Seth Abramson @SethAbramson · 6h Just pointing out an obvious fact: that if Ghislaine Maxwell somehow dies in custody, there'll be the *same level* of recrimination as there was when Jeffrey Epstein died in custody —in other words, *none*. That gives no one anywhere any particular incentive to ensure her safety.
