Child sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell casually walks to a yoga session in the plush new facility where she is serving a 20-year sentence.

The photographs have enraged her victims – who were already furious at her relocation to the lenient jail nicknamed Camp Cupcake merely three years into her term.

The move violated US prison regulations which stipulate that a sex offender cannot complete their sentence in a minimum-security establishment like Federal Prison Camp Bryan, Texas.

Her relocation from a deteriorating prison in Tallahassee, Florida, occurred just one week after she spoke positively about Donald Trump's infamous friendship with her paedophile former partner Jeffrey Epstein.

One of those violated by the deceased billionaire condemned the British socialite's privileged treatment, reports the Mirror.

"Ghislaine helped destroy so many lives, and now she gets rewarded with a transfer to a country club prison," she said.

"It's a slap in the face to survivors. We've been left with scars that never heal, while she gets to do yoga and tend gardens while serving her time.

"How much time that is now depends on her buddy Trump."

The US leader faces the most serious challenge to his presidency after he broke a campaign pledge to declassify the government's documents on his former associate Epstein.

He now maintains that the papers contain no information and that the furore surrounding them is a hoax.

His U-turn emerged weeks after Elon Musk alleged the President's name featured in the files. Scores of Epstein victims have since stepped forward, supported by millions of Americans including Trump supporters, demanding the release of the files.

The New York financier died in jail while awaiting trial in 2019 and two years on, his former girlfriend was found guilty of aiding him in abusing girls.

Just last month, she faced a gruelling two-day questioning in Tallahassee by Trump's deputy attorney general and ex-personal lawyer Todd Blanche.

Maxwell stated to him: "The president was never inappropriate with anybody. In the times I was with him, he was a gentleman in all respects."

She maintained that Trump and Epstein were merely "friendly in social settings" and emphasised: "I never saw the president in any type of massage setting."

The 63 year old daughter of corrupt tycoon Robert Maxwell is seeking a presidential pardon in hopes of gaining her freedom. Many, including Democrat politicians, perceive her prison transfer as a reward for her remarks.

The first images of Maxwell in her new prison, see her taking morning walks across the well-kept grounds. Over four days, the Mirror observed her walking from her block to her clerical job or to exercise.

She seldom acknowledged another inmate, keeping her head down under her umbrella. Dressed in standard-issue grey prison sweats, she appeared a solitary figure as she meandered off to a yoga class with a rolled-up mat under one arm.

"She never goes anywhere without her umbrella. Even when it's dark, she's got it with her," revealed a prison source. Thanks to Maxwell, Camp Bryan has now become America's most infamous women's jail.

The Texas institution typically accommodates white-collar criminals such as fraudsters and drug offenders serving brief sentences – and provides them with work-release privileges, gardening and dog training. However, since Maxwell's arrival in late July, it has transformed into a fortress.

12ft high screens protect her from public view and heavily armed guards from the elite Special Operation Response Team, or SORT, patrol the area. Equipped with semi-automatic rifles, shotguns and sidearms, these guards are usually only called upon during emergencies like riots or hostage situations.

"Everywhere you go there are guards," stated a lawyer representing inmates. "This isn't Bryan any more. It's lockdown."

One inmate, serving time for drug offences, told her family: "We're all paying for her sins."

Another woman paid a steeper price after passing a comment about Maxwell to the press via her husband.

Within hours, officials pulled Julie Howell, 44, out of a puppy-training class and transferred her to a notorious detention centre in Houston. Her lawyer Patrick McLain raged: "Nobody's going to say anything about Ghislaine Maxwell now, are you kidding?".

The Bureau of Prisons has claimed that Maxwell's transfer was routine but a senior Justice Department official has contested this explanation.

Joseph Schnitt told an undercover reporter on a date that Maxwell's relocation did break federal rules "which means they're offering her something to keep her mouth shut".

Schnitt also claimed that the department planned to redact all Republican names from the Epstein Files, leaving Democrats exposed.

The department said his comments "have absolutely zero bearing with reality".

Schnitt later explained that they were based only on media reports he had seen and not on anything he had learned from his job.

Trump once said of Epstein: "I've known Jeff for 15 years. Terrific guy. He's a lot of fun to be with. It is even said that he likes beautiful women as much as I do, and many of them are on the younger side."

Epstein's death in a Manhattan prison cell aged 66 was ruled suicide by hanging but has been shrouded in conspiracy theories ever since.

Maxwell has been behind bars since July 2020 and was found guilty the following year of recruiting and trafficking young girls for Epstein.

The duo were chums with some of the world's most famous people, including Prince Andrew.

The late Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre alleged she was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew whilst she was 17 at Maxwell's London flat.

Andrew has always vehemently denied any wrongdoing and in 2019 told the BBC he had no recollection of meeting Maxwell.

The Bureau of Prisons did not respond to a request for comment.
