Judge orders release of Jeffrey Epstein records in response to Miami Herald litigation

[mia]

...The documents ordered unsealed by Preska are from the process of discovery, where lawyers from each side can ask detailed questions of each other ahead of a trial. Specifically, they were motions already decided on by a judge who first heard the civil lawsuit from Epstein victims against Maxwell.

The 2015 civil lawsuit was brought by Virginia Giuffre, who alleges Epstein abused her when she was 17 and that Maxwell recruited her when Giuffre was a spa assistant at Palm Beach’s Mar-A-Lago, now-President Donald Trump....

The prosecution of Maxwell in the Southern District of New York is being closely watched since the alleged madam rubbed shoulders with Hollywood A-listers, British royalty and famous politicians, including Bill Clinton and Trump.

Trump made headlines this week by using a coronavirus press conference to say he wished Maxwell well in her legal troubles.

1. YES!!!

Bring it all out! Maxwell had better have some good guards around her. When will everyone tied into this cesspool of filth be brought to justice. Alex Acosta? yep, let's talk about his part in this mess.

2. Good. Will this be appealed?

4. Maxwell's lawyers have a week to file an appeal.

"Preska said the presumption of public access to these documents “far outweighed” any rights to avoid embarrassment or annoyance claimed by Maxwell. She ordered the documents readied for unsealing within a week, but gave Maxwell’s lawyers a week to file an appeal. If none is granted, the documents would begin hitting the docket next Thursday."
