How is Ghislaine Maxwell's Christmas?

One of the many things on the long list of things I don't understand is the bail principle in the United States. If you have an army of lawyers and deal in six or seven zeros, the chances are great that, no matter what you've done, you won't have to hunker down in an orange jumpsuit in a two-by-two room, but perhaps just stay in a suite.

Okay, you have to wear an ankle monitor and you have to bear the costs for surveillance that is present 24 hours a day to see what you're up to.

In the case of Ghislaine Maxwell, the bail amount is 28 million. It seems that she and her husband already have 22 million available. The last six will undoubtedly be shocked by a wealthy friend who is very keen to ensure that the Maxwell-Epstein cesspool doesn't open up even further.

Maxwell's lawyers complain that poor Ghislaine has lost weight and is experiencing hair loss, and that it is therefore unbearable for her to be in jail in Brooklyn. Well, girl, maybe you should have thought about that beforehand. But we shouldn't be surprised if Maxwell is ‘released’ on bail later.

You can run, but you can’t hide. And I’ll just conclude in style: karma is a bitch, Ghislaine. Just like you.
