This legal document details the sentencing and subsequent appeal of a defendant named Maxwell. Judge Nathan imposed a 240-month prison sentence, citing Maxwell's direct and prolonged participation with Jeffrey Epstein in a sex trafficking scheme involving underage girls, and also sentenced her to a $750,000 fine. The document notes that on February 28, 2023, the Second Circuit court affirmed Maxwell's conviction and sentence, upholding the lower court's rulings on several key issues.

DOJ-OGR-00015136.jpg

This legal document, part of case 1:20-cr-00330-PAE, describes Ghislaine Maxwell's role in facilitating sexual abuse with Jeffrey Epstein, including recruiting vulnerable girls and paying them for "massages." It details the timeline of Maxwell's unsuccessful post-trial motions in early 2022, which were largely denied by Judge Nathan. The document concludes by noting Maxwell's sentencing hearing on June 28, 2022, where the government sought a sentence of at least 360 months.

It details testimony from four victims (Jane, Kate, Annie, Carolyn) and other evidence establishing Maxwell's instrumental role in Jeffrey Epstein's decade-long scheme to sexually abuse underage girls. The document also references post-trial motions, appeals, and the separate dismissal of perjury charges against Maxwell.

The speaker, now a psychologist, describes the long-term professional and personal fear caused by Epstein and Maxwell's threats, and urges Judge Nathan to consider the systemic and ongoing suffering of the victims when determining Maxwell's sentence.

DOJ-OGR-00014807.jpg

This document is a court transcript from a hearing on August 22, 2022, likely related to the sentencing of Ghislaine Maxwell. A speaker, Ms. Moe, argues for a harsh sentence, after which a victim, Ms. Farmer, delivers a powerful statement detailing the long-term psychological trauma, including a profound loss of self-trust, resulting from the abuse she suffered from both Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein.

DOJ-OGR-00001462.jpg

This document is page 22 of a legal filing dated May 27, 2021, arguing against Ghislaine Maxwell's renewed motion for release. The text asserts that Judge Nathan did not abuse her discretion in detaining Maxwell as a flight risk and highlights Maxwell's extensive access to discovery materials via computers (13 hours/day) and legal counsel via video calls (25 hours/week) at the MDC.

DOJ-OGR-00001461.jpg

This legal document, part of a court filing, refutes claims made by an inmate named Maxwell regarding her conditions of confinement at the MDC. It distinguishes her situation from a case involving Tiffany Days, who experienced sewage flooding at a different facility (the MCC), and argues there is no evidence of such issues at the MDC. The document also counters Maxwell's claim of being in "solitary confinement" by detailing her daily access to a day room and various amenities for thirteen hours.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001460.jpg

This page from a legal filing (Case 21-770) argues that Judge Nathan acted within her discretion regarding Ghislaine Maxwell's confinement at the MDC. It asserts that Maxwell failed to provide evidence that MDC protocols interfered with her trial preparation. The document dismisses Maxwell's complaints about conditions—specifically regarding undrinkable water, inadequate food, audio recording of legal visits, and sewage overflows—as bare assertions without evidence.

DOJ-OGR-00001459.jpg

This document is page 19 of a legal filing (Case 21-770) dated May 27, 2021, addressing Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal regarding pretrial release and confinement conditions. The text argues that Maxwell failed to prove MDC security protocols interfere with her trial preparation and addresses specific disputes regarding 'nighttime checks' with flashlights and the use of eye coverings. A lengthy footnote clarifies a previous inaccuracy regarding Maxwell's use of an eye mask and defends the Government against accusations of misrepresentation.

DOJ-OGR-00001458.jpg

This document is page 18 of a legal filing from May 27, 2021, discussing Ghislaine Maxwell's complaints regarding her detention conditions at the MDC. It details Judge Nathan's review of Maxwell's request to stop 15-minute nighttime flashlight checks (increased from the standard 30 minutes). The text argues these checks are justified due to suicide risk factors, including her isolation without a cellmate and the stress of a high-profile case.

Legal filing / court brief (case 21-770)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001457.jpg

This legal document is a court opinion denying a renewed motion for temporary release by an individual named Maxwell. The Court bases its decision on the 'law of the case' doctrine, stating that Maxwell has not provided any compelling new reasons, such as new evidence or a change in law, to warrant a reversal of its prior decision. The document dismisses Maxwell's arguments regarding a recent letter briefing and a prior order by Judge Nathan, concluding that there was no error in the original determination that Maxwell is a flight risk.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001456.jpg

This legal document, dated May 27, 2021, addresses post-conviction bail proceedings concerning 'Maxwell.' It clarifies that an Order regarding security checks at the MDC is not a bail determination and that Maxwell's 'renewed motion' for bail is substantively meritless. The document affirms Judge Nathan's prior findings that Maxwell is a risk of flight and that no bail conditions could reasonably assure her appearance in court.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001455.jpg

This document is page 15 of a legal filing (likely a government opposition brief) from May 27, 2021, regarding case 21-770. It argues that there are no grounds to overturn Judge Nathan's denial of Ghislaine Maxwell's bail, noting that MDC security protocols do not interfere with her trial preparation. It also argues that Maxwell's 'renewed motion' is procedurally improper and untimely under appellate rules.

