Newly released footage included in the latest Epstein files dump provides an inside look into convicted madam Ghislaine Maxwell’s midday routine after she swapped her high-flying illicit lifestyle for a stark Brooklyn jail cell.
Among the three million files released last week was a clip revealing a splice of the prolific child groomer’s chillingly mundane life inside Brooklyn’s notorious Metropolitan Detention Center.
The footage, taken by a surveillance camera on July 1, 2020 just before 2 p.m., shows Maxwell, 63, cleaning something in the sink near her cot. She then shuffled from the sink back to her unmade bed, which she attempted to reset while folding a spare orange jumpsuit.
Once she was seemingly satisfied with the barely-made bed, she lay down on her back and returned to reading a well-worn book, according to the video.
Before the Oxford-educated British socialite was slapped with a 20-year prison sentence for her decades-long sexual abuse scheme with Jeffrey Epstein, she enjoyed near unlimited access to the disgraced financier’s Florida mansion, famed island, and private jet as well as her own million-dollar New Hampshire hideaway.
In the Brooklyn facility, Maxwell was provided with the same resources as every other prisoner — including other high-profile inmates like Luigi Mangione and former Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, who both remain at MDC.
That short list of amenities includes the basic orange jumpsuits, a thin mattress, any approved religious medallion or books, but no personal possessions.
Maxwell was moved to Camp Bryan, a minimum-security prison in Texas nicknamed “Club Fed,” in August. The move came after she met with President Trump’s Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche for nine hours over two days to discuss her personal history with the dead pedophile.
The convicted sex trafficker boasted about her new digs and highlighted the lack of “possums falling from the ceiling.”
“I feel like I have dropped through Alice in Wonderlands [sic] looking glass,” Maxwell wrote to a relative, NBC News reported.
Other new Maxwell features in the files include her July 2020 mugshot and a brief email exchange between her and Melania Trump.
Epstein’s right-hand woman was found guilty of conspiracy to entice a minor to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, conspiracy to transport a minor with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, transporting a minor with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, and conspiracy to commit sex trafficking of minors.
