Epstein prison CCTV is finally RELEASED 6yrs after paedo's ‘suicide'…as probe ‘reveals whether financier killed himself'
Published: Invalid Date,
PRISON CCTV outside Jeffrey Epstein's cell has finally been released six years after the paedo was found dead.
Around 11 hours of footage has been released from inside the Metropolitan Correctional Centre in New York City on the 9th and 10th of August in 2019.

It shows a grey-haired Epstein in an orange jump suit being led to his cell by a guard from the left of the footage.
The pair move down a small flight of stairs and walk across the common area as they walk to the cell.
CCTV footage doesn't show Epstein's cell door, but it would capture anyone walking to it, the Justice Department said.
Other than the guard leaving, no one walks across the common area towards Epstein's cell or away from it.
The footage was caught between 7.40pm and 10am the next day.
The disgraced financier was found hanged in jail on the 10th, but speculation has been rife that others were involved.
FBI deputy director Dan Bongino pledged to release the footage after it had been a Donald Trump campaign promise.
Bongino wants to end all debate by releasing proof that no one entered or left the cell before the suicide.
The FBI has now concluded Epstein died by suicide and that he had no "client list" used to blackmail powerful figures.
Investigators found "no credible evidence … that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals" and no "evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties".
Bongino said the footage will prove the official police records to be correct.
Attorney general Pam Bondi released hundreds of pages of information connected to Epstein in March, promising it would disclose "a lot of names" and flight logs that would "make you sick".
But the much-awaited release of flight logs and more was overhyped by Bondi and fell flat.
Elon Musk has also accused Trump of being in the files after the pair's relationship broke apart.
Musk provided no evidence and later deleted the post saying he went "too far".

Trump voters say president's tariffs are major red flag for them: new poll
Many supporters of President Donald Trump are not fans of his trade policies, with a new poll showing them slamming his tariffs. A poll by Politico and Public First conducted in June found that between a quarter and almost half of those who backed Trump in last year's election harbor doubts about various parts of his tariff policies, particularly when it comes to China. Only half of Trump voters think his tariffs on China will benefit U.S. companies, according to the poll. This comes as the president has refocused his efforts on trade and bringing industries back to the U.S. Trump recently sent off several contentious tariff letters to other countries, which outlined his threats to put in place major new tariffs. The poll from mid-June, well before the tariff letters were sent, reveals that Trump may lose some supporters over his policies. While he promised during the 2024 campaign to bring down the cost of living, his trade policies now may rock the global economy and push up inflation. Roughly one in four Trump voters said in the poll that the tariffs are damaging the ability of the U.S. to negotiate trade deals with other countries. The president's supporters are also evenly split on whether Trump should have the power to impose tariffs, with 44 percent saying he should have Congress 's approval versus 45 percent who say he should have the authority to put in place the levies. Trump has said that he may put in place yet another round of tariffs on August 1, threatening a 30 percent tariff on goods from Mexico and the European Union. The tariffs, which Trump has claimed will bring in 'big money' to the U.S., are paid by the importer, and many companies pass those costs on to the customer. Forty-six percent of Trump voters said they back tariffs on China 'even if it increases prices at home.' Meanwhile, 32 percent say they only support tariffs if it doesn't raise prices, and nine percent said they oppose tariffs. Twenty-five percent of Trump voters said the tariffs on China hurt U.S. companies. However, 55 percent said that while it will be challenging to get a deal with China, they expect that the president 'will be able to do it.' Eighteen percent said it won't be difficult to reach an agreement. Twelve percent said Trump won't be able to get a deal with the second-largest economy in the world. Among those who voted for former Vice President Kamala Harris, 47 percent said the same. Eighty-six percent of Harris voters said the tariffs are damaging to the U.S. ability to arrange better trade deals.

Trump defends Bondi amid backlash over Epstein files
July 12 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump defended Attorney General Pam Bondi on Saturday amid backlash against her from some of Trump's supporters over how the Justice Department handled the investigation into the death of accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein and his alleged clientele. Trump said "nobody cares about" Epstein, and that more time or energy must not be wasted on his case, as he tried to unite his base of supporters in a nearly 400-word post on Truth Social. "What's going on with my "boys" and, in some cases, "gals?" They're all going after Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB! We're on one Team, MAGA, and I don't like what's happening," Trump said. In a joint memo released on Monday, the FBI and Justice Department said there was no evidence to support a number of long-held conspiracy theories about Epstein's death in federal custody in 2019 and his alleged clientele. Conservative influencers from Laura Loomer to Elon Musk have criticized Bondi and FBI Director Kash Patel for their findings, which came months after Bondi pledged to reveal major revelations about Epstein, including "a lot of names" and "a lot of flight logs." U.S. media, including Fox News and NBC News, have reported that FBI deputy director Dan Bongino has clashed with Bondi over the issue and is considering stepping down. Patel and Bongino, a former conservative podcaster, both previously made statements before working at the FBI about a so-called client list and often suggested that the government was hiding information about Epstein from the American public. Monday's memo on Epstein concluded that after reviewing more than 300 gigabytes of data, there was "no incriminating client list" nor was there any evidence that Epstein may have blackmailed prominent people. The memo also confirmed prior findings by the FBI which concluded that Epstein died by suicide in his jail cell while awaiting trial, and not as a result of a criminal act such as murder. Epstein's death while imprisoned in New York's Metropolitan Correctional Center has ignited controversy for years. Expectations for key revelations in his case grew when, in February, Fox News asked Bondi whether the Justice Department would be releasing Epstein's client list, and she said, "It's sitting on my desk right now to review." On Tuesday at the White House, Bondi walked that comment back, telling reporters that she was referring to the entire Epstein "file" along with other files pertaining to the assassinations of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. "That's what I meant by that," she said.
