Event Details

This legal document, filed by the law office of Bobbi C. Sternheim on behalf of Ms. Maxwell, argues against the restrictive conditions of her confinement at the Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC). The filing contends that these measures, including constant surveillance and repeated searches, are an overreaction to the BOP's failure to prevent Jeffrey Epstein's death, rather than being based on any specific risk posed by Maxwell. The document also raises concerns about Ms. Maxwell's exposure to COVID-19 and the erasure of her legal emails, quoting then-Attorney General William Barr's stated interest in ensuring she makes it to trial.
