Overview

  • Officials confirmed on August 1 that Maxwell was relocated from a low-security federal prison in Tallahassee to Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas.
  • FPC Bryan is a minimum-security women’s camp housing around 635 inmates, some facilities of which lack perimeter fences and focus on work programs.
  • Last week Maxwell met for two days with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche but declined to accept any pre-trial agreement.
  • Her lawyers have petitioned the U.S. Supreme Court to vacate her 20-year sentence and are seeking immunity or a presidential pardon in return for her testimony.
  • The House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed her without offering immunity and President Trump has confirmed no pardon request has been received.
