There was no "missing minute" in the original Epstein jail video, government source says
FBI officials promised raw, unaltered video to quell speculation about Epstein's suicide.
I think people are misinterpreting this wonky headline. The bombshell story CBS is reporting is that the Epstein jail tape the public got IS missing time and the FULL video exists. The FBI and DOJ have it. So when Bondi said the missing minute is normal, she lied. www.cbsnews.com/news/jeffrey...

Asked if any of the workers Epstein took were young women: "Well, I don't want to say, but everyone knows the people that were taken .... And the answer is yes, they were. In the spa. Yeah, people that work in the spa."
Asked if one of those employees was Virginia Giuffre: "I don't know. I think she worked at the spa. I think so. I think that was one of the people. Yeah, he stole her."
worth noting she was 15 at the time. the fuck is a girl that young doing working in a spa? and why was he so mad she left?
even his lame ass cover story is damning as hell.
