Ghislaine Maxwell ‘starving’ as food and medicine cut off at hellhole prison

Ghislaine Maxwell spent Thanksgiving “starving” in a Florida jail due to lack of food.

Sources told DailyMail.com that the convicted madam and other inmates at FCI Tallahassee in Florida are “going hungry” because of the lack of food. “This has been going on since last week. The inmates have been told the Bureau of Prisons has run out of money and Ghislaine and the others have been left starving,” one source said.

“Portion sizes have been cut from 8oz to 2oz and Ghislaine hasn’t had food for five days,” the source continued. “The prison says it can’t afford to buy the vegetarian diet plan she is on. She and the others are going hungry.”

Not only are the prisoners going hungry, but they are lacking basics like medication due to lack of funds, the DailyMail reported. “The prisoners who need medication, everything from chemotherapy drugs to blood pressure medication, were pulled to one side and told there isn’t money for the drugs,” another source said, adding: “It’s insane.”

Maxwell, 62, is currently serving a 20-year sentence for child sex trafficking. The former socialite helped sexually abuse multiple minor girls alongside ex-boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein, who died in jail back in 2019 after being arrested on multiple child sex charges.

Just this week the 62-year-old lost the latest round of her appeal against her December 2021 conviction. Maxwell has always maintained her innocence, and her lawyers are planning to appeal her case all the way to the US Supreme Court.

FCI Tallahassee has a history of poor conditions. A Department of Justice report from last year said they prison was found to have moldy food, rat droppings and rotten vegetables.

Prison inspectors described conditions as “alarming” with prisoners resorting to using feminine hygiene products to plug leaks in ceilings and windows. “We observed moldy bread being served as well as discolored and rotting vegetables in a food preparation refrigerator at the female prison. In the food storage warehouses, we found likely evidence of rodent droppings, as well as bags of cereal with insects in them and warped food containers,” the 49-page December 2023 report said.

“We also found that female housing unit roofs routinely leak and that all five general population housing unit roofs need to be replaced,” the report continued. “Many female inmates live in housing units in which water frequently leaks from ceilings and windows on or near their living spaces.”
