Footage tied to Jeffrey Epstein’s death in federal custody appears to have been altered before it was shared with the public—despite being presented as unedited surveillance video—according to a joint investigation by WIRED and multiple independent video forensics experts.
Here’s what the analysis uncovered:
Hidden metadata embedded in the video file revealed that the footage wasn’t a direct export from the prison’s internal surveillance system. Instead, the file had been processed—apparently using Adobe Premiere Pro, a professional-grade video editing program. Evidence suggests it was stitched together from at least two separate clips, saved multiple times, and exported before being posted on the Department of Justice’s website as if it were “raw” footage.
But you’d have to be really stupid to think it’s the most likely possibility.
So, there are no Epstein files, Ghislaine was not involved in pimping underaged girls and it’s all just a big nothing. Good to know.

Wow, this was really amateurishly done. That is, it seems to have been done by an practitioner, but someone who left in the metadata? Everybody knows about metadata now- was this left in deliberately by someone who wanted to sabotage the process?

Jorge: This is the same administration that published a report on the nation’s health that was written by AI and cited sources that didn’t exist. “Amateurish” is just how they roll.
As to the topic of the post: If there were no Epstein clients and no sex trafficking, as they want us to believe, why is Ghislaine Maxwell in prison?

Boltzmann brains are also theoretically possible. Important to keep such rarefied matters in mind, lest it dull, as our shitlords would have it do.
Good point, Jorge. Incompetence is so indistinguishable from malice in the Trump kakistocracy that it’s a tossup. Then again, it can also be read as a technologically updated version of the tape left on the door in the Watergate break-in, a cockup so amateurish it suggests wanting to be caught. Snakes scheming on snakes all the way down, in this pluralistic oligarchy. Same as it ever was.

Reminds me of how everyone thinks “military grade” is a synonym for “best.” It often isn’t. Even among professionals, actual competence and attention to important details is rare. Every field I’m familiar with this is true, I expect it is for assassins, blackmailers and so on.

I remember shortly after the Epstein death-in-custody seeing a photo posted of Epstein’s body with a noose right next to it. The neck had an at-least-somewhat-bloody circle part way round, but the noose was pristinely bloodless.
The closest I could find to that was this article with different photographs of the Epstein body, the cell, a photograph of a noose made from bed sheeting, etc. This photo of the Epstein body shows the same at-least-somewhat bloody circle partway around it and “the” noose of bed sheeting material is pristinely bloodless.
The interpretation I read at the time ( and which I still accept) was that showing a photo of the somewhat-bloody neck and a pristinely bloodless noose in the same photo-reveal operation was sending a very crude message to every viewer of those photos. That message was that the authorities can assassinate even the most high profile detainee inside a jail and mock us viewers with a clearly unbloodied and uninvolved noose to show us that they don’t even bother to conceal that Epstein was assassinated and they are so powerful that they can rub it in our face to mock us with our own powerlessness to do anything about it.
Here is the link to those photographs including the bloody neck and the pristinely bloodless noose.

I also remember how the first time Epstein was “caught” having “tried to hang himself” that Attorney General Barr railed angrily about the “incompetence” and etc. of the Jail Personnel and waddled over to the jail himself to lecture the staff on how this must not happen again. I chose to interpret that as meaning that he was condemning their “incompetence” at failing to successfully suicide Epstein the first time and that the second time they had better make sure that the suiciding succeeded.
So, yes, it is theoretically possible that Epstein really hung himself without assistance, just as it is possible that some Tasmanian Tigers still live on not quite extinct yet in the most remote parts of Tasmania. Possible, but not likely.

So far, a typical “cleaning operation”. It is rare that official malfeasance is punished by a normal trial procedure. After all, judges are usually dependent on having good relations to officers of state.
But nevertheless, it sends a powerful message that if you engage in the kind of shady business Epstein did, you are likely to meet a violent end. Good so far.

And, of course, Virginia Giuffre’s suicide gets overlooked.
The contradiction is Maxwell. If Epstein was murdered, why leave Maxwell alive as potential wild card? She’s an perpetual liability so long as she’s alive and yet she;s alive and well.
Brunel also allegedly hung himself in his jail cell.
Tune to 9:07. Dear Leader can do no wrong and perchance he does, he will always be forgiven.

So why did nobody take J.D. Vance aside a month ago and tell him to stop calling for the release of the Epstein client list, since there was no list to release?
And of course the DoJ could not have told us any this in 2017, instead they had to dangle out the possibility of a list for the better part of a decade and two presidential administrations?.
Ima call bullshit.

