Ghislaine Maxwell will remain in a New York jail
3 June 2021
A federal appeals court has rejected the British socialite's latest request for bail.
Her request for a hearing on what her lawyers call "horrific" confinement conditions at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, has also been denied.
The 59-year-old faces up to 80 years in prison if convicted over her alleged role in procuring four underage girls for the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein to sexually abuse between 1994 and 2004.
She's pleaded not guilty to sex trafficking and other charges - her trial's set down for November.
