NEW YORK: Jeffrey Epstein s former girlfriend claimed through her lawyer Tuesday that a guard physically abused her at a federal lockup in Brooklyn, and then she was punished for complaining about it. Attorney Bobbi Sternheim wrote in a letter to a Manhattan federal judge that the abuse occurred recently at the Metropolitan Detention Center as Ghislaine Maxwell was undergoing a pat down search in her isolation cell. The lawyer said the British socialite asked that a camera be used to capture what was occurring, but a guard replied no. When Ms. Maxwell recoiled in pain and when she said she would report the mistreatment, she was threatened with disciplinary action, Sternheim said.
