FBI source says agency has 'missing minute' from Epstein jail tape
Daily Mail ^ | July 30 | By KATELYN CARALLE

Posted on 07/30/2025 7:35:45 AM PDT by RandFan

The minute of surveillance video allegedly 'missing' from the footage of the night Jeffrey Epstein was found dead in his prison cell has apparently been found.

A source familiar with the investigation told the Daily Mail that the FBI and DOJ are both in possession of the minute of video that the agencies previously said was not there because of a tape transition that occurred automatically every night.

The Justice Department released earlier this month nearly 11 hours of surveillance footage of the area of the prison leading to Epstein's cell the night he died.

It was meant to prove that no one went towards the convicted child sex offender that night as conspiracies raged that Epstein was murdered to prevent him from spilling secrets about high-profile co-conspirators.

Sleuths quickly found there was a one–minute gap in the footage overnight from August 9 to August 10, 2019, which only led to more speculation that a cover-up was underway. The time code on the screen jumped forward one-minute just before midnight.

When the video was released earlier this month, it was described as 'raw' footage.

Attorney General Pam Bondi was questioned about the video in a July 8 Cabinet meeting, and she claimed the Bureau of Prisons told her it was an antiquated process that happened every night when the tapes automatically reset.

Now it's revealed the FBI is in possession of a version of the video that includes the missing minute.

A friend of mine worked with this type of surveillance. It’s like the end page on fische etc.

Really feels like they are trying to muddy the water. The story changes constantly. What is true? What do they have? What will they release? It’s not this, it’s that. Oh, no — it’s not that, it’s this.

They seem to want everyone to throw up their hands and say, “It’s hopeless. We will never know. Let’s talk about other things.”

Wonder which studio it was produced by?

There was an analysis that showed there were actually 3 minutes missing, which would have required human manipulation even if the system really did automatically cut off 1 minute. If they have the 1 minute that suggests that the system DIDN’T cut out 1 minute and that was all cover for the manipulation/editing that was done.

My hope is that the editing was done so those who killed Epstein would think they got away with it, while the real investigation tracks down all the evidence to bring charges.

1.) Everything should be released.
2.) If this “source” was not authorized by the Trump team to release it, there should be hell to pay. Democrat activists must be weeded out.

“The story changes constantly.”

**********

That’s the only constant. Seems that Bondi trusts before verifying.

I don’t really follow the Epstein scandal much any more. It’s sort of a background noise thing. But it will become a priority for me if it never gets traction by the end of Trump’s term.

BlondiBondi said this tape was typical and she would release more showing they were all like that. Try the night before Epstein killed himself.

As far as I can tell, she still hasn’t released any. So that means she lied or she was told inaccurate info.

If the tape is a big nothing then why not show it.

She continues to bungle this.

The more they screw this up the more I have to look at whether Epstein was smuggled out or he was murdered.

Exactly what I was thinking.

I can’t come to any conclusion about this chaos other than it is unacceptable and Bondi needs to be fired. She is incompetent at best.

If Trump loses the majority this will consume the last two years.

House Oversight Committee wanted the investigation shut down so bad that Higgins tried to pretend one no vote won the vote. That hearing was ridiculous and forced Republicans to go on the record. I am not even sure the GOP voted for it before the forced roll call.

I cannot see her lasting long with these changing stories but don’t like to post too much negative sentiment

Fun fact: “The X-Files” and “Millennium” are works of fiction created by Chris Carter.

Then it is real simple. BlondiBondi can do what she said she was going to do. Show other daily examples of Epstein’s surveillance that look EXACTLY like the one that she promoted was raw footage.

“Just enough” negative sentiment to undermine President Trump and perhaps doom him.

How very Sen. Paul of you!

When are you going to call for President Trump to resign or be removed by Congress?

If you DON’T have TDS — how would you act differently if you did?

A few days ago there was no missing minute and now they found it?!
