This just continues to get stranger and stranger! Remember when Pam Bondi released the Epstein video footage from outside his jail cell and claimed it was completely unedited? And then we learned that actually it was highly edited.. Then we learned one minute was missing… Then they said that’s ok and normal because the software just does that as it resets each night and it was lost forever but didn’t show anything anything so it’s ok… Then we learned the video probably doesn’t actually show Epstein’s cell in the first place… And now? Now we’re being told that missing one minute has somehow been found and released to the public. Here it is: Newly released footage fills the one-minute gap in Jeffrey Epstein’s jail surveillance video on the night of his suicide. The disputed minute spans from 11:58:59 pm on Aug. 9, 2019, to midnight on Aug. 10, 2019. pic.twitter.com/LHDaiA7qsF — Fox News (@FoxNews) September 3, 2025 CBS News confirms what can be seen in the video above, namely nothing much happens in the video: The so-called “missing minute” from the security camera video of the jail tier where the infamous sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein died is no longer missing. The gap in the footage captivated online conspiracy theorists and amateur sleuths when the FBI first made public the jail footage earlier this year. At the time, Attorney General Pam Bondi attributed this gap to a nightly DVR reset at the prison. “There was a minute that was off that counter, and what we learned from Bureau of Prisons was every year, every night, they redo that video,” Bondi told reporters. “Every night is reset, so every night should have that same missing minute.” But a more complete version of the video made public by Congress Tuesday includes that missing minute of footage, contradicting Bondi’s explanation and pouring cold water on wild theories about what occurred during that short stretch inside the Metropolitan Correctional Center, where Epstein was held. CBS News has reached out to the Justice Department for comment. What is clear now from the newly released version of footage is that nothing apparently unusual occurs during that interval. The Department of Justice’s Office of Inspector General reported in 2023 that between 4 p.m. and midnight the night of Aug. 9, 2019, responsibility for rounds and inmate counts in the Special Housing Unit mostly fell to two staff members: Tova Noel, a corrections officer, and another employee identified only by the title “Material Handler.” The material handler was working his third consecutive 8-hour shift. Just after 11:59 p.m., a man, believed to be that material handler, walks away from the guard desk and walks off screen in the direction of the main entrance to the Special Housing Unit or SHU. That figure is likely finishing his shift and heading home. While he does pass in front of the stairs leading to Epstein’s tier, he does not appear to be approaching the cells where Epstein resided, but instead seemed to be heading out of the SHU. Epstein is believed to have died soon afterwards, sometime in the early morning hours. His death was officially ruled a suicide by the New York Office of the Chief Medical Examiner, based on forensic analysis of his body. The new version of the video does answer some questions, and raises new ones. It captures a period from 6 p.m. on Aug. 9, 2019, to 7 a.m. Aug. 10, covering the stretch when Epstein returned to the SHU the evening before his death and the next morning, when his body was discovered by a corrections officer delivering breakfast. I am still not clear on how this footage was suddenly “found” after all this time? Where was it? Who found it? What kind of chain of custody is there to establish it’s real? If it is real, why was Pam Bondi unable to find it originally? None of this makes any sense. Fox News confirms the oddities: Fox News Digital combined the two clips after the latest release on Tuesday, showing there was indeed no lapse in footage — contradicting Attorney General Pam Bondi’s previous explanation that the last minute of footage is deleted every night. “What we learned from Bureau of Prisons was every night the video is reset, and every night should have the same minute missing,” Bondi previously said in a meeting at the White House. It is unclear why the footage disappeared, though the minute that was missing from the original drop did not reveal any action inside the jail block. The DOJ found Epstein committed suicide inside his New York City jail cell while awaiting further sex trafficking charges. The attorney general’s office could not immediately be reached by Fox News Digital for comment. RELATED REPORTS: GLENN BECK: The FBI Called Me, Epstein Video Footage DOES Exist! BREAKING: FBI & DOJ Have FULL Version of Epstein Jail Cell Video WITHOUT the “Missing Minute” BREAKING: Metadata From The “Raw” Epstein Prison Video Shows 2:53 Minutes Removed! First we were told the Epstein Prison Video was not edited in any way other than to clean it up and make it easier to see. Then we were told one-minute was missing, but there's an explanation for now. Now today experts have scrutinized the video and found more footage is missing than initially believed -- nearly 3 minutes of footage is now believed to be missing. You have GOT to be kidding me: BREAKING: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips, per WIRED. — Leading Report (@LeadingReport) July 15, 2025 The report comes from Wired and here's a summary of what they just reported: DOJ released ~11 hours of surveillance footage from outside Epstein’s cell to address rumors about his death. Footage was labeled “raw,” but metadata shows it was edited using Adobe Premiere Pro. It was stitched from at least two clips and saved multiple times. A gap of nearly 3 minutes was cut from one clip—roughly 2 minutes and 53 seconds—ending right at a one-minute jump from 11:58:58 pm to 12:00 am. Attorney General Pam Bondi explained the one-minute gap as due to the prison's nightly recording system reset, saying this happens daily. Video anomalies include changing aspect ratios and metadata timestamps, raising questions about chain of custody—even if no intentional wrongdoing is proven. Experts caution edits may be routine—for example, converting proprietary formats to MP4—but warn that forensic metadata should be fully explained for clarity. MAGA-aligned voices, including Dan Bongino and others, criticized the DOJ/FBI for calling the video “raw” and have asked for more transparency. The DOJ/FBI reaffirmed their 2019 conclusion of suicide, stating there's no evidence of a client list or foul play.

