File Size: 3.67 MB
Summary

This document is an application for a search warrant and a supporting affidavit filed on July 1, 2020, in the United States District Court for the District of New Hampshire. It seeks to use a cell-site simulator to locate a cellular device (the 'Target Cellular Device') believed to be used by GHISLAINE MAXWELL, who is a subject of an arrest warrant for crimes including conspiracy and enticement/transportation of minors. The FBI has probable cause to believe the device is currently in New Hampshire and that its location will assist in arresting Maxwell, based on prior GPS and cell site data, AT&T records, and contact with her attorney's phone.
