https://thehill.com/homenews/news/458922-video-from-camera-outside-epstein-jail-cell-unusable-reportAt least one camera stationed in the hallway outside billionaire financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epsteins prison cell, where officials say he hung himself earlier this month, had footage that was deemed unusable, The Washington Post reports.
While one hallway camera had unusable footage, another nearby camera caught clearer video, the Post noted, adding that it is unknown why certain footage was useable while some was not, as well as the extent of the glitch.
Epstein's death in federal custody as he awaited trial on sex trafficking and abuse charges raised a series of questions. He was jailed at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Manhattan, where New York Citys chief medical examiner later determined he killed himself.
Attorney General William Barr said he was appalled and angry over the circumstances surrounding Epsteins death and directed the FBI and the Justice Department Inspector General to investigate it. Officials plan to use the footage recorded in determining whether protocol was violated or laws were broken.

Well, gee whiz. You would almost think that someone didn't want anyone to see what was happening.

I'm so happy that Barr is "appalled" and "angry". Surely that means that he will get to the bottom of this.

what is that saying dead men tell no tales. They made sure Epstein didn't spill the beans. Too many crusty dirty ole men were involved with this filthy pedophile, assaulter of girls.

Title of article:
'A deep and boiling anger': NBC/WSJ poll finds a pessimistic America despite current economic satisfaction
A new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll finds that 70 percent of Americans say they're angry at the political establishment
My comment: This is how it begins, sooner or later we will rise.
