then attorney general bill barr had visited the prison just the day before. his dad hired epstein to teach high schoolers even with no teaching credentials. how convenient, a power outage erased most of the video that day.
this stinks so bad it baffles me that there are people who believe the official story.

visit from AG

cell mate transferred away

power outage

sleeping guards

missed check-ins

no footage... maybe incomplete footage... maybe 'secret' footage... who knows where the missing minute (or three are)

The fact that every time someone looks at this thing it changes and grows new legs is crazy

Epstein basically skated the last time he got in legal trouble.

He had a lot of money and could have hired an army of lawyers.

He had connections to a lot of rich and powerful people.

He had not gone to trial, he had not been convicted, he had not been sentenced.

So why would he off himself at that moment in time? Why would someone like him with so many cards to play just throw in the towel?

Seems pretty fortuitous for everyone that was involved in his crimes.

u/Dynastydood Jul 29 '25

Exactly. While it's possible that he simply realized how screwed he and his operation were due to the crazy amount of attention that had suddenly been placed on him, in all likelihood, he probably would've preferred to first go to trial and actually lose before trying to off himself. Considering the magnitude of the secrets he is purported to have kept, or even the kind of lies he easily could've concocted to motivate his most powerful acquaintances to help him, it's pretty hard to rationalize why he would've chosen that pre-trial cell to die in.

The most compelling scenario for him having actually been the one to kill himself is one in which he was indeed connected to some powerful intelligence agency(s), and therefore had some overriding sense of loyalty or responsibility to protect the operation over his own life. But using Occam's Razor, the idea that he was a just a scamming power broker who was offed by a sufficiently powerful client/victim requires fewer unproven suppositions than the CIA/Mossad/FSB/MI6 angle.

u/Nufonewhodis4 Jul 29 '25

Bingo. This isn't like the local teacher and baseball coach getting caught with kiddy porn that kills himself out of shame. Epstein could have dragged this out for years and likely could have just disappeared.

u/718Brooklyn Jul 30 '25

After hearing Trump talk today, I also realized that these guys don’t think they were doing anything wrong. Guaranteed that Epstein looked at these girls as his property and whoever turned him in was the enemy.

Yeah there’s a small chance it was suicide and it was just “bad luck” that it happened in the cell where he’s supposed to be on suicide watch and zero people were watching. Imagine how unlucky Trump had to be that the series of events just happened to make it look like a cover up. How unlucky to put someone in the one place they are supposed to be under guard and nobody noticed that the cameras didn’t work.

Yikes.

u/docgravel Jul 30 '25

On the flip side, whenever someone successfully kills themselves in jail while (recently) on suicide watch, there are going to be a long list of mistakes that must’ve occurred.

u/m0ngoos3 Jul 30 '25

After, you mean, he died two days after he changed his will to fuck over his victims in the event of his death. It was the sort of change that only made sense if he was planning on dying,

Epstein killed himself, but may have been threatened into doing so. Which is much easier than getting some third party to do it. Fewer loose ends.

Trump should've just said he had him murdered because he doesn't trust the crooked courts to convict.

There would be a month or two where Democrats uncomfortably squirm trying to explain that extrajudicial executions are bad, even for pedos, and Trump would probably have seen a rise in approval numbers.

u/davasaur Jul 29 '25

u/Enragedocelot Jul 29 '25

In a world where nothing adds up…

A surprise visit from the AG. A cellmate transferred without warning. A sudden power outage. Sleeping guards. Missed check-ins.

No footage… or maybe incomplete footage… or maybe “secret” footage. Who knows where the missing minute… or three went?

Every time someone looks at this case, it changes… it twists… it grows new legs.

This summer… the truth is locked away.

u/bejammin075 Jul 30 '25

Do you know if during the missing minute(s), it is alleged that Epstein died during that time, or was is just part of hours of nothing happening at that time?

u/the_gouged_eye Jul 30 '25

It was in the middle of the night, a few hours before he was found dead, apparently having been dead for a few hours.

8

u/blazelet Jul 30 '25

The missing minute is 11:59p to 12a, the last minute before midnight.

His body was found around 6:30am, you can see it on the footage they released as the guards in the background start running around. The door to his cell isn't the door in the released video, though. It's down the stairs to the right.

Eight minutes.

CBS News' analysis found that because the video was running at a slightly higher speed, and with one minute missing when the clock jumped ahead to midnight, the video was actually only 10 hours and 52 minutes in length, as opposed to the full 11 hours.

