Federal prosecutors said Thursday that surveillance video of Jeffrey Epstein’s first apparent suicide attempt was deleted.
Footage of outside Epstein’s cell on July 23, when he was found semiconscious at about 1:27 a.m., was inadvertently deleted after the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) saved the video from another floor of the facility, prosecutors said in a court filing obtained by NBC News.
The center "inadvertently preserved video from the wrong tier within the MCC and as a result, video from outside the defendant’s cell on July 22-23, 2019 no longer exists,” the court filing reads.
The FBI reportedly discovered the error after reviewing the footage provided to the bureau.
"After reviewing the video, it appeared to the government that the footage contained on the preserved video was for the correct date and time, but captured a different tier...because the preserved video did not show corrections officers responding to any of the cells seen on the video,” prosecutors said in the filing, according to NBC News.
