NEW YORK—A U.S. judge rejected Ghislaine Maxwell’s request to be moved into the general population at the Brooklyn jail where she is awaiting trial on charges she aided the late financier Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of girls.
Maxwell had objected to being treated worse than other pretrial inmates at the Metropolitan Detention Center, citing “onerous” conditions including round-the-clock surveillance, numerous body scans, and being isolated in her cell most of the time.
