Ghislaine Maxwell, the former girlfriend of convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein, has been denied bail.
The British socialite is being held at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn, New York.
In a bail application filed with the US District Court in Manhattan, Maxwell said she and her husband would post a $22.5m (£16.5m) bond towards bail, secured by all their assets, with most of the remaining funds coming from friends and family.
However, judge Alison Nathan, who previously denied the 59-year-old bail in July, said she “again concludes that no conditions of release can reasonably assure the defendant’s appearance at future proceedings”.
She was arrested in an FBI raid at her secluded New Hampshire home in July over claims she played a central role in procuring underage girls for Epstein to abuse in the mid-1990s.
Maxwell is due to face trial in July. She denies the charges.