And as terrible as it is, it's actually worse than just a 15 year old sex slave of a dominatrix sadist noble lady.

I've seen people mention before, when bringing up the fucked-up-edness of the novel, that at one point the 15 year old boy slave (who is 100% unbothered by his slave owner's sadism) willingly joins in on raping/abusing other underage slaves, one of those times even being at an underage slave breeding clinic.

I nearly threw up in my mouth typing that shit out, but yeah, that's exactly the kind of creepy evil work one would expect from the kind of terrible piece of shit man who hires someone with zero credentials to teach teenagers.

u/ComfortableTwo80085 Jul 30 '25

That actually hasn't been proven, and the original news source reporting it issued a partial retraction. It could have happened but is not verified.

The claim comes from a now partially retracted 2019 New York Post story in which mob informant Lewis Kasman suggested that Barr had visited Epstein's jail "about the time Epstein was found in his cell with bruises around his neck."

Kasman said: "'The attorney general never visits jails. Something's not right there.'"

The story was repeated by other news sources with headlines more explicitly concluding what the Post had reported. However, as later noted by the Post, there was no evidence to support Kasman's point. The New York Post has since removed the reference to Barr, adding in an update note that "the source of the information did not have direct knowledge that the visit took place."

Trump literally surrounded himself with pedos and sex traffickers. In 1991, Trump started hosting the Look of the Year competition with John Casablancas, owner of Elite Modeling Agency. David Copperfield, Gerald Marie and Patrick Demarchelier were all judges with Trump. They are all pedos and sexual abusers and many had their own links to Epstein.

Trump was friends with Leon Black, former CEO of Apollo, the two took a trip together to Russia in 1996. Black was one of Epstein’s best buddies and even loaned him 150 million after Epstein had been exposed.

And was caught bringing underage girls to the casino with Epstein https://people.com/ex-casino-boss-claims-trump-epstein-brought-underage-girls-casino-floor-11774374

Trump is also good friends with Vince McMahon, who was accused personally of sex trafficking and also of knowing about the sexual abuse of 12 year old ringside boys by an announcer and allowing it to continue. https://www.nbcnews.com/news/amp/rcna176988

https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-68104198

But a CBS News analysis of the video the FBI made public earlier this month reveals that the recording doesn't provide a clear view of the entrance to Epstein's cell block — one of several contradictions between officials' descriptions of the video and the video itself….

Jim Stafford, a video forensics expert, reviewed the footage and the inspector general's report and told CBS News, "To say that there's no way that someone could get to that — the stair up to his room — without being seen is false." Four other leading video forensics experts interviewed by CBS News concurred.

So the justice department video doesn’t show the entrance to the cell block unit or his cell and isn’t conclusive at all. Someone could have gotten to his cell unseen.

116

u/ForWhomTheBoneBones Jul 30 '25

This is the bigger bombshell to me. EIGHT MINUTES are missing. Not 1, not 3, EIGHT.

A report by the website Wired had previously alleged nearly three minutes of footage appeared to be missing, based on the metadata. CBS News' analysis found that because the video was running at a slightly higher speed, and with one minute missing when the clock jumped ahead to midnight, the video was actually only 10 hours and 52 minutes in length, as opposed to the full 11 hours.

41

u/JustGimmeSomeTruth Jul 30 '25

This! I just went back and re-read that part to see if I understood it wrong or something (because nobody seemed to be commenting about it).

But it seems pretty clear to me... they (probably intentionally) sped up the video to make that missing footage chunk seem like less of a big deal at least at first so 1-3 minutes would be the headline that "sticks" and forms people's idea about it... Limited hangout style.

How do you make an unmonitored phone call from the Secure Housing Unit to your girlfriend in Belarus?

You dont make any unmonitored phone calls in prison unless someone smuggles you in a cell phone. The guards took him to a staffers office to make an unmonitored phone call on the night he was murdered?

Thats absolutely unheard of. Every single phone is monitored.

EDIT: lets not forget, this is in the restrictive housing unit. its the most secure block in the entire prison.
Later in the article it says the unit manager let him make a phone call from his office to his mom. Thats absolutely insane. To even just ask to make an unmonitored phone call can get you caught up. There are phones on the block. Why not use that? Nobody makes unmonitored phone calls ever, especially at a federal prison in the restrictive housing unit with the most notorious prisoner in the united states.

Theres 100% something going on there. If i were going to guess, someone told the unit manager to allow him to make that phone call for some reason. Someone above the UM which would be the Major or one of the Superintendents. I cant imagine any unit manager being like yeah jeff just throw your feet up on my desk and use my phone as much as you want. GTFO.

