I’ve wondered what it must have been like to be her these past months, knowing what was hanging over your head every day. You’re right, she could have gone to ground but it seems to me the harder you try to hide, the stronger the paranoia would be that you’ll be found. She probably didn’t want to end up like Saddam, in a hole somewhere so figured let’s get it over with. If she thinks she’s got enough to save her own skin by ratting out others, the negotiations are about to begin. If not, life as she’s known it is probably over, and after what happened to Epstein, how well would you sleep in the same prison, depending on the same system to keep you alive?
I suspect she is a pretty tough character, having seen and done all the things she has, but money, power, and fame don’t help you when you’re where she is right now.
SDNY wants to keep Ghislaine Maxwell in jail, in a detention memo stating she:
* traveled at least 15x internationally in the last three years, including to the UK, Japan, and Qatar.
* more than 15 bank accounts tied to her from 2016 to present, with accounts up to $20M. pic.twitter.com/PRDuKEIVFe— Adam Klasfeld (@KlasfeldReports) July 2, 2020

I think she's got more than enough to trade.
Her problem right now is staying alive.
Very true
