The Jeffrey Epstein case has been a lightning rod for conspiracy theories since the disgraced financier’s death in 2019.
But now there’s actual evidence that something stinks about the whole thing.
And one forensic expert utterly destroyed the FBI’s Jeffrey Epstein cover-up with this shocking discovery.
Digital forensics expert exposes massive problems with Epstein jail footage
The American people have been told to shut up and accept that Jeffrey Epstein killed himself in his Manhattan jail cell.
But a digital forensics expert just blew that narrative to smithereens.
Digital forensics expert Jake Green appeared on NewsNation and laid out exactly why the official story doesn’t add up.
"There are so many issues with this video, the minutes missing, the jumps, we can sometimes see a cursor move in the top right corner," Green told host Ashleigh Banfield.¹
Green didn’t mince words about what he found when he analyzed the footage.
"There are so many pieces wrong with this video, & for the DOJ to release it, it’s strange, and it’s kind of unnerving to know that this is the way they want to do this," he stated.¹
The Department of Justice released video from the Manhattan jail that supposedly shows the area around Epstein’s cell on the night he died.
But there’s a convenient 62-second gap in 11 hours of footage.
Attorney General Pam Bondi claimed the gap was just the system resetting around midnight each day.
But Green’s analysis suggests there’s much more to the story.
Wired reported that the metadata reveals nearly three minutes of footage is missing and the video was created from two separate files.²
That’s not how legitimate evidence works.
Expert says DOJ video violates basic forensic standards
Green didn’t just identify problems – he explained why they matter.
"What we’re seeing now, we can say rather definitively that this is not within the realm of digital forensics best practices," Green stated.¹
Think about that for a moment.
The Department of Justice – the agency that’s supposed to uphold the law – released video evidence that doesn’t meet basic professional standards.
Either they’re incompetent or they’re covering something up.
Neither option inspires confidence.
The timing of these revelations couldn’t be worse for the deep state.
A DOJ memo obtained by Axios stated that Epstein committed suicide and that no "client list" existed.³
But how can anyone trust that conclusion when the video evidence has been tampered with?
Former inmate Michael Franzese, who was imprisoned in the same cell where Epstein died, appeared on NewsNation Monday and said there’s "just no way" for someone to take their own life in that cell.⁴
A coroner hired by Epstein’s brother found injuries that were inconsistent with suicide.
The two guards who were supposedly watching Epstein – Tova Noel and Michael Thomas – allegedly fell asleep and falsified records.
Charges against them were dismissed in 2021 after they completed terms outlined in a non-prosecution agreement with the DOJ.
Trump supporters demand answers about Epstein files
President Donald Trump has faced criticism from some of his own supporters over the handling of the Epstein files.
Trump was even "ratioed" on Truth Social over the matter, according to Newsweek.⁵
But Trump fired back at his critics in a scathing Truth Social post.
"Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this ‘bullshit,’ hook, line, and sinker," Trump wrote. "They haven’t learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years."⁶
Trump also defended Bondi in a lengthy statement posted on Truth Social.
The President’s frustration is understandable.
He’s been fighting the deep state for years, and now some of his own supporters are buying into their latest disinformation campaign.
FBI Director Kash Patel told Republican Senator John Kennedy of Louisiana during a May hearing that after reviewing evidence, he believed Epstein "hung himself in a cell in the Metropolitan Detention Center."⁷
Patel also said when asked about the delay in releasing the Epstein files: "Senator… we are, we’ve been working on that and we are doing it in a way that protects victims and also doesn’t put out into the ether information that is irrelevant for production for the public, such as CSAM [child sexual abuse material]."⁷
Patel repeated his belief that Epstein committed suicide later in May during an interview with Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo, during which FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino agreed with Patel’s assessment. "He killed himself," Bongino told Bartiromo. "Again, you want me to—I’ve seen the whole file. He killed himself."⁷
Epstein’s powerful connections raise more questions
The reason people don’t trust the official story isn’t just the sketchy video evidence.
It’s because Epstein had connections to some of the most powerful people in the world.
He had ties to celebrities, politicians, and business executives even after his 2008 guilty plea to sex charges.
Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates met with Epstein multiple times, including as late as 2019 – despite concerns his then-wife Melinda expressed.⁸
Prince Andrew, director Woody Allen, and L Brands founder Lex Wexner all had connections to the disgraced financier.
These weren’t casual acquaintances.
Gates Foundation employees also met with Epstein on multiple occasions.
When you have that many powerful people potentially compromised, it creates a massive incentive to cover things up.
The forensic expert’s findings just confirm what many Americans already suspected.
The official story about Jeffrey Epstein doesn’t add up.
And the video evidence that’s supposed to support the suicide narrative has been tampered with in ways that violate basic professional standards.
The American people deserve the truth about what happened to Jeffrey Epstein.
But the deep state seems determined to keep that truth buried.
