(Newser) – Jeffrey Epstein’s death is making Ghislaine Maxwell’s jail stay all the harder—or so claim her lawyers. In a Monday night court filing, they say Maxwell has been subject to "uniquely onerous conditions" while at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn, and that it’s clear such treatment "is a reaction to the circumstances surrounding the pretrial detention and death of Mr. Epstein." The one bit of ease she has experienced is an end to suicide watch, during which she was roused from her sleep every few hours at night, reports NBC News.
