    Cameras were broken for an extended period of time

    Recorded video evidence for August 9 and 10 for the SHU area where Epstein was housed was only available from one prison security camera due to a malfunction of MCC New York’s Digital Video Recorder system that occurred on July 29, 2019. While the prison’s cameras continued to provide live video feeds, recordings were made for only about half the cameras. MCC New York personnel discovered this failure on August 8, 2019, but it was not repaired until after Epstein’s death. As detailed in this report, like many other BOP facilities, MCC New York had a history of security camera problems. ~DOJ Report

    Its not like the cameras were working until he was put there, then started working afterward (despite what people may tell you). There were known, ongoing camera problems for the whole facility…

    Just shows the typical incompetence in American prisons.
