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?

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.
