Ghislaine Maxwell has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for facilitating Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of minors. In their sentencing memo submitted last week, prosecutors recommended she serve between 30 and 55 years.
should receive a prison sentence that comports with the guidelines for the crimes of which she was convicted in December. A jury found the British heiress guilty of facilitating Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse of minors, and the government submitted a sentencing memo that recommended between 30 and 55 years in prison., asked for leniency: four to five years in prison. They made the case, as they had at trial, that she had been scapegoated for Epstein’s crimes.
“Maxwell was an adult who made her own choices,” they went on. “She made the choice to sexually exploit numerous underage girls. She made the choice to conspire with Epstein for years, working as partners in crime and causing devastating harm to vulnerable victims.” Prosecutors noted several times the extent of Maxwell’s wealth and the financial and social benefits she received through her connection to Epstein. “Beyond the lavish lifestyle that she enjoyed side-by-side with Epstein,” they wrote, “Maxwell also received a townhouse that Epstein bought for her in New York City, and Epstein transferred a total of approximately $23 million to Maxwell during the timeframe of the conspiracy.
“It is not a coincidence that all of Maxwell’s victims came from single-mother households,” they added. “Not only did her conduct exhibit a callous disregard for other human beings, but her practice of targeting vulnerable victims reflects her view that struggling young girls could be treated like disposable objects.”
