Ghislaine Maxwell moved from Florida to lower-security federal prison camp in Texas

Ghislaine Maxwell, associate of deceased financier and convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, was moved from a federal prison in Tallahassee, Fla., to a lower-security federal prison camp in Bryan, Texas.

“We can confirm, Ghislaine Maxwell is in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons (BOP) at the Federal Prison Camp (FPC) Bryan in Bryan, Texas,” BOP spokesperson Donald Murphy told CNN but declined to give an explanation for the move.

Maxwell was convicted on sex trafficking charges in 2021 and is serving a 20-year prison sentence for soliciting and grooming young women for Epstein. On Monday, she appealed to the Supreme Court to overturn her conviction. The Supreme Court said it will meet in private to discuss Ghislaine Maxwell's bid to overturn her sex-trafficking conviction on Sept. 29.

The prison camp is the least-restrictive type of federal prison facilities, housing inmates considered to be low-risk, non-violent, and unlikely to escape. These camps have very little or no fencing containing the inmates, and they are able to move relatively freely inside.

Other inmates in the women's camp include Jen Shah, who was on the TV show “Real Housewives of Salt Lake City,” and Elizabeth Holmes, formerly of the blood-testing company Theranos.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche met with Maxwell in Tallahassee last week to discuss Epstein's sex trafficking operation, and she was reportedly given limited immunity to answer questions.
