This document is a page from a legal filing (Case 21-770) dated April 1, 2021, outlining legal issues presented for review regarding Ghislaine Maxwell. It argues that her detention conditions—including sleep deprivation, surveillance, solitary confinement, lack of food/water, and inability to review discovery documents—prevent her from effectively preparing a defense. It also challenges the trial court's decision to deny bail based on 'old, anonymous, unconfronted, hearsay accusations' from the government.
