to

about

Ghislaine
Maxwell
Transferred
to
Minimum-Security
Prison
Camp in
Texas
Following
DOJ
Meeting
Move
comes
one week
after
convicted
Epstein
associate
met with
top
Trump
administration
official
BRYAN,
Texas -
Ghislaine
Maxwell,
Jeffrey
Epstein's
co-conspirator
and
confidant,
was
moved to
a
minimum-security
federal
prison
camp in
Texas,
prison
officials
confirmed
Friday.
"We can
confirm,
Ghislaine
Maxwell
is in
the
custody
of the
Bureau
of
Prisons
(BOP) at
the
Federal
Prison
Camp
(FPC)
Bryan in
Bryan,
Texas,"
BOP
spokesperson
Donald
Murphy
said in
a
statement.
The
transfer
represents
a
significant
downgrade
in
security
level
for
Maxwell,
who had
been
serving
her
20-year
sentence
at FCI
Tallahassee,
a
low-security
facility
in
Florida.
Maxwell's
transfer
to a
minimum-security
prison
is
relatively
uncommon,
as those
convicted
of
serious
federal
crimes
typically
remain
in
higher-security
facilities.
The
timing
of the
move has
drawn
scrutiny,
coming
after
meeting
last
week
with
Deputy
Attorney
General
Todd
Blanche,
who said
he
wanted
to learn
what she
knows
about
Jeffrey
Epstein.
Officials
didn't
give a
reason
for
transferring
the
convicted
Jeffrey
Epstein
co-conspirator,
who is
appealing
her
conviction
and
seeking
clemency.
Maxwell,
63, was
convicted
in 2021
on
charges
including
sex
trafficking
of
minors
and
conspiracy.
She was
sentenced
to 20
years in
federal
prison
for her
role in
Epstein's
sex
trafficking
operation
that
exploited
underage
girls.
The
Federal
Prison
Camp
Bryan is
a
minimum-security
facility
that
houses
inmates
including
Theranos
founder
Elizabeth
Holmes
and Jen
Shah of
"The
Real
Housewives
of Salt
Lake
City."
These
facilities,
known as
"prison
camps,"
typically
house
non-violent
offenders
considered
low
flight
risks.
The
transfer
has
prompted
criticism
from
Epstein
victims
and
advocates,
who
question
whether
the move
signals
potential
preferential
treatment.
Maxwell
continues
to
maintain
her
innocence
and is
pursuing
appeals
of her
conviction
while
also
seeking
clemency
from the
Trump
administration.
The
Bureau
of
Prisons
has not
provided
additional
details
about
the
reasoning
behind
the
transfer
or
whether
it's
related
to
Maxwell's
recent
cooperation
with DOJ
officials.
