Overview

  • Maxwell was moved from FCI Tallahassee to the Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas on August 1, where she joins inmates convicted of nonviolent and white-collar offenses in a minimum-security setting.
  • President Trump has stated he has not been asked to pardon Maxwell and is not considering granting her clemency.
  • The Bureau of Prisons described the transfer as “unusual” because it was conducted by bureau officials rather than by the U.S. Marshals Service.
  • Following two days of late-July meetings with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, Maxwell’s legal team formally sought immunity or a presidential pardon in exchange for her testimony.
  • Advocates for Epstein’s victims, including the family of Virginia Giuffre, have condemned any leniency and urged that Maxwell serve her full 20-year sentence.
