Former Jeffrey Epstein companion (& *Bubba's girlfriend) Ghislaine Maxwell seeks to keep court records under seal
ABC 'News' ^ | 6/11/20 | James Hill

Attorneys for Ghislaine Maxwell, the former companion of deceased sex-offender Jeffrey Epstein, are asking a federal judge to keep a batch of court records under seal, arguing that public interest in the documents is outweighed by privacy considerations and the potential impact a release of the documents could have on an ongoing criminal investigation into alleged accomplices of Epstein.

"Ms. Maxwell ... is aware that investigations surrounding the alleged conduct of Mr. Epstein survive his death. It is unclear who are witnesses or targets of any investigation," Maxwell's attorney, Jeffrey Pagliuca, wrote Wednesday in a filing objecting to unsealing certain documents. "The sealed testimony or summaries may inappropriately influence potential witnesses or alleged victims."

The sealed court filings in the case -- a now-settled civil defamation lawsuit filed against Maxwell in 2015 by Virginia Roberts Giuffre -- are said to contain the names of hundreds of people, some famous and some not, who socialized, traveled or worked with Epstein over the span of more than a decade. The late financier has previously been linked to a coterie of high-profile business leaders, scientists, royalty and politicians.

If the judge decides to keep the records sealed, then you know he has been either bought or involved. Or both.

Some here may be familiar with a case from about a year ago of a woman living in a very wealthy Connecticut town (suburb of NYC) who disappeared during a nasty child custody fight.All signs led to the ex husband (video,DNA,etc) but he got bail and committed suicide before trial.Yet two people suspected of being accessories are still being prosecuted.

This Epstein thing seems pretty similar.In cases like these the defendant(s) can claim "but it was all done by the dead guy".

Ghislaine was Bill’s girlfriend? As a cover for other fun he was having on Pedo Isle, maybe.

A baby seal walks into a bar and sits down. “What can I get you?” asked the bartender.
“Anything but a Canadian Club” replied the seal.

None of this is being done by Ghislaine, but by her "lawyers".

As far as we know she is resting comfortably in a 2x6 foot box under 6 ft of dirt.

Maxwell popped up in public some where?

Is there proof of life?

Only reason the Clinton family was on Lolita flights, Pedo Island, and that very strange place in New Mexico you can only fly into, we are led to believe, is because Bubba had a love interest with Ghislaine Maxwell. Yeah, right. Whatever happened to the “Energizer Bunny” as the SS like to call her?

" ...that very strange place in New Mexico you can only fly into... "

Are you referring to Epstein's NM "Zorro Ranch"? If so, it is also accessible via road -- and the landing strip is rather rudimentary.

(I've done rather extensive OHI (OverHeadImagery) analysis of the ranch and environs; and can back up the above statement with imagery & maps.)

If it would help the Democrats, sealing the records wouldn't do any good.

Two “alleges” in the first two sentences tags the column as poorly written and researched. Not worth the time.
