[Leaning Right]

You make some very good points. I once worked in a building that had cameras everywhere. And there was a guard whose only job was to watch the monitors.

Yet we have two broken cameras in this case. I would think that two blank monitors would be hard to miss.

I spent 25 years working as an officer and Sergeant in NY State's prison system. We had recording cameras, and a microwave intrusion system on our perimeter fence. Any time an alarm went off, the camera in that area would automatically turn to that spot, and the arsenal officer had to dispatch vehicle patrol to that section to check on it. The officer would have to make a log in the book, each and every time an alarm was triggered, and the result of the vehicle patrol officer's check. If a camera was malfunctioning, it had to be logged into the book, and reported to the watch commander.

There are required safety checks that are supposed to be made on these things, along with any fire alarm systems installed. Someone was responsible for the cameras on that floor, in that section, at that time. And if there were malfunctioning cameras while Epstein was on that floor, it should have been reported, and he never should have been placed in that uncovered area.
