In this letter, I address her current mental state and risk of flight in light of an pending bail application. I have met with Ms. Maxwell on numerous (14) occasions, from October 2020 to the present via telephone interview, video teleconference, and one in-person meeting at Metropolitan Detention Center (MDC) on April 22, 2021. During those meetings, I reviewed her personal, social, educational, vocational, and psychiatric histories. I performed a mental status examination to assess her intelligence, thought processes, cognitive functioning, memory, credibility, orientation, judgment, insight, and impulse control. I reviewed numerous legal correspondences between Ms. Maxwell’s legal counsel, MDC legal, and the Honorable Alison J. Nathan. Additionally, I conducted a collateral interview with Ms. Leah Saffian, part of Ms. Maxwell’s legal counsel and a longtime acquaintance, on July 16, 2021, to gain insight into Ms. Maxwell’s current level of functioning. The limits of confidentiality inherent to such an evaluation were explained to Mr. Maxwell.
