Was it Suicide or Murder?

FBI Files Show Unidentified Figure Near Epstein's Cell Night of Death, Contradicting Former AG Barr's Account

An unidentified orange figure moved up the stairway toward Jeffrey Epstein's cell at 10:39 p.m. on the night before the notorious sex offender was found dead—and the FBI documented it.

That detail, buried in millions of files the Department of Justice released last Friday, contradicts public assurances from top officials who said no one entered Epstein's prison area that night.

The footage came from surveillance cameras at the Metropolitan Correctional Centre in New York. The FBI report describes what investigators saw:
A flash of orange looks to be going up the L Tier stairs – could possibly be an inmate escorted up to that Tier.

The Inspector General's final report offered a different reading of the same footage, suggesting it might have been someone carrying prison linen or bedding. But both assessments share one uncomfortable conclusion: something moved toward Epstein's cell that was never supposed to be there.

Former Attorney General Bill Barr claimed in a 2019 interview that he had personally reviewed the security footage and confirmed no one entered Epstein's prison area. That was the line. That was the reassurance offered to a public already skeptical about how a high-profile sex offender connected to the world's most powerful people could die in federal custody.

The FBI's own files now tell a different story.
