Guilty: Ghislaine Maxwell faces life in jail for sex trafficking – BBC News
Ghislaine Maxwell has been found guilty of recruiting and trafficking young girls to be sexually abused by the late American financier Jeffrey Epstein.
The 60-year-old was found guilty on five of the six counts she faced – including the most serious charge, that of sex trafficking a minor.
The verdict was reached after five full days of deliberation by a 12-person jury in New York.
It means the British socialite could spend the rest of her life behind bars.
The verdict followed a month-long trial that featured testimony from four women who described being abused by Epstein between 1994 and 2004.

Iran and the United States have carried out on the biggest exchange of attacks since July, stoking fears of a return to all out war.
Iran said 18 people were killed and more than 100 injured in latest US bombardment. It accused the US of committing a war crime by striking a wedding in the city of Kuhestak, killing four people including two children. The Pentagon responded by saying it does not target civilians.
In retaliation, Iran launched a wave of strikes against American targets in the region, including in Kuwait, Jordan, Iraq and Bahrain.
President Trump is warning that the US is prepared to carry out further strikes in response to those attacks.
There are warnings of a serious impact on the global economy, with further disruption to oil and gas supplies, affecting inflation and global borrowing costs.

Her Dad was A Czech Jew named changer talking about sudo names. Maxwell is her inherited cover name, to blend in, given by her fraudster and spy farther. Her Mum was French nothing British about her too, as if we don't have enough with the insult of Jimmy Saville actually descending from here. SHE IS NO BRITON as there is no BRITISH blood in her veins

This is BS, She is a predator and a sex fiend, life in jail is too good for this piece of shit, but once She gets sentenced to life, she will sing like a canary, She will bring down all of the socialites whom partook in these horrible child rapes, Maxwell is a filthy Human Being, to orchestrate the abuse of innocent girls is a horrific crime, a lot of these girls were very young and now carry there own life sentences, May God be good to these Girls, May he cherish guide and guard them for the rest of there lives. They may have been the victims but there courage has made them the VICTORS.

“From late 1988, when the Franklin case first broke into public view, until mid-1991, at least 15 people associated with the case as investigators, alleged perpetrators, or potential witnesses, died sudden deaths, many of them violent.”

Conspiracy of Silence is a documentary which was originally listed for viewing in TV Guide Magazine, and was to be aired on the Discovery Channel on May 3, 1994.
This documentary exposed a network of religious leaders and Washington politicians who flew children to Washington D.C. for sex orgies. Many children suffered the indignity of wearing nothing but their underwear and a number displayed on a piece of cardboard hanging from their necks when being auctioned off to foreigners in Las Vegas, Nevada and Toronto, Canada.
At the last minute before airing, unknown congressmen threatened the TV Cable industry with restrictive legislation if this documentary was aired. Almost immediately, the rights to the documentary were purchased by unknown persons who had ordered all copies destroyed.
A copy of this videotape was furnished anonymously to former Nebraska state senator and attorney John De Camp who made it available to retired FBI Agent Ted L. Gunderson. While the video quality is not top grade, this tape is a blockbuster in what is revealed by the participants involved.

This woman is a devil. Ghislaine Maxwell has destroyed many innocent women when they were underage . Being a woman, she has done unforgivable cruelty to many women . She must rot in jail. I feel like giving her a tight slap. Many disgusting men of power are involved in this dirty crime. Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, Prince Andrew etc. Now they are saying that they don't know that disgusting Epstein well.

There is always much more to it. Gislaine's dad was a questionable person and she may have been a victim of his from childhood herself. Epstein threatened her and she was basically his slave. She could not get away from him. This man was a gangster in his own brutal way. She was probably a mind controlled victim of perverts herself, from childhood.
