Items are packaged separately to prevent cross-contamination - in breathable paper bags for biological evidence or airtight containers for digital media. Seals use tamper-evident tape that shows if opened. Labels include chain-of-custody forms listing all handlers.
Every transfer (e.g, from field agent to lab, or between units) requires a signed log on the chain-of-custody form, noting the handler's name, date, time, purpose, and condition of the evidence. 
Evidence is stored in secure facilities under controlled conditions - refrigerated for perishables, dark and cool for digital media to prevent degradation. Access is limited to authorized personnel, with audits and inventories conducted regularly. 
Shipping uses trackable methods like registered mail or couriers, complying with regulations for hazardous or sensitive items.
During lab analysis, each step is logged. If evidence is returned or destroyed post-case, this is documented with approvals. Breaks in the chain trigger internal investigations, as they could indicate negligence or misconduct.
This system creates multiple redundancies: physical seals, digital logs, audits, and legal accountability. 
In the context of Epstein's investigations, the FBI raided his properties and seized vast amounts of evidence, including hard drives, CDs, videos, documents, and other media potentially containing "blackmail" videos or client lists. 
Official reviews, including a 2025 DOJ-FBI memo, confirm the seizure of over 300 gigabytes of data, including victim images/videos and over 10,000 downloaded child sexual abuse materials (CSAM) and pornography. 
The FBI's chain-of-custody protocols make accidental loss virtually impossible without deliberate interference. 
Every item would be logged at collection (e.g, during the 2019 NY raid, agents photographed contents of a safe containing hard drives, CDs labeled "Young [Name] + [Name]" or "Girl pics nude," diamonds, cash, and passports). 
Transfers require signed forms, and digital evidence is cataloged in secure databases. 
Losing an item would leave a glaring gap in records, triggering automatic audits or alerts. 
Evidence is stored in locked, monitored facilities with limited access. For digital items like videos, backups and encryption are standard. 
Accidental loss (e.g, misplacement) is improbable due to inventories and surveillance. If "lost," it would imply someone with access intentionally removed or deleted it - e.g, a 2025 whistleblower alleged FBI agents systematically deleted Epstein-linked files, and a 2021 court hearing revealed safe contents temporarily "went missing" after the raid.
High-profile evidence like Epstein's undergoes extra scrutiny, with DOJ oversight and potential Inspector General reviews. 
The FBI's protocols create a near-impenetrable system where "loss" demands active subversion - such as falsifying logs, breaking seals, or deleting data - implying corruption or cover-up rather than oversight. 
So what happenend to the mountain of evidence?

Eric Schmitt @Eric_Schmitt - President Trump’s first four District Court Judges will be in Missouri’s Eastern District. Their confirmation votes kick off today.
They all worked for me at one time or another when I was Attorney General. I know them all well. Great picks. Huge win for Missouri and for America
