ATLANTA, GEORGIA  Epstein survivor Annie Farmer said she was "disgusted" after learning about the special treatment Ghislaine Maxwell is receiving at the minimum-security federal prison camp in Bryan, Texas, where she was transferred.

Farmer's interview with Kaitlan Collins and subsequent reports indicate that Maxwell enjoys exemptions from standard prison rules, including perks not granted to other inmates.

Annie Farmer disgusted over special treatment of Ghislaine Maxwell

Farmer’s reaction to the news was one of outrage. To Collins’ question, "When you hear that Ghislaine Maxwell is getting special treatment, what goes through your mind?" Farmer responded, "Thank you, Kaitlan, for having me back. Honestly, I’m disgusted, and I think many Americans feel that way. The question that comes to mind is why."

She speculated that Maxwell might be leveraging connections: "It’s hard to know why this would happen unless there’s someone she knows or something she knows that is enabling this special treatment."

Reported privileges include unlimited toilet paper, whereas the standard inmate allowance is two rolls per week, which a prison consultant described as "hoarded" due to scarcity. Maxwell is also allowed to largely isolate from the general population, with furniture rearranged to prevent other inmates from seeing into her cell, and meals and mail delivered directly to her.

Additional perks reportedly extend to guest arrangements, including private use of a chaplain’s office outside normal visitation hours.

Inmates asked to remain silenced about Maxwell upon her arrival 

Reports suggest retaliation against inmates who questioned Maxwell’s privileges. After her arrival, the warden held a town hall-style meeting warning inmates not to speak about her.

Julie Howell, a non-violent offender, said she was "absolutely disgusted she’s in this facility" given her violent crime record. Days later, Howell was transferred to a higher-security prison in Houston. A Trump administration official later justified the move, citing Maxwell’s safety due to potential threats.

A whistleblower informed House Democrats that Maxwell is working on a "commutation application" reviewed by the Trump administration, with the warden assisting in copying, printing, and mailing documents. This followed a two-day interview with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, in which Maxwell reportedly offered favorable testimony about the President. Victims like Annie Farmer have urged the court to "permanently close the door on any pardon or commutation for Maxwell."



Alleged special treatment led to House Democrats inquiry

Representative Jamie Raskin, ranking member on the House Judiciary Committee, cited whistleblower claims detailing "favorable concierge-style treatment," including customized meals delivered to Maxwell’s cell and permission to play with a service dog.

Raskin said the warden arranged private meetings with visitors and even helped Maxwell review documents. He called the privileges "preposterous" and urged the President to deny Maxwell’s commutation request, adding, "Your Administration should not provide her room service, puppies to play with, federal officials attending to every need, or any institutional privilege."
