Ghislaine Maxwell appeals bail rejection in sex abuse case
The British socialite awaiting trial on charges that she recruited girls in the 1990s for Jeffrey Epstein to sexually abuse is appealing a judge’s order that she remain jailed.
Lawyers for Ghislaine Maxwell notified a trial judge Monday of plans to appeal her decision two weeks ago to reject a $28.5 million bail package for Maxwell.
The notice of appeal was posted publicly on Tuesday in the Manhattan federal court record.
