World 5 sources 2 countries 24m ago

A federal judge on Tuesday rejected claims by Ghislaine Maxwell that her sex trafficking conviction constituted a "complete miscarriage of justice," while also denying her bid for prison release. The judge stated that Maxwell's assertions were based on speculation, distortions, and other unsupported grounds.

Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend, longtime associate, and a British socialite, was originally convicted of sex trafficking in December 2021. Her recent legal maneuver sought to overturn the conviction and secure her release from prison before the court ultimately dismissed her arguments.
