Ghislain Maxwell mugshot via FOIA.¶
This is a request under the Freedom of Information Act. I request that a copy of the following documents be provided to me: the mugshot(s) and any other photograph(s) in your agency’s possession of federal inmate Ghislaine Maxwell. The inmate is a 58-year-old woman who was arrested on July 2 in Bradford, New Hampshire and who is currently being held in federal detention on sex trafficking charges at the Metropolitan Detention Center, which is located at 80 29th St, Brooklyn, NY 11232. The inmate is currently subject to the jurisdiction of the Southern District of New York and is being prosecuted on the following docket and case number: 1:20-cr-00330-AJN-1. In order to help to determine my status to assess fees, you should know that I am a member of the news media with the legal publication Law&Crime. (See here: lawandcrime.com.) This request is made as part of news gathering and not for a commercial use. Ghislaine Maxwell’s case is a matter of great national importance considering her involvement in the broader Jeffrey Epstein scandal. The overarching scandal has, for years, touched upon issues of alleged corruption by local, state and federal officials and has reportedly involved serial governmental incompetence. Furthermore, Maxwell’s case is rumored to implicate several figures at the highest reaches of American government. The Freedom of Information Act would be well-served by release of this inmate’s mugshot. Finally, a similarly situated inmate, Jeffrey Epstein himself, had his mugshot released when he was taken into federal custody by authorities in New York State. Fairness and precedent suggest that Ghislaine Maxwell’s mugshot be treated the same way as her alleged accomplice.¶
