FBI to release video of Jeffrey Epstein in prison ‘confirming he killed himself'
FOOTAGE confirming disgraced pedophile Jeffery Epstein died by suicide in his jail cell will soon be released, according to the FBI deputy director.
The video will prove the official police records to be correct after years of speculation over the cause of death of sex trafficker Epstein, says Dan Bongino.

In the almost six years since Epstein's death in 2019, many people have spoken out about conspiracy theories relating to potential foul play around his suicide.
Epstein was found dead in his cell at the Metropolitan Detention Center in New York on August 10 as he waited for a major trial over sex-trafficking charges.
The financier's death was officially ruled a suicide by hanging by the chief medical examiner based on the evidence available to them.
The ruling was widely supported by the Department of Justice and the FBI.
But after years of speculation, the security organisation's deputy director Bongino is now set to end all debate by releasing a video showing Epstein alone in his cell at the time of his passing.
The footage will not show his actual death.
Bongino told Fox News on Thursday: 'There's video clear as day.
'He's the only person in there and the only person coming out. You can see it.'
The agency is continuing to review the video but Bongino says it will be released to the public shortly.

It looks like an average truck accident but horror crash takes a crazy turn
A truck in Washington rolled over near the Canadian border, but the average looking accident turned chaotic after millions of bees escaped from the cargo. A commercial semi-truck carrying around 70,000 pounds of honey bee hives overturned in rural Whatcom County at round 4am on Friday. Photos of the accident show the trucks cargo load overturned onto the road, blocking both lanes. The hive cargo came off the truck at around 9am, releasing roughly 250 million bees into the air, according to the Whatcom County Sheriff's Office. Video footage captured at the site of the accident showed the mass amounts of bees swarming over the truck and within the air. Efforts to save the swarm of bees ensued, as more than two dozen volunteered on scene to assist in re-setting the box hives and allow the bees to re-hive. 'The plan is to allow the bees to re-hive and find their queen bee,' the sheriff's office said. 'The goal is to save as many bees as possible.' At around 10.30am, deputies turned the scene over to WCSO Division of Emergency Management who were assisted by several Master Beekeepers, the sheriff's office said. Weidkamp Road, where the truck overturned, remained closed throughout Friday as the process of letting the bees re-hive occurred. According to WCSO Patrol, the roadway is set to be closed between 24 and 48 hours. While the sheriff's office said 'there is no general health risk to the public,' it warned travelers and locals to stay clear of the area between Loomis Trail Road and W. Badger, Berthusen Park. Most of the bees are expected to have re-hived by Saturday morning.

Wildfire smoke exposure may shorten lung cancer survival
May 31 (Reuters) - Exposure to wildfire smoke may increase lung cancer patients' risk of dying from their disease, particularly among non-smokers, but the effect may be mitigated by certain cancer treatments, according to a large California study presented at a major medical meeting on Saturday. Researchers tracked more than 18,000 people with non-small cell lung cancer – the most common kind – between 2017 and 2020. Those living in neighborhoods with the highest levels of wildfire-caused air pollution in the year after their cancer diagnosis were more likely to die from the disease, they found. Patients who inhaled higher levels of tiny particulate matter with a diameter of 2.5 microns or less that can penetrate deeply into the lungs had a 20% greater risk of dying from lung cancer, researchers reported at the American Society of Clinical Oncology meeting in Chicago. People with advanced stage 4 cancer who had never smoked were especially affected, researchers found. Their risk of dying from cancer was 55% higher if they were exposed to high levels of wildfire air pollution. The study used advanced modeling to estimate daily air quality at patients' home addresses, based on data from satellites, weather models, smoke forecasts and air quality monitors. The researchers also found that wildfire smoke exposure did not significantly affect survival of patients with Stage 4 lung cancer with a history of smoking who were treated with an immunotherapy drug. 'This surprising trend suggests that smoke-related changes in the body may interact with certain treatments,' and more study of this phenomenon is warranted, the researchers said. Wildfire smoke is more toxic than normal air pollution. Along with particles of soil and biological materials, it often contains traces of chemicals, metals, plastics and other synthetic materials. 'As wildfires become more frequent and intense in California and other parts of the U.S., we need targeted health strategies to protect cancer patients and others with serious health problems,' said study leader Dr. Surbhi Singhal of UC Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center in Sacramento, California.

Police arrive at home of dad who killed son, 10, in murder-suicide and make an even more horrifying discovery
A father murdered his autistic son and their family dog before turning the gun on himself inside their Oklahoma home, police said. Rodney Shippy, 58, was found inside his Broken Arrow abode dead from a self-inflicted gunshot wound after allegedly killing his son Logan, 10. Police discovered the two, and their dead dog, on Wednesday while serving a search warrant after relatives reported Shippy's daughter Alyssa missing since November. Horrifyingly, the body of 20-year-old Alyssa was also found inside the home in a state of decay. According to KJRH, the children's mother Lisa, 41, took her own life inside the address back in August 2022. Five months after that Lisa's step-father Kenneth Carpenter murdered her mother, Diane, and then killed himself, the outlet reported. Police have not officially announced the identity of the woman found inside the address, but the outlet spoke with relative Patti Williams who confirmed it was Alyssa. She said: '[Rodney] seemed to be holding it together months after [Lisa] passed. Then he started estranging himself to everyone'. Logan had his own YouTube account and would frequently post videos of the garage door at the property, something he was fascinated by - Williams said. One video from March gave a detailed tour of the house, which is strewn with rubbish and in a state of disrepair. It was that video that alerted family members. Spent beer cans, cardboard boxes, old water bottles can be seen littering the ground inside the home as their cat and dog roam around the rubbish. Towards the end of the clip Rodney can be seen laying on a bed inside the property playing Minecraft as his soon films the mounds of detritus surrounding him. Williams said: 'Not suitable for a child, no running water, trash. Looked like a completely different house. 'Logan was so smart, eager to learn, everyone who met him loved him. Alyssa was a bright light in this world.' 'She had a beautiful life ahead of her, and I feel like their lives are stolen from them', Williams added. A GoFundMe has since been launched for the remaining family to cover the funeral costs of the children. It says: 'Their loss has left our family in deep grief and unprepared for the financial burden that comes with arranging their funerals. 'We are reaching out to our community, friends, and loved ones for support during this unimaginable time. 'Every contribution, no matter the size, will go directly toward funeral expenses and helping our family honor their memories with the love and dignity they deserve.' In a statement, Broken Arrow Police Department said: 'We can now confirm the adult male found dead inside the house is 58-year-old Rodney Shippy. 'The juvenile male found dead is his 10-year-old son. We will not be releasing his name. 'At this time, the identity of the woman found dead has not been confirmed. The medical examiner will conduct a full investigation to make a positive identification. However, we can confirm, Alyssa Shippy is Rodney's daughter.'
