Ghislaine Maxwell sentenced to 20 years in Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case

Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to 20 in prison Tuesday for her role in helping powerful pedophile Jeffrey Epstein abuse young girls, capping off a dramatic fall from grace for the British socialite turned-convicted sex-trafficker.

Maxwell’s sentencing marked the end of the federal criminal proceedings against her in the Southern District of New York, where she was brought after her arrest at a sprawling New Hampshire estate in July 2020.

The 60-year-old heiress — who spent much of her life hobnobbing with the rich and famous — learned her fate months after she was convicted of grooming and trafficking teenagers for Epstein, a wealthy financier and her onetime boyfriend.

Four women testified at her widely-publicized trial in Manhattan federal court — and two of them and several other accusers also addressed the court Tuesday, calling on the judge to lock Maxwell up and throw away the key.

“Maxwell had many opportunities to come clean, but instead continued to make choices that caused more harm,” Annie Farmer, who testified at trial, wrote in a statement filed ahead of the hearing.

Virginia Giuffre Roberts, who has long accused Maxwell and Epstein of trafficking her to Britain’s Prince Andrew, described Maxwell as “like a wolf in sheep’s clothing” in her letter to the court.

“Ghislaine, you deserve to spend the rest of your life in a jail cell,” she wrote. “You deserve to be trapped in a cage forever, just like you trapped your victims.”

Maybe her secret stash of audios/photos/videos of her clients will be posted when Ghislaine dies of anything but old age.

Revenge sentence

If she was a black pimp from the streets of Philly she’d do 1-3 on paper, out in a year.

Congress and the DOJ will block any showing or review.

I bet she wanted to make a deal to name names and get a reduced sentence and the prosecutor did not want to know them.

Time to release all the tapes they no longer give you any leverage.

(Why isn’t she naming names?)

It’s tragic, how once again, the cameras weren’t working and the guards were distracted/asleep/on lunch/in the bathroom when xxxxxxxxx happened.

Epstein and Maxwell, and all their cohort, don’t belong in society. Virginia Giuffre Roberts is a prostitute, and should be with them.

dear mom and dad- where were you, again?
Really. THAT makes me ill. How you let your underage daughter go off with these folks is beyond me.
( if they were underage- mom and pops had to sign their passport)
They can share a cellblock with Ms. Maxwell.

Wow.

For all the women she groomed, ONLY 20 years.

Man, the wimmin card still gets preference, even with a groomer pedophile.
