Supreme Court rejects Ghislaine Maxwell’s appeal of her sex trafficking conviction

The Supreme Court on Monday rejected an appeal from Ghislaine Maxwell, the imprisoned former girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein.

On the first day of their new term, the justices declined to take up a case that would have drawn renewed attention to the sordid sexual-abuse saga after President Donald Trump’s administration sought to tamp down criticism over its refusal to publicly release more investigative files from Epstein’s case.

Lawyers for Maxwell, a British socialite, argued that she never should have been tried or convicted for her role in luring teenage girls to be sexually abused by Epstein, a New York financier. She is serving a 20-year prison term, though she was moved from a low-security federal prison in Florida to a minimum-security prison camp in Texas after she was interviewed in July by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.

As is their custom, the justices did not explain why they turned away the appeal.

Why would SCOTUS take a sex trafficking case?

Maxwell’s pardon would be a bad move IMHO.

I remember that the evidence against here was pretty damning, so I think she needs to do the time.

since this is the end of this maybe it will allow for release of Epstein material involved in this ongoing litigation...

If it could hurt president Trump it would have been released about this time a year ago.
There are powerful people and entities/states blocking release of evidence of degeneracy, blackmail and similar evils.
If it is released it will be heavily redacted, and the mushroom treatment will continue.

She was a partner in Epstein’s lust drunk insanity.

All have sinned last time I checked the Feminists want to blame men all the time.

This has "far reaching" political implications which the average citizen is UNAWARE of.

My OPINION: I'm fairly certain that the "Deep State" has much more influence on the Supreme Court than most citizens realize.
