Bondi Lies To Congress, Tells Them Maxwell Was Not Transferred To A 'Lower-Level Facility'
Source: Huffington Post
Bondis answer came in response to a question from Deborah Ross, a Democratic committee member from North Carolina, who asked her: Does a convicted sex offender like Ghislaine Maxwell deserve special treatment in prison and special privileges in prison? Bondi answered: I did not know she was being transferred, and she was not transferred to a lower-level facility.
Later, she repeated twice, falsely, that Maxwell was transferred to a same level prison.
It is unclear how Bondi could not know about the transfer, given that the Bureau of Prisons comes under her agencys purview, and her same level assertion is demonstrably false. Even in a low-security prison like Tallahassee Federal Correctional Institution, inmates sleep in prison cells behind tall, razor-topped fencing. There is a section at Bryan with no fence at all, and inmates there sleep in dormitories.Maxwell herself told a relative after her middle-of-the-night transfer that she was overjoyed with her new home.
The food is legions better, the place is clean, the staff responsive and polite I havent seen or heard the usual foul language or screaming accompanied by threats leveled at inmates by anyone, she wrote a week after her arrival. I feel like I have dropped through Alice in Wonderlands looking glass. I am much, much happier here and more importantly safe.

And that was certainly not the only lie she told. Another whopper she hurled was that there was no evidence in the files that Trump committed a crime (at which point Representative Ted Lieu put up a witness statement from the Epstein files about Trump raping a girl: https://youtube.com/shorts/HXC3qTcdR3M?si=J-ehUM6HlVyN9vqH).
I realize that she will not face any consequences right now, since Trumps DOJ would never prosecute her. However, the statute of limitations for lying to Congress, generally charged under 18 U.S.C. § 1001 (false statements) or 18 U.S.C. § 1621 (perjury), is five years from the date the false statement was made. This means federal prosecutors must initiate charges within this five-year period.
2029 is coming.

(107 posts)Maxwell needs to die in prison. And the rest of the garbage needs to be exposed too, whether it's a Democrat, Republican, Independent, billionaire, millionaire or hundredaire. This pedophile/blackmail ring was global and now I'm finding more and more stories about murders, torture, and even worse.

I imagine there'll be a lottery of the girls, their husbands and relatives just thrilled to want to visit with her.
And she's an immigrant - born in France, naturalized U,S, Citizen and keeps dual French and British citizenship.
Hey ICE...$50 grand.

MAGAts are always going on about the DEEP STATE - well, this is it, a world where the DOJ covers for DEPRAVITY as long as it involves THE MONEYED CLASS

(9,392 posts)Not only did she lie about Maxwell being transferred to the "same level" prison, she lied about her part in the transfer. As AG, she is the head of the DOJ. The bureau of Prisons is part of the DOJ. While she might not have been the one to order Maxwell's transfer, she had complete authority (and still does) to reverse that decision. Saying she disagreed with the transfer is 100% obvious bullshit.

(74 posts)That "performance" of hers in Congress today was one of the most disgraceful things I've ever seen. The fact that people like her are running (ruining?) this country makes me sick.
