GHISLAINE Maxwell has moaned about the conditions in the āhell-holeā Brooklyn jail where sheās locked up ahead of her sex-crimes trial.
Maxwell was arrested on July 2 when the FBI swooped in her $1 million New Hampshire bolthole and she is facing multiple charges of procuring underage girls for Jeffrey Epstein to abuse.
Epstein – Maxwell’s former boyfriend – killed himself aged 66 prison in August 2019 while awaiting trial on child sex trafficking charges and Maxwell has been on suicide watch.
But she has complained that despite easing of the suicide watch ā which involved being forced wear paper clothes and sleep on a bare mattress – conditions are still onerous,Ā the New York Post reports.
Her lawyers have now asked she is moved out of moved out of solitary confinement and into the general population, claiming the Bureau of Prisons is mistreating her.
āShe continues to be surveilled 24 hours a day by security cameras and by multiple prison guards, many of whom do not appear to be regular MDC personnel,ā they lawyers argued in a court filing.
āThese prison guards constantly observe Ms.Maxwell and take notes on her every activity, including her phone conversations with defense counsel.
āIt has become apparent that the BOPās treatment of Ms. Maxwell is a reaction to the circumstances surrounding the pretrial detention and death of Mr. Epstein.
