The family members of a prominent survivor of Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse said they were outraged by the Justice Departments decision to release transcripts from Ghislaine Maxwell's testimony last month to a federal prosecutor, arguing it provided Maxwell a platform to rewrite history."
The content of these transcripts is in direct contradiction with felon Ghislaine Maxwells conviction for child sex trafficking, the family of Virginia Roberts Giuffre said in a statement. The family added, This travesty of justice entirely invalidates the experiences of the many brave survivors who put their safety, security, and lives on the line to ensure her conviction, including our sister ...
Giuffre accused Maxwell of grooming her to be sexually abused by Epstein and trafficked to several of his powerful friends, including Prince Andrew, Duke of York. Giuffre separately sued Andrew in 2021 for sexually abusing her as a minor, an allegation he has denied. The two later settled the case for an undisclosed amount in 2022 ...

(7,195 posts)Maxwell says . . . it wasn't so bad, no grooming, just being sociable.
No Princes or important people visited the island, all normal, nothing to see here.

Next minnit . . . Jeffrey gets a posthumous pardon, Maxwell gets released, Trump smiles, Prince Andrew and a lot of others breathe a sigh of relief.
Trump gets a few 'well done!' cards in the mail. Unsigned, but he will know who they are from.
