U.S. District Judge Alison J. Nathan in Manhattan made the observation while explaining her reasons for denying bail earlier this week for Ghislaine Maxwell, the former girlfriend of Epstein, the wealthy financier and convicted sex offender. Defense lawyers recently asked for bail again, saying Maxwell has pledged her $22.5 million in assets plus millions more from friends and family. The judge noted the charges carry a presumption of detention before trial and could result in a long prison term. “But by and large, the arguments presented either were made at the initial bail hearing or could have been made then," Nathan wrote. She noted that Maxwell wasn't living with him in July and claimed they were getting divorced.

U.S. District Judge Alison J. Nathan in Manhattan rejected the proposed bail for Ghislaine Maxwell in an order. Her attorneys said Maxwell would remain in a New York City residence under 24-hour guard and would submit to electronic monitoring if the judge accepted the bail package. A message seeking comment was sent to Maxwell's lawyers after Nathan ruled. She was charged with recruiting three teenagers as young as age 14 for Epstein to sexually abuse between 1994 and 1997.

Maxwell's first attempt to get out on bail, shortly after her arrest, was rejected.

Lawyers for the former girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein are urging a judge to free her to await trial under a $28.5 million bail package that would include armed guards to ensure she remains safe and doesn't flee a New York City residence. Maxwell, 58, is scheduled to face a July trial on charges that she recruited three teenage girls for Epstein to abuse in the mid-1990s. It said the assets, $16 million of which were in cash or equities, were worth $22.5 million on Oct. 31. "Ms. Maxwell vehemently maintains her innocence and is committed to defending herself," the lawyers wrote. Epstein killed himself in a federal Manhattan lockup in August 2019 as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges.
