Relatives of Jeffrey Epstein’s former lover Ghislaine Maxwell, who goes on trial in the US next week, have complained to the UN that her detention is illegal, lawyers said Monday.
The 59-year-old British socialite could spend the rest of her life in jail if convicted in New York of trafficking underage girls for US financier Epstein, who killed himself in prison more than two years ago.
Human rights lawyers Francois Zimeray and Jessica Finelle, who are not representing Maxwell, said they had filed a complaint with a panel of UN experts on Monday alleging “serious violations of her defence rights and presumption of innocence”.
In the complaint, Maxwell’s siblings said she had been subject to “unfit and degrading treatment”.
Earlier in 2021, Norfolk Police Lieutenant William Kelly was fired from his job at the police department for an innocuous $25 donation he made anonymously to Kyle Rittenhouse’s legal defense fund.
While Kelly is still fighting to be reinstated to his former position, the Daily Wire’s Candace Owens raised north of $245,000 for the fired police lieutenant – presenting him with a large check during her talk show on November 22nd.
Nice lady.
ThanQ, Melian❣️
I had a philosophy of ed professor in under-grad who repeatedly said, “Keep persistence in the purr and the purr in persistence.”
Although I may grow weary of purring, this thread helps me focus on the stakes and The Promise.