The fun part will be to watch MAGA pretend that Trump administration incompetence is part of some elaborate 5-D chess move.

That Giuffre is dead and Ghislaine is still alive is not a contradiction. Ghislaine is alive because she has a credible second-strike capability against the Depravist Establishment
and she has made sure that they know she has it. That’s why they did not dare to suicide her or mugging-gone-wrong her or some other implausibly deniable assassination method.

The Eilte Depravists had infrastructure to supply their personal depravist needs before Epstein and in parallel to Epstein with no connection to Epstein, and I feel confident that the elite depravists still have a whole infrastructure of people and places devoted to satisfying all their depravists desires and urges. They could even have video-gathering and blackmail practicing capability. Why would we ever know of their existence? We are not among their prospective customer base.
Canadian blogger Jeff Wells at his Rigorous Intuition 2.0 Blog wrote a number of articles about the Elite Depravists. They are scattered among a category called; ” The Military-Occult Complex, ritual abuse/mind control, and “High Weirdness” “. Here is an article from that category of articles.

Oh look . . . here is an article claiming that Trump is getting panicky over growing MAGA displeasure with Trump trying to coverup the Epstein Files. ( As Watergate should remind us all, including Trump . . . ” It’s not the crime, its the coverup” . . . that gets you).
Trump is now saying its all Obama’s fault somehow. The article is titled:

If she doesn’t have the kind of ” dead-man’s pedal” protection against being killed for knowing too much which I theorized was the only thing keeping her alive till now, then this move will certainly get her killed. And really, is there any dead-man’s pedal/ second-strike capability which could even BE strong enough to keep her alive and healthy after this offer?
Perhaps it is time to consider another theory . . . Theory B if you will. Perhaps the Inner Establishments and the Intelligence Community and the silent keepers of Traditional Power have decided that the time has come to rid themselves of this turbulent president. If so, a drip …drip… drip… release of the Epstein file contents from various oozing orifices, including Ghislaine Maxwell herself, might be the way to get this President out of office and out of the way. We could be witnessing the slow-rolling CIA “assassination” of a President.
We should get ready for the possibility of President Vance sooner than we expected.
Dry-humping a couch is small beer compared to all the things Trump has done and seen and knows. Perhaps the files will come out. Perhaps we will see footage of Trump and Clinton together in the same room at the same time with the same underage girl or girls. ( Perhaps the releasers of such footage will have the decency to obscure the girls’ faces).
If it all plays out this way, how will Trump the Shameless pass his time in private retirement? Wouldn’t it be sweet if an enraged mob of howling magatistas ambush him on one of his own golf courses and beat him to death nice and slow with his own golf clubs? Too delicious!

Here is a video of Trump at a maganon rally where someone is holding up a far-too-small photo of Epstein and Trump. It is hard to tell which of the maganons is reacting which way. It is titled : ” Donald Trump is hiding something about Jeffrey Epstein and has been for years ”
https://www.reddit.com/r/bbby_remastered/comments/1m5k6fe/donald_trump_is_hiding_something_about_jeffrey/
It appears that Trump is personally unhappy seeing people see this. Shoving it in front of Trump’s face at every maga opportunity might get Trump to delaminate and decompensate faster.

( I just saw a reddit that clarifies that the MAGA rally where somebody raised a Trump-Epstein photo happened in 2018. If he reacted that badly then, think how much more badly he will react now if this is shoved up his nose everywhere he turns. And MAGA might not be cheering so loud this time either. Maybe the marchers at those once-a-month ” No Kings” demos could start waving ” No Pedo Presidents” signs.)

So the TrumpAdmin is moving step by step to either commute her sentence or offer her a full, free and absolute pardon. She will get to say which one she wants. She clearly knew how to build an assassination-proof forcefield around herself to begin with. Now what remains to be seen is whether Trump will want something specific from her in return for the total pardon she will probably ask for. He will probably give her an enemies list of people he wants revenge on and she will agree to say that they are all in the Epstein Files.
Will MAGA be satisfied? The MAGAnon wing of MAGA will not be satisfied. The Christianazi Satano-fascist wing of MAGA will be satisfied and in fact well pleased. Their political theology never required them to believe that Trump was sinless. It required them to believe that he is God’s Chosen Flawed Instrument of achieving the Gilead Republic of their dreams. And of Speaker Johnson’s dreams.
