Summary
This legal document is a renewed motion for bond on behalf of appellant Ghislaine Maxwell, dated May 17, 2021. The motion argues against the harsh conditions of her confinement, specifically citing sleep deprivation caused by flashlight checks every 15 minutes for over 318 days. The document refutes the government's justifications for these measures—such as suicide risk or the high-profile nature of the case—as nonsensical and abusive.

Appellant Ghislaine Maxwell’s Renewed Motion for Bond
Although this Court denied Ghislaine Maxwell’s motion for bond (see Ex. A, Order, April 27, 2021), it appeared concerned with the conditions of her confinement during oral argument and instructed Ms. Maxwell that “[t]o the extent Appellant seeks relief specific to her sleeping conditions, such request should be addressed to the District Court.” (Id.).
Ms. Maxwell did just that, explaining again to the trial judge the grueling conditions of her confinement, which includes shining a flashlight in Ms. Maxwell’s eyes every 15 minutes, over the past 318 days in solitary confinement, even though she is not suicidal and even though no other inmate suffers such abuse. Ex. C, Doc. 256. The government responded, Ex. D, and although it previously intimated that Ms. Maxwell might be suicidal (she’s not), it now said that the sleep deprivation was justified because she is housed alone, because of the nature of the charges, and because the case is high-profile. Not one of these reasons makes any sense upon any examination. The government did not provide an affidavit from anyone at the jail or explain why depriving Ms. Maxwell
