The First Encounter in Isolation
Kathryn Comolli will never forget the first time she saw Ghislaine Maxwell. The convicted sex trafficker stood in an orange jumpsuit and flip flops, hands cuffed behind her back, flanked by guards. Her head was down, her face tense. She had just been strip-searched. Inmates jeered: “Here comes Maxwell, that big money b**ch.” Maxwell ignored them. Comolli says that’s how she survived—keeping to herself.
Maxwell was in the isolation unit as punishment for speaking to the media. Her one forbidden interview had aired on Talk TV, where she claimed she wished she’d “never met” Jeffrey Epstein. Comolli, serving six years for methamphetamine charges, was herself in isolation after being caught with a phone. The two women would soon share the same dorm.
Life in the B South Dorm
B South held 140 inmates in cramped, horseshoe-shaped cubes with no privacy. Four toilets served them all, often blocked for weeks. When rain poured, inmates stuffed sanitary pads in ceiling cracks to keep dry. Most prisoners watched TV or played cards, but Maxwell spent hours reading in her bunk. She refused to let anyone wash her clothes, cleaned her own cubicle, and slept under special white hospital blankets due to an alleged dye allergy.
Comolli recalls Maxwell kept her distance—except for one bold admission.
The Claim: Epstein Dirt on Trump
Among inmates, Comolli says it was “common knowledge” Maxwell didn’t plan to serve her full sentence. Instead, she allegedly hoped to secure a presidential pardon from Joe Biden by offering damaging information about Donald Trump before the 2024 election. “I heard her tell another inmate she had dirt on Trump,” Comolli insists. “Biden’s camp just didn’t want to go there.”
Maxwell was later moved to Camp Bryan, a minimum-security “country club” prison in Texas, after death threats in Tallahassee. The transfer came shortly after she met with Deputy US Attorney General Todd Blanche—fueling speculation of a deal.
From Beans and Rice to Private Phones
Prison meals were grim—frozen pancakes for breakfast, stale bread for lunch, and beans for dinner. Inmates improvised “prison soup” from noodles, chips, and cheese. Maxwell never joined in. She had other privileges: daily access to a private meeting room with an unrecorded phone line for her lawyer, stacks of fan mail, and a solo cubicle in the “honor dorm.”
She worked in the law library, helped inmates with legal filings, and ran daily laps in the yard—up to five miles. Comolli joined her yoga and Pilates classes. Maxwell was in top shape but avoided showers and never left personal items unattended, even taking her hair trimmings with her.
Tension Behind Prison Walls
While some inmates called her the “p*ssy peddler” behind her back, Comolli says Maxwell was never openly disrespected. The real tension came from perceived special treatment—her transfer to Camp Bryan sparked fury among other sex offenders, who claimed it broke federal guidelines.
“Anytime she’s on the news, inmates boo and throw things at the TV,” Comolli says. “They think she’s getting away with something.”
A Calculated Distance
Maxwell never begged favors or got close to anyone. She befriended one doctor inmate but mostly kept interactions minimal. Policed guards by filing grievances, earning their resentment but also their caution. “She knew the rulebook inside out,” Comolli says. “They knew not to mess with her.”
Their final conversation was in the law library, where Maxwell offered advice on a Freedom of Information request. It was brief—like most of their exchanges. For Comolli, Maxwell’s prison life was defined by strategy, self-preservation, and a mystery that still lingers.
The Outlook: Secrets That Won’t Stay Buried
Maxwell’s move to a cushy Texas facility and her alleged claim of holding Epstein dirt on Trump will keep conspiracy whispers alive. Whether she truly has the information—or whether it’s another calculated bluff—remains to be seen. But inside prison walls, her name still sparks tension, resentment, and curiosity. And outside, the question hangs in the air: if she knows something, when will she use it?
