appear to depend on any job – or to have depended on any employment in the past 30 years – for
the privileged lifestyle she has maintained for the entirety of that period. The defendant clearly
has the means to flee.
More troubling still, the defendant’s conduct at the time of her arrest further underscores
the risk of flight she poses. When FBI agents arrived at the defendant’s remote property in New
Hampshire on the morning of July 2, 2020, they discovered the property was barred by a locked
gate. After breaching the gate, the agents observed an individual who was later determined to be
a private security guard. As the agents approached the front door to the main house, they
announced themselves as FBI agents and directed the defendant to open the door. Through a
window, the agents saw the defendant ignore the direction to open the door and, instead, try to flee
to another room in the house, quickly shutting a door behind her. Agents were ultimately forced
to breach the door in order to enter the house to arrest the defendant, who was found in an interior
room in the house. Moreover, as the agents conducted a security sweep of the house, they also
noticed a cell phone wrapped in tin foil on top of a desk, a seemingly misguided effort to evade
detection, not by the press or public, which of course would have no ability to trace her phone or
intercept her communications, but by law enforcement.
Following the defendant’s arrest, the FBI spoke with the security guard, who informed the
agents that the defendant’s brother had hired a security company staffed with former members of
the British military to guard the defendant at the New Hampshire property, in rotations. The
defendant provided one of the guards with a credit card in the same name as the LLC that had
purchased the New Hampshire property in cash. The guard informed the FBI that the defendant
had not left the property during his time working there, and that instead, the guard was sent to
