    Why the fuck would there be bags of documents about a guy who was just transfered there?

      Hell, there are only “bags of documents” when dealing with luddite criminals who need to have stacks of classified material sitting in the shitter.

      Looks like Mediaite is “part of the Abrams Media Network” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mediaite and is basically clickbait.

      So I assume this is just lies. But on the off chance there is any kernel of truth to this: shredding/burning a backlog of legacy data prison records that were, hopefully, already digitized and verified.

        the source is the Miami Herald. They claim to have seen FBI documents referencing a bunch of independent reports from different parts of the prison. A guard on the gate where the dumpsters are notified the FBI that he was seeing very high volumes of shredded paper come out. An inmate tasked with trash transport told one of his guards that BOP investigators were having him transport bags of shredded documents, which he felt was counter to an investigation. There were more beyond those two.

    You don’t need much in terms of documents to pay off a couple guards, open the door and doctor a couple recordings.

    Eh, I expect most large organizations have documents that need destroyed on a regular basis. The implication is that it’s part of the Epstein coverup (which is obviously a true conspiracy) but I don’t think this is a smoking gun.
