FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino said on Fox News Thursday morning that he is certain Jeffrey Epstein, the disgraced financier and convicted sex offender, died by suicide while in federal custody — and there is video that supports it.
“There is nothing in the file at this point on the Epstein case — and there is going to be a disclosure on this coming shortly… there is video. That is something the public does not know,” Bongino said in an interview on Fox & Friends.
Bongino clarified that the video in question does not show the “actual act” but proves that Epstein was the only person who came in or out of his cell on the night he died, on August 10, 2019.
They just needed ‘deepfake’ tech to become more advanced, otherwise they would have released it earlier. /s
Who cares about the video, release the investigation and names of people involve.
A high profile running a rape operation on US soils and they are scared to share info about it.
Land of the free
We already know Trump went to the island several times, but that didn’t stop people from voting for him.
Do they have proof that guards who were suppose to be watching him have a good excuse for allowing it to have happened?
Exactly what I thought.
I’ve seen the video! It’s proof! They even got his prison MS13 hand tat, you can see all the letters of “MISS13” in Calibri font clearly on his six fingers.
Damn that’s good lol.
The lead sentence there cracks me up…deputy FBI director DAN BONGINO LOL.
What a joke this government is.
cocky want DAN BONGINO
They will present it when they can remove the Google AI logos off all frames.
Also in two weeks
Very convenient that it’s revealed so long after he was killed.
And at a time where the perps can fully control the narrative and after DOGE destroyed all the evidence.
Very convenient he dies in the end of Trump presidency 1, followed by four years of nothing, Trump gets reelected and suddenly there’s evidence he killed himself.
After AI video generation got much better.
Even if he did he was persuaded to do by threat of torture. Quit lying to us and release his client list
I don’t wanna be that guy but it’s funny to me that this is suddenly true after many statements that there is no video and after GenAI/deepfake has hit the mainstream.
I don’t want to be that guy either but it’s also after the guy with known ties to Epstein is the President again and appointed his zealot to run the FBI.
All of it is probably coincidence and/or incompetence but god damn are they making it look like a coverup.
Funny thing is though he used to say he didn’t kill himself and started to have his supporters get mad about his change of tune
And that fresh new video generator by Google is scary good
The video features a second person labeled Epstein with a sharpie hanging Epstein.
Deepfakes can still be recognized as doctored.
They’re saying there’s video showing that no one else could have been in there at the time. There’s still no vid of Epstein’s cell room.
So all they’d have to do with that is change the time and date for the video time stamp and then show us films of empty hallways?
My thoughts exactly
How many fingers does he have in the video?
They just had to wait for generative AI to get good enough first!
That’s what I immediately thought. Like how else would you benefit from waiting so long to release it after saying there was no footage.
They release the tape
Epstein sits alone on the bed in his cell wearing a fancy golf shirt and jeans, the standard prison uniform, according to the FBI
He reaches for a burlap rope from his Acme toolbox with all three of his arms.
As he ties the rope around his neck, his face slowly appears to morph into different actors from royalty-free stock videos.
Once he secured the leather belt around his neck, the couch he was sitting on vanished underneath him, concluding his demise.
Several minutes later, the guards burst through the door to Mr JEFPY ESTÆN’s cell. They realize they are too late and conga line dance out of the prison.
I want to watch that video.
When I was a kid, there was a black and white magazine sold in stores that had articles about bigfoot, and elvis being alive, and all this other absurd bullshit. I knew it was all fake, but thats why I loved it. It was absurdism for the sake of unintentional comedy.
This would be the modern day version of that.
Weekly World News! They still have an email newsletter it’s pretty funny
Oh my god…I wonder if I could find someone selling a collection on ebay. This is ABSOLUTELY it.
My mom would never buy it. She kept telling me how it was fake. Yeah. I know. I wasn’t trying to buy actual news. I wanted crazy shit.
I bet SOMEONE is selling these.
It was at least kinder, humorous and creative. The National Enquirer which is packed with made up stuff designed to hurt and exploit people.
The bat boy stuff always astounded me at the grocery store.
So good!!!
I miss this kind of conspiracy theory/crazy subculture. Innocent and fun.
Like Bigfoot isn’t real, but I would be happy if he was. Bigfoot still lets you be around the kinds of people who are far off the beaten path, but you don’t get the disgusting racism/sexism/harmful insanity that we’re getting with the current lot of crazies.
