Maxwell is charged with recruiting and grooming teenagers to be sexually assaulted by financier Jeffrey Epstein.

A JURY HAS resumed deliberations in the sex trafficking trial of Ghislaine Maxwell after the Christmas weekend.

Maxwell’s lawyers say she was a US government scapegoat after Epstein killed himself in 2019 in a Manhattan federal jail cell while awaiting a sex trafficking trial. Maxwell’s lawyers said the memories of her accusers were corrupted by the passage of time and the influence of lawyers steering them toward multimillion-dollar payouts from a fund set up to compensate Epstein victims.
