GHISLAINE MAXWELL,
Defendant.
Docket No. 20-CR-330 (MN)
AFFIDAVIT AND WAIVER OF
EXTRADITION
Ghislaine Maxwell, being duly sworn, deposes and says:
I.
I am the named defendant in the above-captioned case. I am a citizen of the
United States, the United Kingdom, and France. I have resided in the United States since
approximately 1991. I am currently incarcerated at the Metropolitan Detention Center in
Brooklyn, New York.
2.
I have reviewed with my counsel, Mark S. Cohen and Christian R. Everdell of
Cohen & Gresser, LLP, the charges contained in the superseding indictment in the above-
captioned case (the "Indictment"). In addition, I have been informed by United States and
United Kingdom counsel, with whom I am satisfied, of my rights under the United Kingdom's
Extradition Act 2003 (the "Act"), which gives effect to the Extradition Treaty between the
Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the Government
of the United States of America (the "Treaty"). I understand that, in proceedings in the United
Kingdom under the Act in respect of an extradition request by the United States under the Treaty
in connection with the Indictment, I would be entitled to argue that I should not be extradited to
the United States. I understand that in the absence of my consent to extradition, I cannot be
EFTA00065568
surrendered to the United States authorities unless and until a court in the United Kingdom issues
a ruling finding that there are no bars to my extradition.
3.
If I am released on bail in connection with the Indictment, I hereby voluntarily
and irrevocably waive any rights to contest any extradition request by the United States under the
Treaty with respect to the offenses charged in the Indictment. Specifically, I consent to
extradition pursuant to Part 2 sections 127 and 128 of the Act in connection with the offenses
charged in the Indictment. In addition, to the extent that it might be relevant, I waive any rights
to assert that any bars to extradition apply, and I confirm that no such bars apply.
4.
In the event that I violate my bail conditions after being released, I understand
that the purpose of this affidavit is for the government to offer it to the authorities in the United
Kingdom when my extradition is sought by the United States government in relation to the
charges in the Indictment. I understand that the United Kingdom authorities may use this
affidavit to assist in determining my extraditability.
5.
I make this waiver freely and voluntarily, after having consulted with counsel.
Dated this
day of December 2020.
Ghislaine Maxwell
I hereby certify that on this
day of December 2020, Ghislaine Maxwell personally appeared
before me and made his oath in due form of law that the statements herein are true.