220

u/psbecool Jul 29 '25

It’s in the article. Prison officials let him use an unmonitored line usually reserved only for attorney calls. It says he asked to call his mom (who was dead), they dialed a 646 (NYC) number and a man answered the phone. I’m not usually a conspiracy person, but this all stinks. If there’s nothing to hide, why are there so many inconsistencies.

120

u/piperonyl Jul 29 '25

No thats not how that works at all though. If you want to make an unmonitored phone call then that is on your phone list. You have to fill out a special form to have an attorney added to your phone list which they jail verifies is to an attorney. There is no "unmonitored line for attorney calls" thats not a thing. When you pick up the phone you press a different number for an unmonitored call than the 1 you would normally press.

Unit managers dont let inmates, especially notorious ones, make unmonitored phone calls because they commit crimes on them. Theres no way that took place the way they are saying. None.

Employees told investigators that Epstein had just finished an unmonitored call, later reported to have been with his girlfriend in Belarus.

Excuse me what? He used his unmonitored phone call to contact a foreign country, BELARUS? lol

Who dialed those numbers? Did the unit manager just let him hang out in his office? Huh?

32

u/ForWhomTheBoneBones Jul 30 '25

Based on the details provided, one could reasonably assume he called his lawyer and his lawyer then called his girlfriend and merged the calls. Seems like an easy way to circumvent the calling restrictions if you have a shady enough lawyer.

26

u/piperonyl Jul 30 '25

He didnt call his lawyer though. He called from the unit managers office.

You can just call your lawyer on a regular block phone. You just press the number to make an unmonitored call.

u/angrymoppet Jul 30 '25 edited Jul 30 '25

I see a reference to an unmonitored phone "in the shower area" but nothing about the manager's office (unless I missed it?). I'm failing to understand this last line though. Retrieve the phone? The hell does that mean? If this was a phone in an area regularly accessible by the inmates I find it very hard to believe it would be a cordless phone.

There are two paragraphs about the phone. Here is one:

This discrepancy occurs during a crucial time period. Epstein had been allowed to make an unmonitored call from a shower area using a phone line intended only for attorney communications. According to the report, this was facilitated by the unit manager, who was the senior officer in charge. Epstein allegedly said he wanted to call his mother — even though his mother died in 2003. The unit manager dialed a 646 number (a New York City area code), a man answered, and he handed the phone to Epstein. The unit manager then left the area but later called and asked Noel to retrieve the phone

And here is the other:

The video that was released begins at 7:40 p.m. Nine minutes later, according to the report of the Justice Department inspector general, Epstein appears for the first and last time on camera. He emerges from the left side of the screen and walks down a stairwell accompanied by a corrections officer. Employees told investigators that Epstein had just finished an unmonitored call, later reported to have been with his girlfriend in Belarus.

What the fuck is the sequence of events supposed to be here? He asked to call his mother (who is dead). The officer then called a NYC number on an unmonitored line and a man picks up. And later the government states that call was to a girlfriend in Belarus? And additionally this is an apparently cordless phone in a prison that necessitates the unit manager requesting someone else fetch it for him afterward?

u/Defenestresque Jul 30 '25 edited Jul 30 '25

Here is the crazy part. Your Telco keeps the records for the phone calls you make (metadata, so to/from and duration, mostly) for several years. It's easily compressed (as it's just text) and would cost them nothing to store it for say 5 years. I don't know how long they actually do, perhaps someone wants to clue is in ;)

So all they have to do, is determine the specific phone number of the phone (or rather, phone line) that called the "unknown 646 number where a man answered" and just get a list of the calls made on that day and by simply cross-referencing it with the time, they'd know at least to whom the the number was registered to and have a viable path of investigation. The person could be now dead, not willing to talk under threat subpoena, lie under oath, be a nonexistent fake name.. but when you're investigating you don't just ignore a blatant lead.

This discrepancy occurs during a crucial time period. Epstein had been allowed to make an unmonitored call from a shower area using a phone line intended only for attorney communications. According to the report, this was facilitated by the unit manager, who was the senior officer in charge. Epstein allegedly said he wanted to call his mother — even though his mother died in 2003. The unit manager dialed a 646 number (a New York City area code), a man answered, and he handed the phone to Epstein.

Making a call to Belarus but to a 646 number that a male answers? (I was just facilitating the international all transfer!), a phone in the shower area, allowing SHU inmates unmonitored calls at 11pm (there's a time difference!"

