A court order email from defense attorney Bobbi C. Sternheim directing the Bureau of Prisons to give Ghislaine Maxwell laptop access on weekends and holidays to review discovery materials in her criminal case.
This January 15, 2021 email contains an urgent court order from Judge Alison J. Nathan granting Ghislaine Maxwell's request for expanded laptop access during her pre-trial detention at the Metropolitan Detention Center. Maxwell's defense team argued she was losing valuable discovery review time on weekends and holidays because the prison's regular computer lacked the software needed to read the voluminous evidence produced by prosecutors. The order directed the Bureau of Prisons to immediately provide Maxwell laptop access during these additional times.