The outlet… pic.twitter.com/LHM9G2Sjf3 — Collin Rugg (@CollinRugg) July 11, 2025 NEW: Metadata from the 'raw' Jeffrey Epstein prison video "was likely modified," according to a new report from WIRED. The outlet says they analyzed the 10-hour prison video with "independent video forensics experts" who concluded the "raw" footage was modified. The outlet emphasized that at the moment, there is no evidence the footage was "deceptively manipulated" in any way, but says it was modified to some extent. "Rather than being a direct export from the prison’s surveillance system, the footage was modified, likely using the professional editing tool Adobe Premiere Pro," WIRED found. "The file appears to have been assembled from at least two source clips, saved multiple times, exported, and then uploaded to the DOJ’s website, where it was presented as 'raw' footage." "Experts caution that it’s unclear what exactly was changed, and that the metadata does not prove deceptive manipulation." The development comes as Deputy Director of the FBI Dan Bongino reportedly took the day off today after clashing with AG Pam Bondi over the handling of the prison footage. BREAKING: Metadata shows the footage from Jeffery Epstein’s cell that was released by the DOJ was edited with Adobe Premiere Pro, stitched from 2 clips, and was saved 4 times, per WIRED pic.twitter.com/L2UFzzbEsZ — Election Wizard (@ElectionWiz) July 11, 2025 Editing of the video should not be entirely surprising as the DOJ told us from the beginning they were enhancing the video to make it easier to see. Per The Hill, they even released an Original Version and an Enhanced Version: But more skepticism emerged after the video’s release regarding the timestamp, which appears to jump ahead one minute at midnight on Aug. 10. The jump is noticeable in the original video and an enhanced version from the FBI. So that part's not surprising. The surprising part is stitching together two different video sources.  That doesn't sound right and it doesn't sound good. The news of the editing was first broken by Wired: BREAKING: Metadata shows the FBI’s ‘raw’ Jeffrey Epstein prison video was likely modified. https://t.co/kT890Zoc1o — WIRED (@WIRED) July 11, 2025 Here is a quick summary of the key points made in that article: The DOJ released nearly 11 hours of surveillance footage from outside Jeffrey Epstein’s cell the night before his death, labeling it as “full raw” footage. Metadata shows the footage was edited, likely using Adobe Premiere Pro, suggesting it was assembled from multiple clips and saved several times. Experts say there’s no proof of deception, but the editing indicates the video was not completely untouched, possibly reformatted for public release. A one‑minute gap in the footage (from 11:58:58 PM to 12:00:00 AM) is present; the DOJ attributes this to a routine system reset that happens nightly. Technical issues noted include changes in aspect ratio and compression artifacts, leading experts to doubt the footage would be admissible as raw evidence in court. Although the timeline appears intact beyond the gap, the labeling of the video as “raw” has been criticized as misleading and may amplify public skepticism. DOJ and FBI maintain the footage supports the official conclusion: Epstein died by suicide and no unauthorized individuals accessed his cell tier. Critics argue the editing should have been disclosed, as the lack of transparency fuels further suspicion. Attorney General Pam Bondi, appointed under the Trump Administration, defended the DOJ’s release, stating the gap was purely technical and the video supports the established narrative. What's your view on that?
