You can take the girl out of high society but you can’t take the high society out of the girl — even if you throw her in a Tallahassee prison. According to a report in the Daily Mail, convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has filed a whopping 400 complaints since arriving at the federal prison in July.
“Max is the prison Karen. She can file a grievance over anything — she has over 400 of them,” a source told the Mail. “She complains about the food, the bedding, when they cancel temple because of bad weather or are late setting up her legal calls.”
It was also reported that the prison’s vegan menu was “insufficient” for Maxwell’s needs. As well as the food, she demanded that authorities replace her bedding with hypoallergenic pillows, a request that was granted, and was also angered over the lack of access to black hair dye she wanted for an interview with the BBC. According to the same source, she ended up giving $200 to another inmate for the dye.
According to reports, Ghislaine Maxwell has made some enemies in FCI Tallahassee. One story claims that she nearly came to blows with a fellow inmate in the laundry room, after she demanded Maxwell return her temporary shoes.
“That caused a big argument — and Max complained that she felt threatened and refused to go back to the laundry unaccompanied,” the source said. “That’s her in a nutshell. Every aspect of prison life offers an opportunity for her to play the victim. She creates constant drama for staff and inmates alike.”
The guards have supposedly retaliated by canceling a bunch of courses Maxwell teaches about social media marketing and etiquette.
Maxwell was sentenced to twenty years’ imprisonment in 2022, meaning she will be behind bars until the early 2040s. Cockburn hopes that’s enough time for her to adapt to her new environs — the days will pass even more slowly otherwise…
