Accused sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell was denied bail by a New York judge for the third time on Monday.
The British socialite denies charges that she recruited underage girls for her former partner, the disgraced US financier Jeffrey Epstein, who killed himself in jail in 2019.
She was denied bail in July and then again in December and remains in prison in Brooklyn awaiting a trial due to start this summer.
As part of her third bail attempt, Maxwell had offered to give up her British and French passports but Manhattan federal court judge Alison Nathan ruled she was still a flight risk.
Nathan said there were “no combination of conditions that can reasonably assure her appearance” if Maxwell was released.
