Nathan United States District Judge United States Courthouse 40 Foley Square New York, NY 10007 Re: United States v. Ghislaine Maxwell 20 Cr. 330 (AJN) Dear Judge Nathan: As counsel for Ghislaine Maxwell, we write in response to the letter from Sophia Papapetru and John Wallace, MDC staff attorneys. (See Dkt. 88.) The letter fails to address a number of concerns raised in our October 29" letter to Warden Heriberto Tellez and raised with the Court. The MDC’s letter also contains inaccuracies and omissions and raises more questions than it attempts to answer. Rather than paraphrase our letter, we are providing it for the Court’s consideration. (See Exhibit A.) We renew our request that Warden Tellez respond directly to the Court and counsel and explain why Ms. Maxwell must be detained under such harsh and restrictive conditions. Using the term “[iJn her current assignment,” the letter attempts to present a picture of compliance with total disregard of the deficiencies of Ms. Maxwell’s treatment up to this point. While her meals may currently be in accordance with BOP policy, until September they were not. While her weight may currently be fairly consistent, she had lost over 15 pounds, and she is sustaining hair loss. It took approximately six weeks following arrival to the MDC for Ms. Maxwell to be permitted personal calls on par with other inmates; previously she was given two calls per month unless authorized by the warden. While generally permitted to be out of her isolation cell and confined to the day room from 7:00 am to 8:00 pm with one hour of recreation time, general population inmates are permitted to be out of their cells until 9:30 pm and given more extensive recreation time
