Attorney General Pam Bondi said Tuesday that she was unaware of whether the late convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein was an intelligence asset — while downplaying a missing minute of prison surveillance footage from the night of his death in 2019. Bondi released the jailhouse footage Monday along with a two-page memo asserting that Epstein died by suicide and kept no “client list” — despite her prior remarks indicating she had such a list “on my desk.”
Attorney General Pam Bondi on Tuesday sought to tamp down outrage on the right over the Justice Department’s recent memo on disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein. The Justice Department and FBI released a roughly 11-hour video Monday recorded outside Epstein’s prison cell door to dispel claims Epstein did not die by suicide. Some on the far right have seized on time stamps in the video, which skip from 11:58 p.m. to midnight.
