Former Maximum Security guard does an AMA on Reddit in regards to Epstein's death. [View all]

One of the questions - What is the number one B/S thing about what happened?
A: The cameras. In any normal situation, if Jeffrey Epstein entered your facility, every OIC would have done redundant systems checks to make sure everything was working the way it's supposed to. The amount of focus and effort that would have went into making sure it was done right with him should have exceeded anything that resembles normal. That's basic human self-preservation.

They don't buy those cameras at Walmart. They are sturdy, resistant cameras with backup power that are designed to always be on. When a camera goes down it is considered emergency maintenance. Typically there would be people on the way to fix something like that immediately.
