Overview

• Ghislaine Maxwell is serving a 20-year federal sentence at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas following brief stays in Tallahassee and Oakdale, Louisiana.
• Her legal team has publicly lobbied President Trump for clemency that would grant her formal immunity before her House Oversight Committee deposition.
• Attorney David Oscar Markus has warned Maxwell will invoke her Fifth Amendment right if she is not awarded immunity and argues that prison conditions hinder candid testimony.
• The Bureau of Prisons, rather than the usual U.S. Marshals Service, handled her recent transfer, highlighting the case’s political sensitivity.
