The Supreme Court just dealt Ghislaine Maxwell a MASSIVE blow. Right, the high court officially returned to the bench today to kick off what will be yet another incredibly consequential term. And one of the first things they did was reject Maxwell’s attempt to appeal her criminal conviction for sex-trafficking girls for Jeffrey Epstein. Right, back in April, Maxwell filed a petition asking the Supreme Court to overturn her conviction. With her arguing that she should have never been prosecuted because of the infamous plea deal Epstein had reached with Florida prosecutors in 2008 to resolve allegations he molested dozens of girls. And specifically, under that deal, Epstein agreed to plead guilty to state criminal charges of soliciting prostitution, and in exchange, prosecutors agreed not to bring more criminal charges against him related to the sex-trafficking investigation. But, very notably here, the prosecutors also agreed not to charge any of Epstein’s co-conspirators. So after Maxwell was convicted for her crimes in New York, she attempted to appeal that decision, arguing that Epstein’s plea deal protected her from prosecution. But an appeals court rejected that claim, ruling that authorities in New York weren’t bound to an agreement made by prosecutors in Florida. And so by declining to hear her case, the Supreme Court basically put the final nail in the coffin. Though you did have her lawyer issuing a statement saying that “this fight isn’t over,” and adding: “Serious legal and factual issues remain, and we will continue to pursue every avenue available to ensure that justice is done.” But, that said, it’s unclear what else they can really do. Right, experts say that with this Supreme Court decision, it seems likely that Maxwell’s only hope for an early release from prison would be if Trump granted her clemency. Now Trump, for his part, said back in July that he hadn’t considered pardoning Maxwell — but he also added, “I'm allowed to do it.” So, I mean, who the fuck knows what he’ll end up doing. But, for whatever it’s worth, his administration did urge the Supreme Court not to take up Maxwell’s appeal. —————————— Produced by: Cory Ray, Philip DeFranco Edited by: James Girardier, Maxwell Enright, Julie Goldberg, Christian Meeks, Matthew Henry Art Department: William Crespo Writing/Research: Lili Stenn, Philip DeFranco ———————————— #GhislaineMaxwell #JeffreyEpstein #EpsteinFiles
