President Donald Trump’s Justice Department has urged the Supreme Court to reject an appeal from convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell.
More than two years after Epstein died by suicide in a New York City jail, Maxwell was found guilty in December 2021 of conspiracy to entice minors to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, among other charges, related to her role in a scheme to abuse minor girls with the wealthy financier for a decade.
