Fake Video Purporting to Show Jeffrey Epstein’s Final Hours Briefly Circulates Online

A 12-second computer-generated video falsely depicting Epstein's suicide attempt was briefly included in DOJ files and later removed after identification as fake imagery.

  • A 12-second clip time-stamped Aug. 10, 2019 purports to show Jeffrey Epstein in his MCC New York cell, but DOJ documents confirm the file was modified and not from the Department of Justice.
  • Last Friday the Department of Justice posted an initial tranche of photos, documents, audio, and video files online under the Epstein Files Transparency Act, which requires all unclassified records related to Epstein to be published.
  • Forensic reviewers identified the clip as a two-segment composite that cuts out nearly three minutes and noted the door does not match Epstein’s cell photos.
