New York Prison Authorities Take Steps to Protect Epstein Pal Ghislaine Maxwell

Prison officials are taking extraordinary measures to protect the safety of Ghislaine Maxwell while she is being held in a federal detention center in Brooklyn. Maxwell, the former confidante of Jeffrey Epstein, is being issued a prison uniform made of paper. She’ll also have a cellmate, and will be monitored around the clock. Authorities want to prevent Maxwell from befalling a fate similar to Epstein, who died in his cell in August 2019.
