As grotesque Ghislaine Maxwell is deservedly denied bail, PR peddler Brian Basham bizarrely drones on about China and “show trials” whilst author Don Winslow references the pressure now placed on Donald Trump
Unsurprisingly denied bail in spite of offering up £21.1 million ($28.5 million, €23.2 million or درهم104.7 million) due to prosecutors highlighting her deviousness over her is-it-still-on-is-it-off marriage to Scott Borgerson and definite flight risk status, Ghislaine Maxwell’s groaning about her “oppressive” jail conditions deservedly also fell on deaf ears.
Illustrating ‘Bouncing Bob’s’ deviant daughter was actually subject to “conditions [that] set her apart from general population inmates, not to mention other inmates in protective custody,” the New York Times reported that federal prosecutors “contended Ms. Maxwell didn’t have it so bad.”
Rather than being left to face rats, as the grotesque grubber has groaned, they added: “She is released from her cell for 13 hours a day. She has her own shower, her own phone and exclusive use of two computers – even her own TV.”
In response, as per usual, the somewhat sympathetic DailyMail.com – an operation controlled by one-time Maxwell associate Geordie Greig – gave the mucky madam’s PR peddler and coordinator of ‘Operation Get Ghislaine Out’ Brian Basham space to drone on about the “injustice” of the decision. Predictably, he went into a diatribe on her behalf and ranted:
“It’s grotesque and against the laws of natural justice. It’s just wrong to deny somebody the chance to properly prepare for their defense.”
“She’s going to be locked up in prison for months now. The judge has given in to the lynch mob, that’s what this is.”
“Ghislaine will be devastated. Her birthday was on Christmas Day and she was hoping to be out by then to be with her family.”
“This seems like a show trial, it’s ridiculous. I hesitate to draw comparisons with China but that’s how it feels.”
Elsewhere on Twitter last night, award-winning crime and mystery novelist Don Winslow told his 557,500 followers:
“A judge rejected Ghislaine Maxwell’s $28.5 million bail package today.”
“This puts A LOT of pressure on Donald Trump as January 20th approaches.”
“Maxwell has receipts. Lots and lots of receipts.”
“Watch this case closely.”
