Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted sex trafficker once closely linked to Jeffrey Epstein, has been quietly relocated from a low-security prison in Florida to a minimum-security federal prison camp in Bryan, Texas.
Her lawyer confirmed the transfer, which coincides with mounting legal pressure, including a pending congressional subpoena and ongoing discussions about a possible pardon from President Donald Trump.
Maxwell, 63, was previously incarcerated at a facility in Tallahassee, Florida, serving a 20-year sentence for her role in Epstein’s sex trafficking operation.
Earlier this week, she was moved to the Federal Prison Camp Bryan, a minimum-security facility known for housing white-collar offenders like Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes and former reality TV star Jen Shah, according to the Daily Mail.
Reports indicate that this transfer was managed by the Federal Bureau of Prisons—a detail worth noting as prisoner movements are often coordinated by the U.S. Marshals Service.
Before arriving in Texas, Maxwell reportedly spent time at a federal prison in Oakdale, Louisiana.
The new environment at Bryan will provide Maxwell with access to commissary items such as cosmetics and hobby kits, including materials for crochet and sewing.
The timing of Maxwell’s transfer aligns with her team’s reported efforts to secure a presidential pardon.
Her legal representatives have expressed willingness for her to testify “openly and honestly” before Congress in exchange for clemency, signaling a possible cooperation deal.
Last week, the House Oversight Committee issued a subpoena requiring Maxwell’s deposition on Aug. 11.
However, her attorney, David Oscar Markus, indicated that she might invoke her Fifth Amendment rights and refuse to testify unless granted immunity.
Markus explained, “Ms. Maxwell cannot risk further criminal exposure in a politically charged environment without formal immunity. Nor is a prison setting conducive to eliciting truthful and complete testimony.”
When questioned about the possibility of pardoning Maxwell, Trump stated, “Well, I’m allowed to give her a pardon, but nobody’s approached me with it.”
Adding to the legal drama, Maxwell recently underwent an extensive interview with officials from the Department of Justice (DOJ).
Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche traveled to Florida for the multi-hour session, highlighting the significance of the ongoing investigation into Epstein’s crimes and alleged cover-ups.
Markus praised the thoroughness of the interview, noting, “The deputy attorney general is seeking the truth. He asked every possible question, and he was doing an amazing job.”
According to Markus, Maxwell was questioned about nearly 100 individuals connected to the Epstein case.
Despite prior promises from Bondi to release additional documents, the DOJ announced last month that no further files related to the Epstein investigation would be made public.
Officials also confirmed that there is no existing list of Epstein’s clients.
Maxwell is currently appealing her conviction, partly on grounds tied to a previous government assurance that potential co-conspirators linked to Epstein would not be prosecuted.
This promise originated from Epstein’s controversial 2008 plea deal, where he pleaded guilty to state charges involving soliciting a minor for prostitution after federal prosecutors shifted the case away from the federal court system.
