Maxwell Transferred to Texas Prison Camp as Lawyers Seek Trump Pardon

TEXAS, AUG 4 – Ghislaine Maxwell was moved following a private DOJ interview as her legal team seeks to overturn her 20-year sentence and pursue a presidential pardon, raising concerns about prison conditions.

  • The Bureau of Prisons said Friday that Ghislaine Maxwell, convicted of aiding Jeffrey Epstein, was moved on Aug. 1 from FCI Tallahassee in Florida to Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas.
  • After meeting with Deputy U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche, the transfer followed a closed-door meeting last week, according to BOP spokesperson Donald Murphy.
  • The Texas facility houses five female inmates, including Elizabeth Holmes and Jen Shah, and is classified as a minimum-security federal prison camp.
  • Relatives of Epstein victims say Maxwell is being shown leniency, while Maxwell’s lawyer, David Oscar Markus, confirmed the transfer but declined further comment.
  • Her legal team is pursuing Supreme Court review, and President Donald Trump said `I know nothing about the case` when asked about a potential pardon.
