Read this more closely. The reporting here is that the “missing minute(s)” exist, and that what was published publicly was not the “raw footage,” but rather a screen capture of footage.

So when they said they released raw footage, they lied. When they said stuff about some “nightly reset,” they lied.

Headline bad.

CBS News has learned

The same CBS News that just got a merger approved by Trump personally?

Hey CBS didn't you just pay the president a ton of money to appease him...?

CBS News? You mean the network that decided to bend the knee? Not sure I trust this source any longer

Newly uncovered metadata reveals that nearly three minutes of footage were cut from what the US Department of Justice and Federal Bureau of Investigation described as “full raw” surveillance video from the only functioning camera near Jeffrey Epstein’s prison cell the night before he was found dead.

...

WIRED’s initial analysis found that those saves took place over a 23-minute span; however, further analysis of additional metadata shows the file was actually edited and saved several times over a period of more than three and a half hours on May 23, 2025. Specifically, the file was created at 4:48 pm and last modified at 8:16 pm ET that day. The metadata also references “MJCOLE~1,” which is likely a shortened version of a longer username. While it likely begins with “MJCOLE,” the full name cannot be determined from the metadata alone.

Both analyses found that the two clips, labeled “2025-05-22 16-35-21.mp4” and “2025-05-22 21-12-48.mp4,” were stitched together. The first clip is 4 hours, 19 minutes, and 16 seconds long, but only the first 4 hours, 16 minutes, and 23.368 seconds appears in the published version, meaning nearly 2 minutes and 53 seconds were cut from the end. According to the metadata, the cut occurs just at 11:58:58 pm. The cut is milliseconds before the one-minute recording gap that Bondi said was caused by a quirk of the surveillance system. The second clip, “2025-05-22 21-12-48.mp4,” picks up immediately afterward, continuing the footage from 12:00:00 am until 6:40:00 am

Prior reporting by Wired quoted Hany Farid, an expert in analysis of digital images and the detection of manipulated media.

“If a lawyer brought me this file and asked if it was suitable for court, I’d say no. Go back to the source. Do it right,” Farid says. “Do a direct export from the original system—no monkey business.”

Farid points to another anomaly: The video’s aspect ratio shifts noticeably at several points. “Why am I suddenly seeing a different aspect ratio?” he asks.

Farid cautions that while the metadata clearly shows the video was modified, the changes could be benign—for example, converting footage from a proprietary surveillance format to a standard MP4.

Another expert put it succinctly:

One media forensics expert, who reviewed the metadata and agreed with WIRED’s analysis but requested anonymity due to privacy concerns and a desire to avoid having their name publicly associated with anything related to the Epstein case, put it bluntly: “It looks suspicious—but not as suspicious as the DOJ refusing to answer basic questions about it.”

Sorry CBS, y'all have no more credibility. You torched your journalistic integrity and no one should look to you for the truth anymore.

Last I remember the total count was 3 minutes

CBS is compromised after paying their 16 million bribe

so the whole "its an old system that resets every night so you always lose a minute at that time" thing was as obvious a lie as it seemed when she said it.

You can trust everything the government says just ask any Native American.

"It may not be good for America, but it's damn good for CBS,"

"The money's rolling in and this is fun . . . I've never seen anything like this, and this going to be a very good year for us. Sorry. It's a terrible thing to say. But, bring it on, Donald. Keep going.”

3 minutes

Then show us the missing footage?

We've always been at war with East Asia.

"Who you gonna believe? Me, or your lyting eyes?"

But I was told all jails have one minute of missing video. ?🫤?

The COWARD network reported this?

We have always been at war with Eastasia

CBS is State Media now

So then release that actual, real, unedited version to shut us up about it.

Oh, you won't?

You can't trust CBS. They are anti free speech

There are five lights.

The quality of CBS's reporting is far, far lower than the bribe they paid to Trump (in addition to firing Stephen Colbert) to have his FCC approve their merger. Also, it was 3 minutes, not 1.

"Don't look behind the curtain. There is no man behind the curtain!"

We investigated ourselves and found no wrong doing.

CBS: We're in on it!

Missing minute does not mean it does not exist just that its not shown.

So they have the one minute footage where trump walks in and gives him the terms for a pardon?

Even if there were a missing minute, or three, here's the problem:

For the conspiracy theory to work, somone would have had to have snuck in, murdered Epstein, and snuck out, without appearing on video on either side of that 1-3 minute window.

I really just don't see how that's possible. Obviously it depends on how much "real estate" is covered in the video, if we're talking a 20 foot hallway or something, there's no way someone is doing that without getting caught on the recording either going in or coming out.

OR there's more than 1-3 minutes missing... Or the whole thing is faked.
