The court denied Ghislaine Maxwell's renewed motion for release on bail pending trial. The court found that Maxwell poses a clear risk of flight and that no conditions or combination of conditions would ensure her appearance. The charges against her are serious, involving conspiracy and transportation of minors for illegal sex acts, and carry lengthy terms of imprisonment. The court considered her substantial resources, foreign ties, and lack of candor about her financial situation. The court also addressed the legal standards for bail and the presumption of detention, concluding that the proposed bail package was insufficient to mitigate the risk of flight.