I still remember when Bat Boy took down Osama Bin Laden.
Acme toolbox
I would’ve figured the rope was either a stretchy rope or it came with a rickety stool that catapults itself into the ceiling after being stood on.
Not likely, it’s too easy to distinguish from the real thing. Staging the same cell and manipulating the timestamps in the video is much easier.
This is what chain of custody is for. Without documentation of origin and history of the videos, they are worthless and prove nothing.
Doesn’t mean that “top officials” won’t make press announcements that they prove all sorts of things.
…if there’s one thing bob and doug mckenzie taught me, it’s that time stamps are very difficult to fake…
I’ve seen law abiding citizen, yo.
So they admit that they just straight up violated suicide watch rules?
and that they’ve been hiding evidence
This really doesn’t help the FBI’s case at all.
This is unfortunately very common even in hospitals. Busy (or lazy) staff just check off their rounds without actually seeing patients all the time, so I think this is 100% plausible in a jail.
I’m not sure you remember the climate around Epstein at the time. The whole world was talking about him. You can’t just oops I forgot to check on him.
It’s what happened right? No guards checked on him?
I I can’t tell if you’re a gaslighting bot or just intentionally being dismissive. Pretending like this was some run of the mill situation is insane. This guy has just gone down for crimes that implicated lots of very powerful people. Everyone all over the world was watching the case very closely. At the time people were actively expecting him to get assassinated at any moment.
They’re not gaslighting though. No one checked on him when he supposedly killed himself. They didn’t discover the body till 6:30am. No one had been to his tier since 10:30 the night before. That’s 8 hours of no supervision, where they were supposed to check every half hour.
The guards that were supposed to check on him every 30 minutes were reported to have been sleeping. The guards just never checked on him for 8 whole hours, where literally anything could have happened.
That’s the point. That shouldn’t have happened, and this case is way too high profile for it to have happened organically. If nobody checked on him, there has to have been a reason for it.
Correct, it shouldn’t have happened, but it did. Everything, literally every part of his death, screams something shady happened.
The whole world anticipating he’s going to get taken out and the guards decide to leave a 8 hour window while they slept. And this doesn’t look ridiculous to you?
Of course it’s fucking ridiculous. But it’s exactly what happened. He was left alone, unsupervised, for 8 hours.
And this is why hospitals (and secure facilities) have physical locations that the employees have to touch.
The old method for security guards was a key, which fit into locks embedded in the walls around the building. The locks actually feed to time meters; When the guard turns their key, it marks the current time. More modern systems use wands or badges, which scan into little infrared or RFID scanners. The guard just scans them as they walk past. So management can check the timestamps and know that security actually made their rounds; If a guard is slacking, there won’t be any timestamps when they should have been making their rounds.
And hospitals have started implementing similar things with nurses and support staff. Hand washing stations that require a badge scan, and detect how long the sink ran, and if soap was dispensed. If a nurse isn’t washing their hands, it’s pretty obvious by looking at their badge scans. Bedside charts that require badge scans and info from the connected equipment (like the thermometer, blood pressure cuff, etc) in the hospital room, so they can’t just mark it as done from the nurses station; They need to physically go into each room, scan their badge, and take readings before it will be marked as done.
I was in the hospital last year, and if they didn’t have the cart with them, they’d always scan the thing holding my IV when they came to check on stuff. The staff were almost annoyingly always present, which is way better than other stays where I’d practically only see the staff that brought meals, or my IV machine beeped cause it was empty.
This is absolutely not common for suicide watch in hospitals. A nurse or aide is assigned to sit in the room with them at all times. They literally can’t leave to use the bathroom without being replaced.
I should clarify that I meant safety rounding at intervals, like was the case with Epstein. He was on Q30 rounds, which were the ones falsified. It would’ve been basically impossible to falsify a true 1-to-1.
Yep, people jumping to conspiracy theories when the real lesson to be learned is “the US does not give a single fuck about the safety of prisoners.”
I can vouch for this.
Source: I was a federal prisoner during COVID.
I watched this Vince Vintage video a while back where he goes into just how terribly run the prison was. It has a max capacity of 480 inmates but was at 750 at the time of Epstein’s arrival with only 18 guards for the whole prison.
The two guards watching the entire block were working a 16 hour double shift, and they were caught on camera sleeping. There’s a lot of other odd things that Vance goes over
If by suicide, he meant “assisted suicide”
