This document is page 5 of a legal filing (Document 106) from December 30, 2020, in the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN). It details the Defendant's new motion for bail, proposing a $28.5 million package co-signed by her spouse, friends, and family, secured by property and cash.

This document is page 16 of a court order filed on December 30, 2020, in the case of United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN). The Court denies the Defendant's request for release, citing a 'lack of candor' and 'woefully incomplete' financial representations made to Pretrial Services. Consequently, the Court concludes the Defendant remains a flight risk and rejects the proposed $28.5 million bail package.

This page from a court order (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN) argues against granting bail to Ghislaine Maxwell, citing her lack of US employment ties, significant foreign connections, and flight risk. The text details her history of providing 'incomplete or erroneous' financial information to Pretrial Services, specifically noting a July 2020 incident where she underreported assets at $3.5 million and misrepresented her ownership status of a New Hampshire property. It references a report by the accounting firm Macalvins intended to clarify her finances.

This document is page 15 of a court filing (Document 106) from December 30, 2020, in the case against Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN). The text argues for continued detention, citing Maxwell's lack of employment ties to the US, significant ties abroad, and a pattern of providing incomplete financial information to Pretrial Services, specifically underreporting assets by omitting spousal assets and trust accounts in July 2020. It references a financial report prepared by the accounting firm Macalvins and disputes Maxwell's defense that her financial misrepresentations were due to lack of access to records while detained.

This document is page 13 of a court order filed on December 30, 2020 (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN), denying release/bail for the Defendant (contextually Ghislaine Maxwell). The Court argues that the Defendant poses a significant flight risk due to her French citizenship, the difficulty of extradition (specifically mentioning Israel), her extraordinary financial resources, and her proven ability to avoid detection. The Court explicitly rejects the Defendant's argument that waiving extradition rights indicates an intent not to flee.

This document is page 18 of a court order filed on December 30, 2020, in the case United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell (Case 1:20-cr-00330-AJN). The text details the Court's rejection of bail arguments, stating that the Defendant's significant wealth and assets (including $4 million in a hedge fund) would allow her to flee and compensate any bond supporters for their losses. It further outlines strict proposed release conditions, including home confinement, GPS monitoring, and security guards, which the Court ultimately finds insufficient to mitigate flight risk.
