Ghislaine Maxwell has returned to Florida, though under far different circumstances than her previous time as lady of the house at ex-boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein’s Palm Beach mansion.
The accomplice of the deceased financier Epstein has been sent to FCI Tallahassee, the low-security federal prison in Tallahassee. Her earliest release would be in July 2037.
Maxwell was convicted at the end of the year of sexual trafficking of a minor and related charges. Federal prosecutors demonstrated at her trial last year that Maxwell had recruited and groomed numerous girls for Epstein’s abuse, including at his Palm Beach mansion, and had participated in the abuse herself in at least one instance. The girls were as young as 14 when Maxwell first began to befriend them and normalize them to participating in sexual activity.
