To me it's no mystery at all, but my opinion doesn't matter as much as the former State Attorney for Palm Beach County, FL Dave Aaronburg. As he said just now on CNN, this comes after Maxwell met one on one with trump's lawyer. He confirmed that the TX prison is much nicer and lower security, He said it looks like Maxwell gave them what they wanted and was rewarded.

She showed Todd Blanche a small tidbit of what she has on Traitor and is being positioned for a pardon.

(447 posts)She has enough evidence that she has placed in the hands of lawyers in jurisdictions around the globe. It is her "dead man's switch". As long as she lives, that stays hidden away. If she meets an untimely demise, that info goes to reporters and law enforcement around the globe.
I would also point out that some right wing news/online influencers are trying to rehab her image, calling her a victim, etc. That is trying to soften the blow to the part of maga that is up in arms that the files aren't coming out. The are working to limit the losses when that pardon drops.

(2,040 posts)I wasn't aware of any specifics on the facility. Having said that, I would think there would be at least one inmate who holds a grudge against "madame"-types. Lower security plus a grievance could turn out badly for Madame Maxwell.

(25,406 posts)she wanted to talk in a place outside the Florida prison where she's been held, and that's why her lawyer made this demand. Maybe it's just a ploy to get a nicer place to be, or maybe she had some run-ins with the authorities in the Florida prison. As long as she's not free, I don't care where they stick her.

(35,003 posts)Trump knows he can't pardon her or commute her sentence without raising even more suspicions. The same goes for the fake "suicide" route that either offed her partner, or enabled them to sneak him out of prison (which has always been my suspicion.) She knows that, as well. The best he can do right now is find a nicer place to keep her, for now, where she's not going to blab everything out of revenge.

(13,561 posts)Thats why Trumps former personal lawyer, Todd Blanche who is now with the Deputy Attorney General, met with Blackwell privately so he could coach her on what to say. Trump will pardon her in a year or so for her lies exonerating him.

They've found some medical malady that looks like it could be terminal, and after a few months when all this shit dies down, she'll have her sentence commuted on some compassionate grounds crap.
There will be no pardon. That would be a bridge too far for MAGA, but a commutation would just show what a humane man he is, because they would never have that much love in their heart lol.
