Forensic experts are questioning the US government's account of what happened on the last night of Jeffrey Epstein's life, after a new review of CCTV footage uncovered a mystery orange shape spotted near his prison cell hours before he died.
Nearly 11 hours of video from outside the cell at the Metropolitan Correctional Centre in New York was finally released this month - six years after the paedophile financier was found dead.
Coroners at the time ruled that Epstein had committed suicide by hanging after he was found unresponsive in his jail cell on August 10, 2019, just hours after the footage was taken.
But a new analysis carried out by CBS News has raised questions over whether this assessment was correct.
In the 11-hour clip, which is already facing accusations of being doctored, a shadowy, orange object could be seen moving up the stairs to Epstein's cell block at the New York prison at around 10:40pm the night before he was found dead.
