Epstein Confidant Ghislaine Maxwell's Deposition Is Unsealed

Source: The Daily Beast

This is a developing story...

The long-secret testimony of Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, has finally been made public.

Four years after her confidential deposition in one victim’s lawsuit, Maxwell’s answers to under-oath questioning could provide a deeper look into Epstein’s trafficking ring ahead of her criminal trial scheduled for next year.

On Monday, the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ordered the unsealing of Maxwell’s 2016 deposition from a now-settled defamation suit filed by Virginia Giuffre, who claims Maxwell and Epstein trafficked her to powerful men for years.

...despite the evil cabal (with influence inside the prison system) that was supposedly able to kill Epstein.

But they did not redact all entries of President Clinton.

I have gotten as far as page 144 of a pdf I am reading on my ipad. I am only specifying that because I am not sure if the page numbers are altered depending on the device you are reading on (repagination?).

Interesting, but about as enlightening as Barrett’s testimony. Ms Maxwell is quite the hostile respondent (not sure what the term is for someone answering questions in a deposition).

Although I enjoy reading this type of material, I actually prefer studying excel more!!

Time to start exposing powerful people before she ends up dead under mysterious circumstances

At least as far along as I have read.

But we all know that 30 gals coming forward for police reports didn’t all lie.

She is going to face the music with jail time.
I can imagine she is a bit p-o’d that Jeffrey is no longer in the same boat. Maybe she is regretting ever getting involved with him, only to have to deal with all this with him out of the picture.

She made her bed, now she must lie in it.

IMO this will be the document that gets her burned for lying under oath when all the lies are disproven.

somewhere in the near future 'Jeffery's' deposition is going to bury her.

A case where so many powerful men circle in an outer orbit, Epstein kills himself and a woman might be the only one facing justice.
