CCTV footage of the moment prison guards discovered Jeffrey Epstein’s body in his cell has been unearthed by The Telegraph.
Epstein was being held in the Metropolitan Correctional Centre in New York on sex trafficking charges when he was found unresponsive on Aug 10, 2019.
The circumstances of the financier’s suicide and his ties to high-profile public figures, including presidents, media tycoons and the Royal family, have fuelled conspiracy theories that his death may have involved foul play.
Until now, no footage of that moment has been published.
The FBI says Epstein took his own life and this was corroborated by supporting evidence from an autopsy conducted nine days after his death.
Investigators also said that from the time Epstein was locked in his cell at 10.40pm on Aug 9, up until around 6.30am the next morning, “nobody entered any of the tiers of the SHU [the special housing unit where he was held]”.
However, this suggestion was thrown into doubt after newly-released surveillance footage from the Epstein files show an orange-coloured shape moving up the staircases towards Epstein’s cell at 10.39pm.
The DoJ’s office of inspector general and the FBI have drawn different conclusions from the footage.
The FBI log describes the fuzzy image as “possibly an inmate”.
However, the inspector general has logged it as an officer carrying orange “linen or bedding”, noting it in their final report as “an unidentified [corrections officer]”.

Epstein didn’t kill himself.
It was Hillary in her orange jumpsuit disguise.
This again?
Was Epstein’s cell checked for fingerprints? Were no fingerprints found, indicating the cell had been scrubbed?
They were shocked!
After Trump was shot, they searched Thomas Crooks’ house. They didn’t find anything interesting because it had been thoroughly scrubbed. No fingerprints. Not even on silverware. Nothing suspicious about that, eh?
They sent The Wolf.
(S___ negro, that’s all you had to say!)
I don’t care about this video.
The video I care about is the one they DID NOT HAVE, which is for the camera on his jail cell that accidentally suddenly and inexplicably STOPPED FUNCTIONING.
That cam tells me all I need to know.
Epstein didn’t kill himself.
Yeah. Right.

Unless of course Epstein needed a little help to “commit suicide”.
Then his prison guards followed instructions quite well.
Pretty please with sugar on top. Clean the **** car.
Did his body have defensive injuries? That’s actually the definitive piece of evidence.
Nobody strangles a healthy adult male without a great deal of struggle and thrashing about that results in all sorts of bruises.
The Wolf: If I’m curt with you it’s because time is a factor. I think fast, I talk fast and I need you guys to act fast if you wanna get out of this. So, pretty please... with sugar on top. Clean the f***ing car.
The Wolf: You see that, young lady? Respect. Respect for one’s elders gives character.
Raquel: I have character.
The Wolf: Just because you are a character doesn’t mean that you have character.
This revealed nothing. AND I remember seeing this same bunch of nothing several years ago.
Here are contemporaneous notes from the interview of his cellmate:

+1 a load of hype.
Today, with AI, you can no longer believe ANY video. The FAKES are more real than real.
