Ghislaine Maxwell didn’t convict herself.

Or did she?

“Now she needs to name names to get lower jail time.”

If a deal is going to happen it happens before the trial.

“Bill and I were shocked and saddened to hear about Ghislaine’s suicide next Wednesday (prior to her lawyers meeting with prosecutors to discuss a sentencing deal in exchange for information).”

What are the possible sentences for the actual charges

Can’t say I’ve followed it much since I figured she’d walk

Yes so tragic.

How could it have happened?

A committee must be formed to make sure it never happens again.

Will they let her talk?

Better name names quickly.

The “press” would try to avoid it.

She’ll have to. Before they bury her in a dark hole somewhere.

Or before they bury HER.

You know she knows... too much.

So is the trial over when the jury guilty Guilty/not guilty verdict is in, or when the sentencing is done?

It’s possible that here deal is to stay silent and server her sentence. In return she keeps her life.

It was sham trial designed to protect all the “Clients”. All of her worst crimes were covered up along with the evidence that would have shocked the world. There is a reason that Epstein didn’t kill himself.
