Summary

This document serves as a legal argument dated April 1, 2021, detailing the harsh prison conditions faced by Ghislaine Maxwell, including sleep deprivation via flashlight checks, inedible food, and undrinkable water. The defense argues that the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) is subjecting her to this unconstitutional treatment solely due to the public relations fallout surrounding the death of Jeffrey Epstein. It further notes that the charges against her stem from allegations made by anonymous accusers regarding events from 1994 to 1997.

flashlight pointed into her cell every 15 minutes. For months, her food
was microwaved with a plastic covering, which rendered it inedible
after the plastic melted into the food.² The water is often cloudy and is
not drinkable. Because of the pandemic, it is not safe to meet with her
lawyers in person, so she cannot adequately prepare for trial. She is on
suicide watch for no reason. She continues to lose weight, her hair, and
her ability to concentrate.
It is obvious that the BOP is subjecting Ms. Maxwell to this
behavior because of the death of Epstein (and subsequent fallout). But
how is this permissible? Since when are the conditions for one inmate
dictated by the fate of another? Perhaps never in the history of the U.S.
Justice System has the public relations imperatives of the government
permitted such wildly inappropriate and unconstitutional treatment of
an innocent human being. It is impossible for Ms. Maxwell to
participate effectively in the preparation of her defense under these
conditions.
The charges related to three of the anonymous accusers in the
operative indictment are 25 years old, alleging actions from 1994-1997,
________
² The prison has now promised to heat the food properly.
