"Sam Mangel is a federal prison consultant whose clients have included Sam Bankman-Fried and Steve Bannon. He told Fox News Digital he works with two women incarcerated at Bryan, neither of whom will discuss Maxwell, even with him, over the phone or through email.

"Speaking with the sister of one of my clients yesterday or the day before, she told me that they are treating Maxwell more like she's the guest in a hotel as opposed to an inmate in a federal prison," he said Wednesday.

;;

"In one example, he said prison officials locked down the whole camp, so Maxwell could have a secretive visit with VIP guests in the chapel.

"They actually closed everything down and locked everybody in their unit and brought the visitors into the chapel but through a side entrance so that no one can see who the visitors were," Mangel said. "That's very unusual."

However, he added, if Maxwell were to have visitors in front of other inmates, that could stoke further controversy, especially for prisoners with daughters the same age as Maxwell's victims.

It's unprecedented that someone convicted of sex crimes would be housed at Bryan, he said, which he called the most desirable prison for women convicted of white collar felonies in the country."

OF course it is... this after all is the President's Pedo Pimp.

... Resentful fellow prisoners have complained ....

Maybe those fellow prisoners don' have damaging info about Pres Trump and young girls?

"... prisoners with daughters the same age as Maxwell's victims."

Pedo pimps aren't welcome even in prison.

And who, pray tell, were her mysterious (WH?) visitors.

And:

"Yacht once owned by Ghislaine Maxwell's father catches fire in DC, reports say"

A superyacht that was once named after Ghislaine Maxwell ignited this week while docked at the Wharf in Washington, D.C., due to what fire officials said was an electrical malfunction."

"The yacht was built in 1986, according to data from the Electronic Quality Information System. It was once owned by Robert Maxwell, who had named the vessel "Lady Ghislaine," per a 1989 report from the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.

The report states that Robert Maxwell once held an event on the vessel that President Donald Trump and Ghislaine Maxwell attended.

In 1991, Robert Maxwell, a British politician and business owner, drowned after falling overboard from his yacht as it sailed in the Canary Islands, The Guardian and The Independent reported."

Her father/gangster's death was considered quite suspicious at the time.

Yeah, that's a good question, asking why such a high level of security might have been needed.

But, then, there is also the unanswered question from this "most transparent administration ever" of why was Ms Maxwell transferred to such a low security prison.

Maxwell's father was a notorious figure, a brutish, nasty piece of work and huge fraudster who died under "mysterious" circumstances after massive fraud and theft.

By all accounts, she thought he was absolutely terrific.

Maxwell told Blanche what he wanted to hear (she won't turn on Trump as long long as ... ), delivered a veiled warning (prominent unnamed individuals noted), and is now awaiting the pardon that is clearly hers for having resisted the temptation to take note of his complicity in a sophisticated pedo trafficking network. (What other possible reason for all the clumsy stonewalling?)

"His complicity" is referring to Old Yeller.

Corky is obsessed with Epstein, maybe he wishes he was on the island when he was a wee lad so he could have given Bill Clinton a "message". It's still amazing that Biden and the Dems who controlled the Epstein evidence for 4 years didn't expose the obvious (according to Corky) that Trump was involved. I mean it would have been a lot easier than trying to bankrupt, jail, keep him off the ballot and then kill him don't you think?

You are not kidding anyone hater with your latest BS.

Does it matter what Trumpy's charged with? Or by whom? (Like you would support anything Biden did).

You would have just ignored it too and cried "Lawfare!!" "It's not fair!!" Just as you did for the 88 other criminal indictments against Trumpy that you ignored and continue to ignore.

I'd like to see Trump - and I'm serious about this - come to the realization that unless and until he releases the Epstein Files the stench of suspected pedophilia will continue to swirl around him, never dissipating and only gathering momentum with the passage of time because of his increasingly desperate effort to bury the information. It would certainly be good for the politics of this country.

And, if he's telling the truth, ending the Epstein Coverup's sequestration of evidence should present Trump with no cause for personal harm or embarrassment.

That is, once again, if Trump is telling the truth.

Which is, frankly, hard to imagine given that he keeps acting guilty as all hell.

#13 They were overturned by a real court after appeal you moron. And the courts knew they would, the only reason they pushed them through was so idiots like you could yell "felon" until the appeals.

#14. Again, if it was so incriminating on Trump why didn't Biden release them? Pretty easy question. I am predicting they will be released and the Dems will have egg on their faces once again.

Oooooooh, now I see: That renowned three-dimensional chess grandmaster Trump is luring Democrats into a clever trap by sequestering information that exonerates him and which the Democrats did not release because it would help him only for him to now (well, not NOW, of course) eventually release the exculpatory material because ... .

I'll be Xi is breaking out in a flop sweat right about now.

Not blaming Biden, just asking a simple question that Dems will not answer, why didn't Biden release the tapes?

Now it's my turn to ask a simple question.
One that republicans won't answer.

Why did Trump run on releasing the files and then NOT release the files?

I'm not a Dem, but I've answered this question NUMEROUS times. And the answer is simple: because pedo Joe and Bill Clinton are in the files along with other prominent Dem donors.

Now how about YOU answer the question cultists refuse to answer: why are Trump and Republican congress running cover for pedo Joe and Bill Clinton?

ObfuscationFish.

Your question is an attempt not to address why your Cult Leader doesn't do what he said he would do; release the Epstein files.

Instead, we've got the Epstein Shutdown of the Gov to keep from swearing in the 218th vote to release the Epstein files.

And your Cult Leader playing footsies with the convicted pedo pimp Maxwell; allowing her private meetings with what will turn out to be Trump lawyers/WH officials.

Where are they? RIGHT NOW?

Not only that. She stated Trump was in them.

"Attorney General Pam Bondi and her deputy Todd Blanche informed President Donald Trump in May that his name appeared multiple times in the Epstein files."

Trump has nothing to worry about.

Republicans are pro pedophilia.

All of them have decided Trump Raping children isn't a big deal.

Hell, most of them have raped children and the rest haven't had the opportunity to yet.

Time to drop the really big bomb:

@realDonaldTrump is in the Epstein files. That is the real reason they have not been made public.

Have a nice day, DJT!

The truth is that Maxwell has the dirt on Trump and his friends and he is buying her silence.

Evangelical pedofascists need to protect their members who are wrapped up in this ... she knows too much, so they're treating her well, for now. She likely has a "If I fall out of a window, send these envelopes to all the major news outlets" contingency/blackmail.

Mike Johnson is freaking out.
