This page from a government filing (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN, U.S. v. Ghislaine Maxwell) argues that the defendant poses a flight risk because French law strictly prohibits the extradition of French nationals. The prosecution refutes the defense expert's claim that there is no precedent for this by citing the 2006 case of Hans Peterson, a dual US-French citizen who committed murder in the US but could not be extradited from French territory (Guadeloupe) despite US efforts.
