DOJ-OGR-00001199.jpg

This document is a page from a defense filing (Reply Memorandum) dated December 28, 2020, arguing for Ghislaine Maxwell's release on bail.

Additionally, the filing argues that a COVID-19 surge at the MDC and potential suspension of legal communications threaten Maxwell's health and constitutional rights.

This legal document is a filing on behalf of Ms. Maxwell requesting release on bail. It argues against the government's assertion that she is a flight risk, citing her proposed bail package and extradition waivers, and claims the government's standard is impossibly high.

DOJ-OGR-00020117.jpg

This document is page 14 of a defense motion filed on December 23, 2020, arguing for Ghislaine Maxwell's release on bail. The defense argues that flight risk concerns regarding the UK and France are overstated and that the recent arrest of associate Jean-Luc Brunel in France diminishes her incentive to flee there. Additionally, the motion highlights a COVID-19 surge at the MDC (113 cases) and restrictive prison conditions, including mouth inspections and potential suspension of legal calls, as further justification for bail.

DOJ-OGR-00020102.jpg

This document is a legal memorandum signed by Philippe Jaeglé of the French Office for the International Mutual Assistance in Criminal Matters. It explicitly clarifies that under the 1996 Bilateral Extradition Treaty and French law, France 'systematically refuses' to extradite its own nationals to the United States, noting this is a principle deviated from only within the European Union. This document is significant in the context of the Epstein case as it outlines the legal barrier that prevented the US from extraditing French associates like Jean-Luc Brunel.
