Viral Florida ‘Epstein’ Video Debunked as Lookalike, Not Evidence He Is Alive

Overview

• The clip, recorded in southern Florida and posted on March 13 by Andrew Posey, drew millions of views on TikTok and was widely reposted.
• O Globo’s review using Hive Moderation found the footage was unlikely to be AI‑generated or a deepfake, but the driver remains unidentified.
• Authorities have released no credible evidence that Epstein is alive, and the DOJ and FBI concluded in 2019 that he died by suicide in federal custody.
• A separate video that recently claimed to show Epstein in Tel Aviv was identified as AI‑generated using SynthID, which flagged content created with Google’s Gemini.
• Renewed attention to the case follows recent DOJ document releases detailing Epstein’s contacts with prominent figures, alongside resurfaced victim accounts and claims he targeted adults made to look underage after his 2008 conviction.
