..."On Remand" appears to be Brit-speak for "in custody". That the trial is to begin
tomorrow, Monday, November 15, 2021 is indeed current news but much of the rest
of what's presented here is old news.

"Ghislaine Maxwell is to emerge from her New York prison cell on Monday after a 15-month wait for the start of a trial for sex trafficking children, perjury and the enticement of minors while she was a close associate of the late financier Jeffrey Epstein.
The 59-year-old, the youngest child of the British newspaper magnate Robert Maxwell, has been held on remand in a Brooklyn detention centre since shortly after her arrest in July 2020.
During lengthy jury selection procedures, international interest will focus on two key issues: first, the likelihood that Maxwell and her lawyers will offer up details of prominent names implicated in the case, including Prince Andrews, and second, the alleged poor state of the defendants health.
Maxwells elder brother, Ian, a British businessman and thinktank founder, alleges his sisters incarceration, under 24-hour surveillance in a cell measuring just 9ft by 6ft, amounts to excessive cruelty. She has slept on a concrete bed beside a toilet and has had no access to natural light."
