Do not accept half-truths and evasive answers. Release the Epstein files.

To: Rep. McGuire, Sen. Kaine, Sen. Warner

From: A constituent in Charlottesville, VA

July 31

In a written memo and public statements, Bondi claimed that the DOJ released the entire “raw footage” of the surveillance of Epstein’s jail cell on the night he allegedly committed suicide. The videotape released by the FBI and DOJ contained a one-minute gap (at least), which Bondi claimed was an artifact of the antiquated videotaping system. She said that all tapes of the area surrounding Epstein’s jail cell had a similar short gap each evening. A government source familiar with the investigation says the FBI, the Bureau of Prisons and the Department of Justice inspector general are all in possession of a copy of the video that does not cut from just before 11:59 p.m. to midnight on the night Epstein died by suicide in his cell. Experts in surveillance video, including video forensic professionals, have gone on the record to say that a nightly reset would have been unusual and was not something they encountered in most video systems. We should not allege cover-ups and conspiracies simply because we do not have all of the relevant facts. But these reports gives rise to a strong inference that Pam Bondi, Kash Patel, the DOJ, and the FBI are lying to the American people. Our elected officials (that’s you!) must not accept half-truths and evasive answers. Release the Epstein files.
