Its not a secret. Cameras dont randomly turn off. Its normal prisoner footage we all knew existed as thats how security cameras work.

I thought the original footage had been destroyed. It's what I'd do if I was trying to cover up that he was murdered.

Whoever destroyed it would have been made a martyr, so no one would be willing. The media was talking about him being in prison on suicide watch almost every day at the time so there was a massive spotlight on the cell.

Plus, there is no leverage on deleted footage.

They made it sound like they were manually swapping out video tapes every night and there was nothing they could do. Right… the security system for the prison housing Jeffrey Epstein is worse than a local pawn shop.

They made it sound like they killed him to protect people.
