THE final footage of Jeffrey Epstein alive has finally been released six years after the paedo was found dead.
The financier was in prison as he waited for a major trial over sex-trafficking charges after decades of sick activity with minors.

Around 11 hours of new CCTV footage reveals life inside the Metropolitan Correctional Centre in New York City on August 9 and 10 in 2019.
The looming threat of an FBI probe into Prince Andrew has also been dropped, with a Justice Department (DoJ) memo accompanying the footage saying no new people in the case would be charged.
CCTV from inside the prison shows a grey-haired Epstein handcuffed in an orange jump suit being led to his cell by a guard at about 7.49pm.
The pair move down a small flight of stairs on the left of the frame and walk to the right across the common area as they head to the cell.
CCTV footage doesn’t show Epstein’s cell door but it would capture anyone walking to it, the DoJ said.
Other than the guard leaving, no one walks across the common area towards Epstein’s cell or away from it.
At approximately 10.39pm, a guard appeared to walk in the direction of Epstein’s cell and then reappeared within view of the camera at 10.41pm.
This is believed to be the last time anyone entered the area of Epstein’s cell before the next morning.
Guards can be seen walking around the common area at around 6.30am on the 10th as they deliver breakfast.
At approximately 6.33am, more guards enter the common area and walk towards the area of Epstein’s cell – presumably after he was found dead in his cell.
The disgraced financier was found hanged in jail on the 10th, but speculation has been rife that others were involved.
FBI deputy director Dan Bongino pledged to release the footage after it had been a Donald Trump campaign promise.
Bongino wants to end all debate by releasing proof that no one entered or left the cell before the suicide.
The FBI has now concluded Epstein died by suicide and that he had no “client list” used to blackmail powerful figures, Axios reports.
Investigators found “no credible evidence … that Epstein blackmailed prominent individuals” and no “evidence that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties”.
The FBI has altered the footage – “increasing its contrast, balancing the color, and improving its sharpness for greater clarity and viewability,” a memo says.
Bongino said the footage will prove the official police records to be correct.
He previously described it back in May as “clear as day” when he announced the DoJ would release the footage.

Bongino said: “There’s just nobody there. So I say to people, if you have a tip, let us know.
“But there’s no DNA, there’s no audio, there’s no fingerprints, there’s no suspects, there’s no accomplices, there’s no tips. There is nothing.”
The video also supports a medical examiner’s findings that Epstein died by suicide.
Esptein pal Ghislaine Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year sentence for child sex trafficking and related offences.
She’ll now be the only Epstein associate to face prison as the FBI said no more people would be charged.
Prince Andrew, 64, paid millions to Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre in an out-of-court settlement three years ago, while denying sexual assault accusations.
He stayed at Epstein’s New York home, and was accused of taking part in an “underage orgy” on Epstein’s Caribbean island.
In 2020, the FBI asked the Home Office for help to quiz Andrew but that investigation was paused last year.
Attorney general Pam Bondi released hundreds of pages of information connected to Epstein in March, promising it would disclose “a lot of names” and flight logs that would “make you sick”.
But the much-awaited release of flight logs and more was overhyped by Bondi and fell flat.
Elon Musk has also accused Trump of being in the files after the pair’s relationship broke apart.
Musk provided no evidence and later deleted the post saying he went “too far”.

Epstein’s cell following his death
Depraved Epstein was found unresponsive by guards in his cell who quickly performed CPR before he was taken to hospital.
He was pronounced dead shortly after with it ruled as suicide by hanging – which was later challenged by his own lawyers.
The jail had been told Epstein should have a cellmate, and that a guard must check on him every 30 minutes.
But on the night he died, his cellmate was transferred and not replaced and he was not checked on as often as required.
Two guards fell asleep at their desks – and later falsified their records.
Meanwhile, two cameras in front of Epstein’s cell malfunctioned that night – while another’s footage was “unusable”.
Protocol was also broken by removing Epstein’s body from his cell and failing to photograph it as it was found.
The Bureau of Prisons mandates that suicide scenes be treated with the “same level of protection as any crime scene in which a death has occurred”.
Epstein’s death came just two weeks after another apparent suicide attempt when he was found unconscious with a bedsheet twisted round his bruised neck.
