Ghislaine Maxwell trial in New York: the prosecution has completed its interrogations

After ten days of debates to try to identify the role played by the former British socialite with the wealthy Jeffrey Epstein, the trial should give way to the defense from next week.

The debates, the deliberation of the jury until the verdict were to last until mid-January but the trial is accelerating and it could end earlier.

Ghislaine Maxwell, 59 – British, American and French and daughter of press magnate Robert Maxwell – has been on trial since November 29, accused of providing her former companion and collaborator, Epstein, with underage girls so that he sexually exploits them. Accused of being a “tout,” she has been detained in New York City since her arrest in the summer of 2020 – a year after Epstein’s prison suicide. She pleads not guilty to all counts for which she faces life imprisonment.
