On Thursday, Maxwell’s attorney Bobbi Sternheim, shared the close-up photo of the suspected pedophile, claiming she’s been poorly treated behind bars. In a court filing alerting the court to their ongoing concerns about Maxwell’s treatment, Sternheim wrote that on Wednesday evening she was “confronted by MDC staff due to a visible bruise over her left eye.”
The filing said: “No guard addressed the bruise until Ms. Maxwell, who has no mirror, caught a reflection of her aching eye in the glean of a nail clipper,” the Daily Mail quotes. Sternheim pointed out that Maxwell got what she called a “black eye” even despite 24/7 camera surveillance on her at all times.
Following the release of the photo, a judge on Thursday ordered the US government to explain why guards repeatedly flashlight into Ghislaine Maxwell’s cell overnight, an action her lawyers say may have led to the bruising. Maxwell, who is accused of grooming girls for pedophile ex Jeffrey Epstein, and joining in on his alleged abuse of them, has only been seen in court sketches until now, as no cameras or recording devices are allowed at hearings.
