Maxwell's attorneys tried hard to show she was nothing more than a dedicated employee, but photos with Epstein proved otherwise

The picture went right to the question right at the heart of the British socialite’s charges: was she Epstein’s consigliere, his unknowing partner, or was she — as the US government contended — his procurer?Article content

Prosecutors repeatedly tried to place Maxwell and Epstein together, describing her as his “right hand”, and saying she was involved in “every detail of Epstein’s life”. “Epstein’s death left a gaping hole in the pursuit of justice for many of these women,” Ms Sternheim said. “She’s filling that hole, and filling that empty chair.”

Mr Alessi told the court about the “degrading” instructions he was given covering everything from how to keep their bedrooms tidy to what Maxwell and Epstein liked for breakfast.Article contentIt was the first of several moments of testimony during the first week of the trial that underlined how the case hinged on the precise nature of her partnership with Epstein, whose shadow loomed over the case even in death.
