"Federal prosecutors urged a judge to reject a home confinement request by Ghislaine Maxwell, the confidant of accused sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, saying she is skilled at hiding and had wrapped a cell phone in foil to attempt to evade detection by authorities. "There will be no trial for the victims if the defendant is afforded the opportunity to flee the jurisdiction, and there is every reason to think that is exactly what she will do if she is released," prosecutors wrote in a court filing Monday. In the Monday filing, prosecutors said her proposal for home confinement, GPS tracking, and a $5 million bond secured, in part, with a property in the United Kingdom, is worth "nothing." They said Maxwell has shown a skilled ability to hide. When FBI agents went to arrest Maxwell at a mansion in New Hampshire on July 3, instead of obeying the agent's order to open the door, Maxwell fled to another room and closed the door behind her, according to the court filing. After the FBI breached the door they found Maxwell inside and arrested her. "As the agents conducted a security sweep of the house, they also noticed a cell phone wrapped in tin foil on top of a desk, a seemingly misguided effort to evade detection, not by the press or public, which of course would have no ability to trace her phone or intercept her communications, but by law enforcement," prosecutors wrote. Maxwell's brother hired former members of the British military to guard his sister at the New Hampshire property, prosecutors said. Maxwell provided one of the guards with a credit card, in the name of the limited liability company used to purchase the $1 million property in an all-cash deal, to make purchases on her behalf, according to prosecutors. "As these facts make plain, there should be no question that the defendant is skilled at living in hiding," prosecutors wrote." www.cnn.com/2020/07/13/us/new-york-ghislaine-maxwell-court/index.htmlThe rich are used to using money to buy their way out of consequences. Let's see how successful Ghislaine is at that.

Three passports. Tens of millions in 15+ bank accounts. Properties in foreign countries. International connections. She’s the poster gal of Flight Risk. (And you can't attach properties in foreign countries to a bond.)

And she offered the judge that she'd pay to stay in a luxury hotel in lieu of prison.
How thoughtful of her

I watched a Fox Business News special about Epstein (& Maxwell), out of curiosity. It's incredible how Fox touches on some pertinent topics but then diverts and does absolutely no digging and no journalism. I guess they could claim they did air segments or specials about these people but then they don't really tell the truth.
If Maxwell remains in jail, alive, then Trump (especially) should be extremely worried. Hoping that this case will be finally brought to justice.

Her trial is set a year from now - that’s a lot of time on your own with the light on.

Pleased in one way. Worried in another. I HATE being a conspiracy theorist, but I am one who isn't confident Epstein killed himself & I don't want her to end up dead, too. I mean, I don't like her; it's not that. If she ends up dead, we won't get at the truth.

And Ivanka, who was listed in his blackbook in 5 sections! As far as they all go, sure, if they're guilty, they should be worried, but from what many New Yorkers have known for decades, Trump and Epstein (together) had hundreds of underage sex parties and raped underage girls (and boys) in the basement of the Wexner Estate in the creepy room (allegedly). Trump is the only one linked to Epstein in the legal filings re rapes of minor girls. Trump has the most to be worried about, and the next one would be Barr's father's info coming out... ETA: not being partisan at all here, but I'd think that the ones in our administration (or our President) have the most to worry about!!!!! I'd love to see Dershowitz be found out if it's all true, and anyone famous or not, male or female, should be held accountable if they took part in this sick abusive sex ring.

Why should they worry? Just have her plead guilty and then Trump can pardon her.

On our radio station this morning, heard that her & Jeffery Epstein were secretly married. The thought was that she couldn't testify against him if something happened. Don't know if any truth to that...heard on talk radio

I remember hearing that the wikileaks guy had a kill switch that would delete everything he had. I wonder if Ghislaine has one. I am sure she is the keeper of all video and other stuff that they kept in order to blackmail the big wigs. If I'm possibly right, they aren't going to want to kill her unless someone else knows the whereabouts of that kill switch.

Where did I read that Maxwell had married Epstein so she didn't have to testify against him. Did someone already say it here?

If so, I wonder if she is waiting until the trial to spring it on the prosecution, who are probably counting on her testimony against him.

There’s no applying that privilege as she can’t testify against him and put him in jeopardy. She doesn’t have to testify as a party in her own criminal case or others given the allegations unless she makes a deal to testify against someone else or the prosecution gives her immunity to force her to testify which I can’t see happening.
