was found hanged.

Federal investigators previously concluded the pixelated blob was a corrections officer “carrying linen or inmate clothing,” but forensic experts who spoke to the network as part of an investigation into the jail video now suspect it may have actually been a jumpsuit-clad inmate.

“Based on the limited video, it’s more likely a person in an [orange] uniform,” Conor McCourt, a retired NYPD sergeant and forensic video expert, told CBS.

Epstein was found dead in his cell on August 10, 2019, and an official autopsy, as well as a joint DOJ-FBI probe, found that the disgraced financier killed himself by hanging.

Cool how inmates can wander around the jail like that.

1) We have no video at all
2) We have the complete video
3) We have the video but we’re missing 1 minute
4) We have the video but we’re missing 3 minutes
5) We have the complete video
6) We can explain that orange thing

For the umpteenth time, he was “allowed” to kill himself. It’s the logical answer.

and the BOP’s failure to provide and maintain quality camera coverage within its facilities

Meanwhile, for about $500, anyone can have full 2K HD camera coverage of their entire house/property, inside and out.

The trick with video is to set everything up well *before* the incident. Then just have a ‘missing minute’ while somebody exits the scene.

Forensic pathologist Dr. Michael Baden doesn’t see that as a logical answer.

Seriously, their excuses and their video are bullshiite. The camera is focused on a set of doors that have nothing to do with JE’s cell and no authorities have ever bothered to mention that fact. And at no point when they were escorting “Epstein” to his cell from across the main room, could you actually see his face. You see somebody in an orange prison jumpsuit but from the chest up is blocked by a railing at the forefront of the camera view.

This ONE surveillance camera that was working does not cover the path one would take walking from the entrance to the cell block, across the open floor and up the stairs to Epstein’s cell. It only covers the stair rail and maybe a couple of inches of the stairs. Even Hillary could have walked in the door, up the stairs and slip into JE’s cell and that camera would not have seen it.

And the “missing” minute or three is a bunch of carp as well because in that switch-over, the camera makes a little jump like it was touched slightly. Pretty sure any reset process would not jerk the camera around.

PTZ cameras can do that during a reset.

Every jail in the country performs 10 minute room/cell checks physically by jail staff. Any video of Epstein’s cell or hallway for 1 or 2 hours would be full of those roving checks. If Epstein was considered a suicide risk, he would be in full view of the supervisor in a cell naked. There would also, most likely be video of him.
