NEW YORK -- Jeffrey Epstein's longtime confidante Ghislaine Maxwell was transferred Monday to New York to face charges that she recruited women and girls, one as young as 14, for him to sexually abuse, the Bureau of Prisons confirmed.
Prosecutors have asked a judge to schedule a Friday court appearance in Manhattan federal court for for Maxwell, 58, who was arrested last week at a $1 million estate she had purchased in New Hampshire.
Maxwell, the daughter of British publishing magnate Robert Maxwell, was the former girlfriend and longtime close associate of Epstein, who killed himself in a Manhattan jail last August while he awaited trial on federal sex trafficking charges.
Maxwell has been indicted on multiple charges, including that she conspired to entice girls as young as 14 to engage in illegal sex acts with Epstein from 1994 through 1997.
Several of Epstein's victims have described Maxwell as his chief enabler, recruiting and grooming young girls for abuse. She has denied wrongdoing and called claims against her "absolute rubbish."
In a letter to a judge Sunday, prosecutors said they have communicated with Maxwell's defense lawyer, Christian Everdell, who would like a Friday bail hearing where she will be arraigned.
Prosecutors have said Maxwell "poses an extreme risk of flight." Maxwell has three passports, is wealthy with lots of international connections, and has "absolutely no reason to stay in the United States and face the possibility of a lengthy prison sentence," they wrote in a memo.
She is currently being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.
At least she’ll be comfortable..................
They have an open cell... The one her buddy occupied.
Yeah, I'll second that. :/
It’s like no one here has faith in Barr keeping a material witness alive.
Ghislaine Maxwell did not kill herself.
Prosecutors have said Maxwell “poses an extreme risk of flight.”
**********
The prosecutors should be more worried about her extreme risk inside the jail.
The BBC seems to believe she will succumb to COVID about mid-month.
Fox News had a story on Sunday alleging that she was a child rapist too as part of the Epstein operation.
Are they getting us to accept the notion that Ghislaine Maxwell deserves to die?
After what happened to her boss I would do it.
dead man switch
Her cell has been prepped with CV-19.
A little over 30 days if memory serves, so she might see August, but not September.
Is this the Ghislaine Maxwell Death Pool thread? I say she “commits suicide” about 14 hours from now...
Antifa will be ordered to attack her transport vehicle and burn it.
One step closer to her suicide.
what is the likelihood that Ghislaine Maxwell
has sister married to FauXi?
0.00000000000000%
That’s my point... she didn’t spend the last few months hiding behind the curtains, I am guessing.
She had plenty of time to destroy what she could find.
Just like hilLIARy disappeared for 6 weeks and then all her emails turned up missing AND they handed over 30,000 PRINTED PAGES of emails (instead of electronic copies, would contain the metadata)
I calculated that a normal laser printer would have had to be running for something like 4 weeks day and night to print that many pages.
