Update (1455ET): MSNBC's Ayman Mohyeldin reports that multiple federal law enforcement officials say that depending on what the judge overseeing today’s detention & removal hearing & the Bureau of Prisons determine, Ghislaine Maxwell could be housed at MCC in New York – the same jail where Jeffrey Epstein killed himself.
“We will be seeking detention,” Acting U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss in Manhattan said in a press conference announcing charges. Prosecutors said Maxwell helped Epstein entice girls as young as 14 into sex from 1994 through 1997, then lied about it under oath in 2016.
As Bloomberg adds, unless the judge in New Hampshire releases her on bail, "Maxwell will either be held overnight in a local jail there or transported immediately back to New York, said Jack Donson, a consultant who formerly worked for the federal Bureau of Prisons. In New York, she would likely be transferred to one of two federal lockups, the Metropolitan Correctional Center in Lower Manhattan or the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn."
Of course, Manhattan’s MCC is where Epstein was found dead in his cell in August after committing "suicide" by hanging himself using his bed sheets. How he was permitted to do so remains a mystery. Two MCC guards are facing charges for falsifying records and failing to check on inmates in the hours before Epstein’s death. Both have pleaded not guilty. In May, the Manhattan jail also faced criticism after a judge-ordered inspection found it was failing to adequately protect inmates from the coronavirus.
Asked if any special precautions will be taken to ensure Maxwell’s safety in custody, Strauss said: "As you know, we are sensitive to that concern and certainly we’ll be in dialogue with the Bureau of Prisons about it."
Which probably means that Ghislaine has days left, if not hours, left to live.
Donson added it was possible federal officials might choose to hold Maxwell elsewhere to avoid press attention. “Maybe they’ll want to get her out of New York entirely,” he said. Wherever she ends up, Maxwell will be evaluated for suicide or other risks, he added.

Has she committed “suicide” yet?
Let's hope they can 'keep' her alive...
She will be out in two weeks. A person born in France with millions in off shore accounts doesn’t hide out in the USA down the street from a politician. Yup, Bernie sanders
RIP
I did not know the clinton's were prison guards.
I hope they can keep her alive to tell things?
I'm sure she will shortly there's no chance for her not too.
Sounds like appropriate justice I hope she opens up on how he died so rumors can be stopped.
11:02: Soon, Soon!!!!
Let's hope she isn't killed...
I can just imagine Bill, Andrew and many others are conspiring right now with corrupt prison guards, DOJ people and other swamp dwellers to make this problem go away.
Just curious but what did she do? Not a single victim has linked her to a crime that I’m aware of.
Where's the safest place she can be kept with a big price on her head?
That was already set up long ago.
I heard she fell down prison steps today
they could not revive her
5:21 - you really didn’t just say that did you? Have you read anything in the news? She has one accused ready to come forward on the stand and several more have joined a class action lawsuit against her. Regarding her crimes, she recruited, and often times took part in the repeated rapes of young girls for a select group of very wealthy, and seriously politically connected figures around the globe. Heck, Heidi Fliesse has nothing on this monster, and if she manages to live until trial and share who “partook” at the private island, a lot of powerful people will be in serious trouble. I personally feel like many on this site that there will be an “accident” to prevent the information getting out.
Do you suppose she will commit "CLINCIDE" to like Epstein did????? I understand she has it already planned and ready to go if something happens to her she has a paper ready for publication.
