Summary
This legal document details Judge Nathan's reasons for denying Ghislaine Maxwell's previous bail requests, citing her significant wealth as a flight risk and her "extraordinary capacity to evade detection." The judge was also unpersuaded by arguments that Maxwell's confinement conditions were overly onerous. The document concludes by noting that on February 23, 2021, Maxwell filed a third bail application, proposing to renounce her French and British citizenship as a new condition.

Judge Nathan also rejected Maxwell’s proposed conditions of release to a relative’s custody and private security guards, reiterating her concern regarding Maxwell’s “extraordinary capacity to evade detection.” (Id. at 18-19).
22. Finally, Judge Nathan was “unpersuaded” by Maxwell’s argument “that the conditions of her confinement are uniquely onerous, interfere with her ability to participate in her defense, and thus justify release.” (Id. at 20). Maxwell did not “meaningfully dispute” that she has received more time than other inmates at the Metropolitan Detention Center (“MDC”) to review discovery and as much, if not more, time to communicate with her lawyers. (Id.). Judge Nathan reiterated that she would continue to ensure that Maxwell is able to speak and meet regularly with her attorneys and review discovery to prepare her defense. (Id. at 20 n.3).
