Ghislaine Maxwell proposes $US28.5 million bail package

New York: Ghislaine Maxwell, the British socialite facing criminal charges she helped procure girls for the late financier Jeffrey Epstein to sexually abuse, has renewed her request for bail and is proposing a $US28.5 million ($37 million) bail package, a court filing on Monday, local time, shows.

Maxwell, 58, has been housed since July at the Metropolitan Detention Centre in Brooklyn. US District Judge Alison Nathan denied Maxwell's earlier bail request on July 14, and will consider her renewed bail application.
