This document is page 25 of a bail application filed on July 10, 2020, for Ghislaine Maxwell. The defense argues that Maxwell is concealing the identities of potential bond co-signers to protect their safety and privacy. The filing cites legal precedents involving high-profile defendants like Bernie Madoff and Marc Dreier to argue that Maxwell should be granted release subject to conditions, including the potential use of private security guards.
DOJ-OGR-00001092.jpg
This document is a page from a court transcript dated April 1, 2021, regarding the denial of bail for Ghislaine Maxwell. The court rules that she is a significant flight risk due to her foreign connections and ability to evade security. The judge dismisses the defense's comparisons to other high-profile cases (Esposito, Dreier, Madoff) as unpersuasive due to factual differences, and notes the defense's argument regarding the COVID-19 pandemic.
DOJ-OGR-00000982.jpg
This legal document is a page from a bail application for Ms. Maxwell, filed on July 10, 2020. The argument presented is that her proposed bail conditions are consistent with precedents set in other high-profile cases within the same circuit, citing the releases of defendants like Esposito, Marc Dreier, and Bernie Madoff, who were also considered significant flight risks. The document also notes that Maxwell is not relying on her family and friends to co-sign the bond in order to protect their privacy.
DOJ-OGR-00000937.jpg
This page is an excerpt from a legal filing dated April 1, 2021, arguing for Ghislaine Maxwell's release on bail. The defense contends that wealthy male defendants with foreign ties (listing specific examples like Madoff and Weinstein) were granted bail to prepare for trial, and Maxwell deserves the same treatment. It cites legal precedents stating that pretrial detention is an 'extraordinary remedy' reserved for limited cases.
DOJ-OGR-00000564.jpg
This document is page 54 of a court transcript from July 24, 2019, in the case United States v. Jeffrey Epstein. Defense attorney Mr. Weinberg argues for Epstein's release on bail, citing high-profile defendants like Madoff and Skilling who honored their bail conditions and surrendered for prison. The Judge asks if those precedents involved a 'presumption' of detention, which Weinberg admits they may not have, but argues that Epstein's 14-year history of non-danger negates that presumption.
DOJ-OGR-00000283.jpg
This document is page 10 of a legal filing (Case 1:19-cr-00490-RMB) dated July 11, 2019, arguing for Jeffrey Epstein's pretrial release. Defense counsel argues that home confinement with 24-hour private armed guards—paid for by Epstein—is the 'least restrictive' condition to assure his appearance, citing precedents like Bernie Madoff and Marc Dreier. The filing addresses the Judge's potential concerns about wealthy defendants 'buying their way out' of jail, arguing that denying this option based on wealth raises equal protection concerns.
