The Monstrous Crimes of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffery Epstein
As the sordid tale of human trafficking grows even deeper, we are left wondering how it went on so long without anyone noticing…or stopping it.
As of Monday, federal prosecutors have filed two additional counts of sex trafficking conspiracy and sex trafficking of a minor against British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell. The rewritten indictment alleges, among other things, that the former-associate and rumored ex-girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein recruited and groomed a 14-year-old girl to engage in sex acts with Epstein in 2004.
“The rewritten indictment added a sex trafficking conspiracy and a sex trafficking charge against Maxwell. It also added a fourth girl to the allegations, saying she was sexually abused multiple times by Epstein between 2001 and 2004 at his Palm Beach, Florida, residence, beginning when she was 14 years old,” reports the Associated Press.
Prosecutors allege Maxwell and Epstein recruited the underage girl to perform “sexualized massages” at Epstein’s Palm Beach residence.
According to the indictment, the underage girl brought multiple women and girls to provide erotic massages for Mr. Epstein. Both she and the people she recruited were allegedly paid hundreds of dollars in cash for each encounter.
