What Are They Hiding?

We all know that they haven't release the Epstein Files have not been released even though Trump said he would. Well now it turns out that the raw video that the FBI released of the monitors in Epstein's cell was altered! Fox News reported,

Jeffrey Epstein prison video had nearly 3 minutes cut from it: report

The Brief

• Nearly three minutes of footage were cut from the DOJ’s "raw" video of Epstein’s cell, metadata analysis shows.
• The video appears to be stitched together from multiple clips using Adobe Premiere Pro.
• The DOJ had previously said the 11-hour video was unedited.

Newly uncovered data reveals that nearly three minutes were cut from the surveillance footage outside Jeffrey Epstein’s cell—despite prior claims that the video was "raw" and unedited.

Digital forensics experts discovered the clip released by the Department of Justice was actually made from at least two separate video segments stitched together using Adobe Premiere Pro. That finding raises fresh concerns about transparency, particularly because the video was released by the Trump administration last week to help dispel conspiracy theories surrounding Epstein’s death.

The discrepancy was first reported by WIRED, which worked with metadata specialists to analyze the file. The analysis showed that one of the original source clips used to create the final video was 2 minutes and 53 seconds longer than what the DOJ ultimately released.

#1 They must be really dumb to not think that the video would be gone over with a fine tooth comb.

#2 Editing the video when they said it was the RAW uncut video... stupid!

#3 You know that now we know it altered they are going to be thinking... conspiracy theories will be running rampant.

Wired reported that,

Working with two independent video forensics experts, WIRED examined the 21-gigabyte files released by the DOJ. Using a metadata tool, reporters analyzed both Exchangeable Image File Format (EXIF) and Extensible Metadata Platform (XMP) data to identify signs of postprocessing.

The “raw” file shows clear signs of having been processed using an Adobe product, most likely Premiere, based on metadata that specifically references file extensions used by the video editing software. According to experts, Adobe software, including Premiere and Photoshop, leaves traces in exported files, often embedding metadata that logs which assets were used and what actions were taken during editing. In this case, the metadata indicates the file was saved at least four times over a period of several hours on May 23, 2025, by a Windows user account called “MJCOLE~1.” The metadata does not show whether the footage was modified before each time it was saved.

The embedded data suggest the video is not a continuous, unaltered export from a surveillance system, but a composite assembled from at least two separate MP4 files. The metadata includes references to Premiere project files and two specific source clips—2025-05-22 21-12-48.mp4 and 2025-05-22 16-35-21.mp4. These entries appear under a metadata section labeled “Ingredients,” part of Adobe’s internal schema for tracking source material used in edited exports. The metadata does not make clear where in the video the two clips were spliced together.

Farid says the metadata raises immediate concerns about chain of custody—the documented handling of digital evidence from collection to presentation in a courtroom. Just like physical evidence, he explains, digital evidence must be handled in a way that preserves its integrity; metadata, while not always precise, can provide important clues about whether that integrity has been compromised.

Farid points to another anomaly: The video’s aspect ratio shifts noticeably at several points. “Why am I suddenly seeing a different aspect ratio?” he asks.

No matter who altered the video, it still leads back to Trump & Company and makes you wonder what are they hiding?
