In 2019, footage allegedly capturing Jeffrey Epstein’s first suicide attempt in his New York jail cell (between July 22–23) was reportedly lost or destroyed. Prosecutors later admitted that the Metropolitan Correctional Center (MCC) “inadvertently preserved video from the wrong tier,” meaning the camera recordings outside the correct cell were never retained.  According to filings, a backup system intended to archive all Special Housing Unit video failed due to “technical errors,” and the preserved recordings showed a different section than requested, such that no footage from the immediate area outside Epstein’s cell exists


The disappearance of that footage fueled intense speculation and conspiracy theories about what really happened to Epstein in jail. The loss raised questions about institutional competence and potential suppression of evidence, especially given the high-stakes nature of his case and the scrutiny it attracted.
