Today's Ghislaine's big day, folks.

Sentencing time!

Prosecutors are seeking a range of 30 to 55 years in prison.

"Maxwell's attorneys requested a more lenient sentence of between 4.25 and 5.25 years in prison, calling it a "travesty of justice" if Maxwell faces a sentence more appropriate for Epstein himself."

I get it that it's her attorney's job to zealously advocate for her but...

Like goddamn, what's is even the point of trying these arguments? This is like some bizarre bargaining play where you start out bidding low, except it's 8-10 times less than what they're asking for. It's such a comically big shift.

Women also tend to get lighter sentences and her defense painted her as an accomplice. She wasn't doing interviews where she freaked out, etc...

Absolutely the justice system hates and is unfair to black people but this seems like a weird time to make the point.

Ghislaine Maxwell moved to a low-security prison in Florida for 20-year sentence

Ghislaine Maxwell has been moved to a low-security federal prison in Florida to serve her 20-year sentence for sex trafficking, according to the Federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP).

Maxwell, who has filed notice that she intends to appeal her conviction and sentence, is currently listed as an inmate at the Federal Correctional Institution in Tallahassee.

She was moved on Friday, according to a source close to the defense. The facility is different than what Maxwell�s attorneys had requested. They asked that she serve her time in Danbury, Connecticut.

Maxwell, 60, was found guilty of conspiring with Jeffrey Epstein to recruit, groom and abuse minors.

�There is nothing cushy about Maxwell's designation. She is going to be surrounded by barbed wire and fences. Her new facility is a far cry from the minimum security camps that people may imagine from television," said Duncan Levin, a former federal prosecutor now in private practice in New York who was not involved in the case.

Can't find any pictures of the inside, but boy loads of articles want to pain this as Club Fed because they have yoga. Yoga is the probably the cheapest exercise there is.

But wait! During her incarceration, Maxwell can participate in yoga, pilates, weightlifting, softball, flag football, frisbee and there�s a track for running. The prison also holds a talent show.
She can also become an apprentice electrician, baker, horticulturist, plumber and cosmetologist.

Oh wow, plumbing and Pilates. I'm sure the wealthy socialite will love every minute of it. :rolleyes:

June 21, 2006, 6:23 AM PDT / Source: The Associated Press

A furious gun battle erupted inside a federal prison Wednesday when a guard opened fire on FBI agents who had come to arrest him and several others on charges of having sex with female inmates in exchange for money and contraband. Two people were killed and another was wounded.

The dead were the guard and a U.S. Justice Department investigator. A prison employee helping with the arrest was hospitalized.

Six guards in all had been indicted Tuesday on charges they had sex with the women by bribing them with money and contraband in a scheme that went on for two years. The contraband was not specified but could include drugs and alcohol.

When FBI agents and Justice Department investigators arrived at the prison Wednesday to arrest the men, one of the indicted guards shot a federal correctional officer, said FBI spokesman John Girgenti. He said the officers fired back.

The guard fired with a personal weapon, wounding a Bureau of Prisons employee who was assisting with the arrest. Agents from the Justice Department�s inspector general�s office returned fire, killing the guard. A Justice Department agent was killed in the exchange. It was not immediately clear who fired that fatal shot.

�These agents were out just trying to do their job, trying to do an arrest in a very controlled situation, and it just didn�t come down exactly as planned,� FBI agent Michael Folmar said.

Officials did not release the gunman�s identity, but lawyer Tim Jansen said the dead guard was Ralph Hill, his client. The slain Justice Department agent was identified as William �Buddy� Sentner, 44, who formerly worked for the Secret Service before joining the inspector general�s office in 2002.

The identity of the survivor was not disclosed, but he was reported in stable condition. Folmar said the man should fully recover.

Hill, 43, had voluntarily supplied a saliva sample after authorities began investigating the sex-for-contraband scandal in November, Jansen said.

A woman who answered the front door at Hill�s home declined to comment.

Guards threatened inmates
The detention center houses mostly men who are being processed before entering the prison system and is part of the Tallahassee Federal Correctional Institution. A low-security prison for female inmates is next to the detention center. Together the men�s and women�s units house 1,445 inmates.

Guards are prohibited from bringing personal weapons into prisons but are not screened the way visitors are, Wilson said.

In addition to the sex charges, the guards were accused of threatening to plant contraband in inmates� belongings or have them sent to other institutions farther from their families if they reported the illegal activity.

According to the indictment, the guards showed inmates information about themselves and inmates on the prison computer system to prove that their threats were real. It said the guards switched assignments to arrange trysts with inmates.

The five other guards entered not-guilty pleas in federal court and were scheduled for a bail hearing Thursday. They were charged with conspiracy to commit bribery, witness tampering, mail fraud and interstate transportation in aid of racketeering. If convicted, they could face up to 20 years in prison.