2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001452.jpg

This document is page 12 of a legal filing (Case 21-770) dated May 27, 2021, arguing that Ghislaine Maxwell's motion should be denied. It details Judge Nathan's previous findings that MDC security protocols, such as night monitoring and eye mask prohibitions, do not interfere with Maxwell's trial preparation or legal communications. The text notes that the appellate court has already affirmed previous orders denying Maxwell bail.

Legal filing / court document (appellate brief)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001451.jpg

This page from a 2021 legal filing discusses Ghislaine Maxwell's confinement conditions at the MDC. It details her complaints regarding sleep disruption due to flashlight checks and the lack of an eye mask, noting that the MDC does not issue eye masks but allows other items to be used. The document records that Judge Nathan denied Maxwell's request to modify the monitoring schedule on May 14, 2021, stating her claims were unsupported by an affidavit.

Legal court filing / government brief
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001450.jpg

This document is page 10 of a court filing from May 27, 2021, discussing the conditions of Ghislaine Maxwell's confinement at the MDC. It details a May 5, 2021, letter from the Government to Judge Nathan explaining that Maxwell is subject to flashlight checks every 15 minutes due to an 'enhanced security schedule,' compared to every 30 minutes for SHU inmates and hourly for general population. The document asserts these checks are for safety purposes, specifically to ensure the inmate is breathing and not in distress, noting that while Maxwell is not on suicide watch, her high-profile charges warrant increased monitoring.

Court filing / legal brief
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001449.jpg

This document is page 9 of a court filing from May 27, 2021, related to Case 21-770 regarding Ghislaine Maxwell. It details the procedural history of Maxwell's failed appeals for bail/pretrial release and the court's affirmation of Judge Nathan's decisions on April 27, 2021. The text specifically highlights Maxwell's complaints regarding her conditions of confinement at the MDC, specifically '15-minute light surveillance,' and notes that the appellate court directed such specific relief requests back to the District Court.

Court filing / legal brief (appellate level)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001447.jpg

This legal document, dated May 27, 2021, details the denial of a renewed bail request by a defendant named Maxwell on December 8, 2020. Judge Nathan denied the application, concluding that Maxwell remains a significant flight risk due to her substantial international ties, multiple citizenships, financial resources, and a history of providing incomplete information to the Court and Pretrial Services. The judge found that no combination of bail conditions could reasonably assure Maxwell's appearance at trial.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001446.jpg

This page from a legal filing (Case 21-770) summarizes Judge Nathan's decision to deny Ghislaine Maxwell bail. The Judge cited Maxwell's 'substantial international ties,' 'extraordinary financial resources,' lack of US ties, and 'demonstrated sophistication' in hiding assets as reasons she poses a significant flight risk. Additionally, the Judge rejected arguments regarding the difficulty of preparing a defense while incarcerated, though mandated that the Government ensure adequate attorney-client communication.

DOJ-OGR-00001445.jpg

This page from a legal filing (Case 21-770, dated May 27, 2021) outlines the Government's argument for the detention of Ghislaine Maxwell. It references three denied bail applications and details a specific hearing on July 14, 2020, where Judge Nathan ruled Maxwell a flight risk based on strong evidence and the nature of the offenses. The document highlights that the indictment is supported by three victim-witnesses, corroborated by flight records and diaries.

Legal brief / court filing (government memorandum)
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001444.jpg

This legal document, page 4 of a court filing from May 27, 2021, outlines allegations against Maxwell for her role as a co-conspirator with Jeffrey Epstein in the sexual abuse of minors between 1994 and 1997. It details her alleged actions of identifying, enticing, and grooming victims, and notes that a Superseding Indictment expanded the charges against her, including sex trafficking conspiracy, extended the timeline of the conspiracy to 2004, and identified a fourth victim.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001443.jpg

This legal document, dated May 27, 2021, outlines the procedural history of defendant Maxwell's attempts to secure pretrial release. It details how Judge Nathan denied her bail applications on December 28, 2020, and March 22, 2021, and how the Court affirmed these denials on April 27, 2021. The document also notes that Maxwell filed another renewed motion on May 17, 2021, and that her trial is scheduled to begin on November 29, 2021.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001376.jpg

This legal document, part of Case 21-770, is a filing by the defense for a defendant named Maxwell. The defense argues that the government's indictment and additional charges are not evidence, do not strengthen the case, and do not justify her continued detention. The document also refutes the government's claim of corroborated witness testimony and notes that the defense has requested a continuance for the July trial, arguing that denying bail under these circumstances would be prejudicial.

Legal document
2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001341.jpg

This is the conclusion page (page 24) of a legal filing dated April 12, 2021, submitted by the Southern District of New York (Assistant US Attorneys Pomerantz, Comey, and Moe). The document argues that Judge Nathan acted correctly in denying Ghislaine Maxwell's motion for temporary release and concludes that the motion should remain denied.

2025-11-20

DOJ-OGR-00001339.jpg

This document is a page from a legal filing dated April 12, 2021, arguing against Ghislaine Maxwell's request for temporary release. It asserts that Judge Nathan did not abuse discretion in denying release because Maxwell has ample resources, including 'highly qualified' counsel and extensive access to computers (13 hours/day) to review discovery at the MDC. Footnotes clarify legal precedents and note that in-person attorney visitation at the MDC resumed in February 2021.
