DOJ-OGR-00001165.jpg

This page from a legal filing (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN) argues against granting bail to the defendant (Ghislaine Maxwell). The prosecution details her sophisticated efforts to evade detection in the year prior to her arrest, including purchasing a home through a trust, using aliases with real estate agents, and holding assets/credit cards under false names. The document asserts these actions prove she is a flight risk capable of assuming a new identity.
