Ghislaine Maxwell looks ‘pretty good’, despite being detained. Her brother said that after seeing her in court for the first 500 days, he believes she is looking ‘pretty well.
Kevin Maxwell (62), spoke with reporters after attending Maxwell’s third day trial in New York.
Maxwell said that it gave him a great sense of relief being able touch her and even speak to her.
‘That’s the first time I’ve spoken to her personally in over 500 days since her pre-trial detention started.
“To see her looking quite well, despite the detention conditions that are the subject of a formal complaint before the United Nations Committee on Arbitrary Detention.”
Isabel, 72 year old, entrepreneur sister, was dressed in a beret and attended the first day.

Kevin talked while his sister stood by him at the court. They left the court without answering any further questions.
Maxwell is Epstein’s ex girlfriend. She was accused of recruiting minors to the disgraced financier. They deny the accusations.
She was 59 years old when she was detained in July, after Judge Alison Nathan refused her bail applications.
According to court records, guards flashed light into the cell of Marissa and left her black-eyed.
The cell measures 6 feet by 9 feet and has no natural lighting.
Maxwell’s lawyers claim Maxwell also had maggots in the food she ate and rats in Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Centre.
Counsel for Maxwell stated that Maxwell has become less willing to give information to guards because of fear of punishment, discipline, and punitive tasks.
Ian Maxwell, another brother of Maxwell, said that his sister was in “effective isolation” at Brooklyn’s Metropolitan Detention Centre. She is currently being held in an apartment measuring 6x9ft and 9ft. The cell has no natural lighting and includes a toilet.
Over unfounded concerns that she might be suicidal, he said she can’t sleep as she’s constantly being watched by 10 cameras and 4 guards.
Epstein, who was being held in Brooklyn on charges for sex trafficking in minors in Florida or New York, committed suicide in Brooklyn in 2019.
LBC spoke to Ian last Monday. He said that he had met Prince Andrew on two occasions at his sister’s house, so it was not necessary to speak to her.
He said that he knew them to be friends. Now, he finds himself in an awful position, where he was effectively ”cancelled.’ As a Royal Family member. I find this very doubtful.
‘So I hope that clearly my sister will be exonerated at the end of her trial and that that will in some way assist Prince Andrew clear his own name from the charges that he too is facing – although those are civil charges – from a very vocal accuser of both of them – who, I might add, is not testifying at the trial, which tells you all you need to know about her credibility.’