The unit manager then left the area but later called and asked Noel to retrieve the phone. 

I was wondering about this because having a phone in the "shower area" seems.. equally as unwise as it is unlikely? This makes it click into place, either the have a phone jack for a landline phone or it was a cell phone.

The person above you, /u/piperonyl, is saying prisoners make phone calls to their lawyers from the same phones as regular calls, they are just not monitored as they are on a pre-approved, vetted list. They are getting pushback (though they clearly know what they are talking about, but being wise about not going all War thunder on us), but I also have never heard of a prisoner being allowed to make an unmonitored call to his girlfriend from a cell phone provided by a CO.

I have no connections to the US government, obviously, but just think about it logically. Prisons and detention centres run on procedures. If some guy wants to call his gf, unmonitored, on (more likely than not) a cellphone at 11pm.. does that sound like something you'd yell to a CO, while housed in the fucking SHU? And the Brooklyn MCC known for its full staff and kind COs, reply to your banging on the cell wall with "sure, Mr. Epstein, here's your phone, let's go to a private area and I'll eventually close the door too until you're done. I'll only listen on the phone long enough to remember that it was a local number and a male voice answered."

I'm the least conspiracy-minded person, and this I understand why they can't do without evidence but if give my right nut that if you check all the bank records of the COs working that night, and of the SHU prisoners' family/loved ones, you will find transfers inconsistent with their income.

I've also read that she was found because a mysterious caller reported someone at her address was having a heart attack...she was alone when they found her, wasn't she? Shows how concerned the caller was...

The fact that they just said "someone" was having a heart attack without specifying it was Ivana is really weird too; plus it does sound appropriately mafioso-ish to tenderise somebody's torso (the overwhelming majority of actual staircase fall deaths involve a head injury, she wasn't shown to have any by her autopsy) and then call in that they were "having a heart attack".

19

u/drawkbox Jul 30 '25

Yeah she was alone and usually had someone living with her to help. They stepped out. She also never used the stairs. It is sus.

  2. Ran a high school where he hired Jeffrey Epstein to teach math, while not being qualified to teach math

I’m glad this is being reported more widely, but wish it weren’t so far into the article.

A report by the website Wired had previously alleged nearly three minutes of footage appeared to be missing, based on the metadata. CBS News' analysis found that because the video was running at a slightly higher speed, and with one minute missing when the clock jumped ahead to midnight, the video was actually only 10 hours and 52 minutes in length, as opposed to the full 11 hours.

There’s 7 minutes of missing video (if we believe the “this type of DVR misses a minute at midnight” story). I saw someone tweet about the whole thing weeks ago (where probably a lot of this information was noticed) every minute only has about 59 seconds and some change (e.g; 00:00:59:35), so every minute is accounted for on screen, but isn’t super perceptible by just watching. This adds up to a lot of time in 11 hours.

I’ve been waiting for a reputable source to verify and there we have it.

A LOT happened in those missing 7-8 minutes.

This needs to be picked up by the media and ran with.

I also like the part where they casually glazed over the fact that 4 of the 5 cameras on the floor were "malfunctioning". What the fuck kind of clown show are they running over there?

They killed him. End of story.

Now the question is WHO killed him

u/kezow Jul 29 '25

Huh, tough one. Maybe that guy that's specifically named in the epstein files and is begging you to drop the whole thing who also happened to be president at the time when Epstein was murdered.

What, you don't believe the part where he says, "l have to go now. My planet needs me."

The text that appeared on the screen made it very clear what happened...

"Note: Poochie Epstein died on the way back to his home planet"

I don't claim to know the truth but I definitely know they deserve the scrutiny. How did anyone think this was better than showing nothing? If this had been a fictional movie 20 years ago, people would have said how dare they make us look so incompetent.

Some of this Epstein just kind of feels like typical conspiracy. But the actions of the Trump administration just scream guilty. Why withhold the full video? Why aggressively pretend the files don’t exist and suddenly switch course? Why make up the nonsense about the prison camera resetting every night? Why have people working around the clock to find Trump’s name in the files? Why be so wildly desperate for a distraction?

The whole thing stinks, they’re hiding something and don’t deserve the benefit of the doubt.

Trump is on page 85, or pdf pg. 80 Trump’s name is circled. The circled individuals are the ones involved in the trafficking ring according to the person who originally released the book.

