Your Honor:
This statement is provided in support of Ghislaine Maxwell's renewed application for bail and by way of character reference.
[Redacted Block]
I have clear memories of Ghislaine since I was 6 years old. I cared for her very much and she always showed me so much love, kindness and compassion. [Redacted] I remember calling her and asking if I could live with her. Although that did not happen, she subsequently invited me to stay with her in New York.
Whenever I needed Ghislaine she was always there for me and I felt that she was supportive of my dreams and ambitions to be an independent and creative person. She was charismatic, charming, intelligent, generous and kind. I held her on a pedestal when I was growing up. I was always so inspired by how she went out on her own to America to start a new life and she did it with style and courage but also with determination and integrity. In 2009 she again invited again to stay with her as an Intern. I wanted to quit university in UK and she wanted to show me how important it was to become an expert in something. She introduced me to her set in New York and I realised If I wanted to fulfil my potential, I had to specialise in an area to become truly expert. She was then devoting herself to her Oceans charity [Redacted]
[Redacted Block] Ghislaine has always visited Europe sporadically but America has been her home since I can remember. With everything that has happened with Jeffrey in the press and Ghislaine being dragged into the coverage every time, she simply sought a quiet life [Redacted] in the States. [Redacted]
Ghislaine was one of the original 'it' girls in London back in the day. Perhaps because of that 'tag' the media followed her activities for many years and on the back of the Epstein connection have now written defamatory and appalling statements about her quality of character. What the Press has written about her with no personal knowledge of her could not be further from the truth. Throughout my life she has shown nothing but integrity. She loves her family and is a committed and loyal person with morals that are unwavering.
My parents entrusted Ghislaine with me when I was aged 12, 15 and 19, all key points during my adolescence. Because of her I have known more of the world, have had my imagination ignited and expanded in ways I could not have imagined and that has had a profound and positive
