DOJ released 11 hours of video outside Epstein's cell. One of the comments I found from someone who watched it:
They may have used the old 'take a picture of the hallway and put it in front of the camera' trick from Mission Impossible. Or more likely the looped camera footage one. If you look closely at the video, you can see the same cockroach take the same path across the upper right hand corner of the frame seven times. 😂
It has also been pointed out that there is a full minute missing between 12:59 PM and 12:00 AM, where the camera view changes slightly as well.
Spliced? Edited? System "feature"?