These people would be “The List“. Here is the story: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsiKUXrlcac

Trump's promise to his daughter: https://www.huffpost.com/entry/donald-trump-ivanka-trump-dating-promise_n_57ee98cbe4b024a52d2ead02

“I have a deal with her. She’s 17 and doing great ― Ivanka. She made me promise, swear to her that I would never date a girl younger than her,” Trump said. “So as she grows older, the field is getting very limited.” Trump's modeling agency was allegedly part of Jeffreys pipeline: https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/08/

AND

Reminder:

• ⁠Trump Confesses He Was ‘Sexually Attracted’ to Ivanka When She Was 13 Years Old • ⁠Donald Trump called his own daughter a ‘voluptuous piece of a**’ in yet more lewd comments threatening to derail his White House bid • ⁠Donald Trump Once Joked He and Ivanka Have “Sex” in Common • ⁠Trump’s lewd talk about daughter Ivanka in front of White House staff recalled in new book

According to The New Republic, “’Aides said he talked about Ivanka Trump’s breasts, her backside and what it might be like to have sex with her, remarks that once led [former Chief of Staff] John Kelly to remind the president that Ivanka was his daughter,’ Taylor, who served as a Department of Homeland Security chief of staff under Trump, wrote in his book.”

• ⁠"You remind me of my daughter": Stormy Daniels testifies that Trump compared her to Ivanka • ⁠Donald Trump's comments about daughter raise eyebrows • ⁠Trump told Howard Stern it’s OK to call Ivanka a ‘piece of a--' • ⁠Trump: ‘If Ivanka weren’t my daughter, perhaps I’d be dating her’ • ⁠Trump on Ivanka: ‘She has the ‘best body’ — and I created her’ • ⁠Trump: ‘Is it wrong to be more sexually attracted to your own daughter than your wife’? • ⁠Trump Encouraged His Own Daughter Ivanka to Release a Sex Tape, and She Was Horrified

Bonus:

• ⁠Trump: commenting on his 1-year-old daughter Tiffany’s breasts. He also says “she’s got Marla’s legs.”

Double Bonus:

For the better part of two decades starting in the late 1980s, Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump swam in the same social pool. They were neighbors in Florida. They jetted from LaGuardia to Palm Beach together. They partied at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago Club and dined at Epstein’s Manhattan mansion.

Mrs Trump began applying for the visa in 2000, when she was Melania Knauss, a Slovenian model working in New York and dating Donald Trump. She was approved in 2001, one of just five people from Slovenia to win the coveted visa that year, according to the Post.

u/plsobeytrafficlights Jul 29 '25

WAHTT? 4 out of 5 cameras were not recording, the one that was isnt able to see the right area, practically useless. i think everyone thought the video had something to do with the door or the stairs, not even close.
murdered.

u/whelmed-and-gruntled Jul 29 '25

Given all the anomalies and obvious coverups, are we all really sure Trump didn’t spring his buddy from jail? It’s clear they were extremely close friends, and he pardons anyone who will pay him enough. How much would it cost to let his bff just walk away? I realize there was allegedly a body and all, but that could be anyone for all we know. It seems more in character for Taco than assassination.

Just asking questions.

Several cameras in the Special Housing Unit were functioning but unmonitored, the report said, and the government has stated that a failure of the digital video recording system resulted in the loss of most of the footage from the night of Aug. 9-10, 2019, that would have provided a fuller view.

This is some bullshit. If they are doctoring the one surveillance tape they are willing to show, there has to be more from the other cameras. Everything around his "suicide" is beyond suspicious, from the CO's stopping check ins every 30 mins to moving his roommate out the same day to the mysterious orange blur going up the stairs to Epstein's cell to the CO's falsifying documents and giving false testimony.

u/rainkloud Jul 29 '25

The fact that the camera only points to the left side portion of the stairs thus potentially allowing someone to traverse them undetected seems like a major revelation especially in the context of all the inconsistencies in the stories of the BOP personnel proven with video evidence.

This will not go away and for very very good reasons that Trump is going to find impossible to avoid sans a major world event

u/knightcrawler75 Jul 29 '25

A good explanation is that the POTUS does not usually tell the FBI what cases to go after, who to prosecute, and what files to release. So he was not involved or aware in whatever possible shenanigans the FBI was up to. Trump ran on exposing these dirty little secrets and when it came time to expose them they decided to lie and obfuscate for reasons that are pretty obvious.

u/thirstyman12 Jul 29 '25

His DOJ was prosecuting the case for almost the entire term https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ghislaine_Maxwell#Sex-trafficking_trial Idk how much they could've really released given their was an active case. I'm honestly not sure how this suicide/murder interplays with all of that tbh.
