Epstein sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell banned from training service puppies at 'Club Fed': report [View all]

Ghislaine Maxwell, the Jeffrey Epstein accomplice and convicted sex trafficker, has been banned from training service puppies at the prison camp in Texas where she was transferred last week, according to a report.

Maxwell, 63, was sentenced to 20 years behind bars in 2022 for helping Epstein, her former boyfriend, groom underage girls for sex but has recently returned to the spotlight amid the furore over Donald Trump’s administration’s failure to release all federal files on the late pedophile, despite intense pressure from the president’s supporters to do so.

The disgraced British socialite was previously being held in Tallahassee, Florida, but, shortly after sitting for two days of interviews with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, was quietly transferred to Federal Prison Camp Bryan in southeastern Texas on Friday. While her minimum-security new home is known for its comparatively peaceful atmosphere and has been dubbed “Club Fed,” Maxwell will not be allowed to join the institution’s other inmates in helping to train puppies during her stay.

Paige Mazzoni, the chief executive officer of Canine Companions, the organization that runs programs at Bryan, told NBC News that Maxwell would not be invited to participate. “We do not allow anyone whose crime involves abuse towards minors or animals – including any crime of a sexual nature,” Mazzoni said. “That’s a hard policy we have, so she will not be able to.”
