[Maxwell was convicted on five of the six counts
she was charged with.
She was accused of recruiting and grooming four
teenagers for Epstein between 1994 and 2004.
The trial lasted 13 days, including 10 days for the
prosecution case and two days for the defence,
and heard from 33 witnesses.
The prosecution said Maxwell had recruited teenage girls
and served them up to Epstein on a platter to be abused.]

I hope she is terrorised in prison whilst she rots away her dying days ...

On a side note .... the news clips mention that many of those poor girls were as young as 13 !!!

So where on earth where their parents when the girls were being seduced and flown around the world ... I’m confused on this point

[Niamh.]

I hope they got names from her too, no doubt the richest and most powerful of them will get away with it though

[Vicky.]

Of course.

This is good news but lets not assume those guilty will be punished. Besides her.

I know thats grim but lets be realistic.

[bots]

I don't see her being alive for long in prison and her prison sentence may get a big reduction if she spills the beans so thats got to be her play now. The question is, how quickly can the big names bump her off

[The mystery of Maxwell's millions:
Sex-trafficker socialite claimed she had
'just' £2.6m to her name
when she was arrested last year despite
being wired £22m by Epstein - amid claims she
transferred wealth to tech CEO husband
Forensic accountants believe Ghislaine Maxwell
had a net worth of £15million ($20.2million) in 2015
But she claimed this was down to just £2.6million
by the time she was arrested in New Hampshire in 2020
Maxwell reportedly transferred £15million
to her husband Scott Borgerson after they secretly married
She also allegedly bought and sold multiple
mansions and high-value homes between
2015 and 2020]

She probably thought she could blame everything on Epstein, that's usually how people like her think... especially when it's partners.

There was an eminent US prosecutor interviewed last night and she touched on the subject of the plea bargaining process.

She said that the woman hadn’t shown any interest in that option yet and she would need to offer up a big name or three to get her sentence reduced or waived ....

I then thought of Prince bladdy Andrew !!!

If you don't pay your TV Licence your ****ed though

[user104658]

I do have somewhat mixed feelings about this. Obviously her activities are unthinkable and she is rightly being locked up, presumably for the rest of her life, that part is absolutely the correct outcome. My worry though is that in terms of "justice" this will be seen as "an end to it" and the countless rich and powerful men who were raping those trafficked girls will simply get away with it. It would have been Epstein to take the bulk of the fall but - having seen a few documentaries with interviews with him - I can see why he was ultimately deemed "unsuitable". I think he would eventually have talked if he thought he could get a better outcome for himself and have been protected. Maxwell clearly knows the real score (that she can't talk ever).

I suspect names will start trickling out in several decades' time... Once they're all dead and buried and have ultimately escaped justice.

[Niamh.]

Yeah exactly what I was getting at TS, there's so many guilty party's here, not just Maxwell and Epstein

[bots]

to me it's all a bit chicken and egg. Was the supply of young girls initiated by the rich paying money for anything they want illegal or not or the trafficking gang. Ultimately, i believe there wouldnt have been a trafficking gang if it wasn't worth the return it generated, so, by definition, the likes of Andrew, Clinton and Trump bear the ultimate responsibility. They used the service and therefore made it viable. Quite how that translates to criminal behaviour is what needs to be proven, which should be perfectly possible if there is the will to do it. I think with the environment now, criminal proceedings are more likely than at any time in the past, i'm just not sure if it's yet reached the time for it to become a reality

I suspect none of it is entirely "about" the young girls, it seems to me that what they offered was a full hedonistic "package" for the ultra-rich that most likely included all sorts of things with varying degrees of legality and they made an absolute fortune from it. The access to these young girls was just one of the "perks" of what they offered which in some ways makes it even more disgusting. No doubt the main draw for many of them. There will be others who didn't touch the girls. Though that's largely irrelevant - at the very least, everyone involved knew what was happening whether it was with them or not. Happy to turn a blind eye. That entire world is full of it.

[Niamh.]

Although it's probably accurate TS, it's such an awful description like these girls were objects, products, non humans, its so sickening which us exactly why it shouldn't be just Maxwell, so so so many other ogres need to be held accountable for this

[Zizu]

That’s not being very Christian Nicky especially at Christmas


To be fair I don’t think many people are too concerned about her wellbeing .

I thought it was laughable to hear her brother complaining about her being kept in cramp conditions where she’s been detained

She actively participated on several occasions too, which makes her very much a sexual predator.

I find it hard to feel sorry for her.
Because some of the victims were as young as 13.
This is awful!

Time for the rich and powerful to be put where they belong for their crimes.

It only happens if we the people demand it. If we let them get away with it, then they'll accept our offer and will get away with it.

Now, forget about all this and place your attention on something else. What you think about Covid?

[Alf]

So, the woman has rightfully gone to prison but what about all those other men and women that went to the Island? Are they all innocent? Are the authorities doing their job?

If you're feeling low like this Nicky you might wanna consider maybe taking a break from the Internet to get away from stories of this nature for a bit.

I know that I have to do it sometimes as it can psychologically mess you up reading info on these crimes avidly.

What I don't get in the UK is why we don't only have our Prisons for Murderers, Rapists & Paedophiles (or MAPS if we go with the PC term) whilst every other crime gets Community Service, but that's just my opinion I guess.

Bit odd isn't it that one of the jurors had experienced sexual abuse, thought that question would have been top of the list when they culled the jurors..she might get a mistrial now :suspect:

Sadly, not really, because the number of women who have experienced sexual abuse or assault at some point in their life is staggeringly high.

But I guess saying "no one with any experience of abuse is allowed" is one way to ensure that you get a jury stacked with well-off blokes who have no idea what they're looking at and would have little empathy even if they did.

Really strong points.

Only those who commit violence, destruction, murders, and sex offences too.
