A U.S. judge said he will probably decide on Thursday whether Jeffrey Epstein should be released on bail.
Epstein is the American financier charged with sex trafficking underage girls.
He is petitioning to be allowed to await trial under house arrest at his Manhattan mansion.
Epstein has pleaded not guilty and is being held behind bars at the Metropolitan Correctional Center.
The Metropolitan Correctional Center is a fortress-like jail in lower Manhattan.
