“If She Is Out, I Need to Be Protected”: Inside Ghislaine Maxwell’s Virtual Arraignment

At U.S. District Court in Manhattan on Tuesday afternoon, two sketch artists sat at the front of the jury assembly room to captureas she was projected onto a screen. It was her much-awaited arraignment on charges of facilitating Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of minors as well as perjury, but the coronavirus pandemic meant that Maxwell entered her plea—not guilty of all allegations, which she denies—via video conference.

Maxwell, who’s being held at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, appeared to be in a conference room, and showed little emotion over the course of the two-plus hour hearing. On occasion she sipped from a Styrofoam cup. The prosecution’s successful argument against granting her bail turned largely on leveraging her wealth and social status against her, citing her “history of extensive international travel.” She has no income, prosecutors said, but seemingly inexhaustible resources.

PattyArquette Good she belongs in jail she should suffer for what she has done... when women betray each other... There are no words. She didn’t betray women really she betrayed children into the hands of men like trump

In all fairness, Maxwell has been out a long time and hasn't attacked her accusers. It seems more likely she will flee than seek revenge. Harming her accusers would only draw more attention and respurces against her.

Protect zero of them.

Shame on you for not publishing what your own investigative reporter found back in the mid-90s about Epstein's crimes. Instead you published a fluff piece about Epstein and allowed him to continue his abuse of young girls JeffreyEpsteinfilthyrich EpsteinSurvivors

She needs protection from Bill Barr! Most vile man.
