Ghislaine Maxwell ‘lied’ on US citizenship form – faces charges

Maxwell was sentenced to prison in 2022 on five counts, including trafficking in minors. She has denied her convictions and has appealed to the Supreme Court to have her convictions overturned.

Her legal team has filed numerous objections, including a petition last year asking the Supreme Court to overturn her conviction, arguing that the 2020 charges against her violated an agreement Epstein made with federal prosecutors in 2008.

In the lawsuit, Maxwell alleges that 25 men entered into secret deals, while four additional co-conspirators were known to investigators but were not charged.

“None of the four named co-conspirators or the 25 men with secret settlements were charged,” the court alleges.

Although she did not name names, Maxwell argued that the alleged concealment of these deals undermined the fairness of her trial and violated her constitutional rights.

“New evidence shows that there were 25 men with whom the plaintiff’s attorneys reached secret settlements – who could also be considered co-conspirators,” the legal document said. “None of these men were prosecuted and nothing was disclosed to the petitioner; she would have called them as witnesses if she had known.”
