Notable Quotes 2
"MDC legal counsel confirmed that staff absolutely cannot see Ms. Maxwell when she showers and do not record her when she showers. They indicated that Ms. Maxwell has two shower curtains that cover her when she showers such that only her feet are visible when she is in the shower."
"MDC legal counsel confirmed that Ms. Maxwell's cell is searched no more than once per day during weekdays only. They further confirmed that the searchers make reasonable efforts to replace any moved items where they were originally located (in other words, the searches do not include a "toss" of the cell). They also confirmed that staff do not read any of Ms. Maxwell's legal papers."
