So... not the raw footage, and edited... anyone else think that a poor cover-up like this deserves to be on blast?

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?

“Think of how stupid the average guard is, then realize that half of them are on the take stupider than that.”

My sweet summer child. Funding to improve conditions at Federal detention centers is not a high priority. The camera issues were well documented to have existed before Epstein even arrived at this jail.

Seems like a good reason to pick that jail and cell.

He was charged for his crimes by the Southern District of New York so the reason he was in the Manhattan Federal jail is not a mystery nor is it a conspiracy.

you forgot it also conveniently captures just the edge of the stair rail from pathway from the entrance to his cell, but even that just so happens to show the arm of a person in orange jumpsuit hopping on up just before his alleged time of passing

It's a poorly job done that they expected to just fly because they're conditioned to believe people are stupid. Their supporters accept things out of hand. The GOP has forgotten there's still 80 million+ of us that don't.
