Overview
- The House Oversight Committee published new materials that include the previously missing 11:59 p.m.–12:00 a.m. segment outside Jeffrey Epstein’s cell, contradicting Attorney General Pam Bondi’s assertion that such minutes are routinely deleted.
- The footage shows a routine midnight system rollover that split the recording into two files later combined, explaining the earlier timestamp jump.
- Nothing unusual appears in the recovered minute, which depicts staff working near the Special Housing Unit without any visible anomalies.
- The dump totaled more than 33,000 pages and added clips such as guards escorting Epstein to make a phone call earlier that evening.
- Unresolved technical issues remain as earlier DOJ/FBI video showed signs of stitching and the newly posted files lack metadata and appear downgraded, while lawmakers and survivors continue pressing for a full release of records.
