Representative lawyer Ghislaine Maxwell Tell Fox News Digital that he likes to “represent the loser” as he tries to ensure the freedom of Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplices.
Maxwell recently transferred from federal prison facility Tallahassee, FloridaHer attorney previously told Fox News Numbers to the federal prison camp in Brian, Texas. Neither Maxwell’s lawyer nor the prison bureau gave a reason for the move.
Maxwell’s attorney David Oscar Markus told Fox News in a telephone interview Friday that “people shouldn’t judge and throw stones so quickly” as federal officials face criticism of his clients moving to a minimum-safe prison camp.
“I wish I could respond to all critics on merits. We are not commenting on the case right now for obvious reasons,” Marcus said in the interview. “But I will have a lot to say when I can.”

Maxwell is currently sentenced to 20 years in prison for participating in Epstein’s sexual offence.
Senior Administrative Official “It is ridiculous to any false assertion that this person is treated with priority. In some cases, prisoners are usually imprisoned due to serious safety and danger issues.”
“I love my job,” Marcus said. “I like representing losers. You know, being a criminal defense attorney is not for everyone, but it’s one of the most meaningful, great jobs, and I really like what I do.

Among Markus’ former clients are former Tallahassee, Florida Mayor Andrew Gillum, who beat Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in the 2018 gubernatorial election, no more than 34,000 votes. Prosecutors claim he took the campaign cash away and took illegal gifts, and Girum faces federal corruption charges.
Federal prosecutors dismissed the corruption charge after one charge is acquitted, and the jury holds the remaining charges.

“He was very smart, dedicated, enthusiastic, passionate, experience and modest. He seemed to know what many high-profile lawyers didn’t have, and it wasn’t his ego,” Eglash said. “He didn’t shy away from the challenge. Boy, he faced the challenge here. It would be extremely challenging to have the Supreme Court take this case at all. But then, zealously argued and effectively got them to accept this case and his point of view, he was probably one of the only lawyers in the few attorneys who could solve this problem.”
