Ghislaine Maxwell Gave A Non-Apology To Victims After Being Sentenced To 20 Years In Prison

Disgraced socialite Ghislaine Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison Tuesday for helping deceased financier Jeffrey Epstein

Maxwell’s lawyers argued she should be sentenced to five years in jail. They said she had been seen as the scapegoat for Epstein.

Prosecutors last week called for Maxwell to be sentenced to 30 to 55 years in jail. They said Epstein couldn’t have abused his victims without her help and called her conduct “shockingly predatory”.

Alison Nathan said

“It is hard for me to address the court after listening to the pain and anguish expressed in the statements made here today,” she said.

“I believe that Jeffrey Epstein was a manipulative, cunning and controlling man who lived a profoundly compartmentalised life and fooled all of those in his orbit.”

“I hope my conviction and harsh incarceration brings you closure, peace and finality.”
