Federal judge, Southern District of New York, presided over Epstein-related proceedings
Loretta A. Preska is a senior United States district judge for the Southern District of New York who presided over aspects of the Ghislaine Maxwell case and related filings. She was appointed by President George H.W. Bush in 1992 and served as Chief Judge from 2009 to 2016.
Judge Preska's involvement in the Epstein-related documents primarily stems from her role as the presiding judge in the Southern District of New York. She ruled on motions related to the release of documents in the Ghislaine Maxwell case, including denying a request from the Miami Herald to unseal certain documents. She also addressed issues related to improperly redacted information in released documents, citing the human cost of such errors. Several documents are letters addressed to her regarding the Maxwell case.
