2024-01-03
Avast, ye scurvy dogs! 'Tis a tale worth tellin'! Aye, near 200 monikers, once concealed, in a lawsuit against that rapscallion Jeffrey Epstein's former lass and matey, Ghislaine Maxwell, be now revealed for all ye landlubbers to see!
Nearly 200 names that were previously redacted from court documents in a lawsuit against Jeffrey Epstein's former lover and accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, have been made public on the orders of a federal judge in New York. U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska had ordered the release of these names in December but gave two weeks for any Jane and John Does to appeal. The list includes some big names such as former President Bill Clinton, his longtime aide Doug Band, Prince Andrew, and French modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel. Epstein had numerous high-profile connections, including former U.S. presidents, foreign prime ministers, Hollywood stars, and people in the modeling and fashion industries. While some of the names were already known through other means, they were previously withheld from the public eye in the lawsuit. Some names were withheld for reasons such as protecting the identities of Epstein's underage victims or because they were falsely identified. The names were all redacted documents in a lawsuit filed against Maxwell by Virginia Giuffre, an Epstein accuser who claimed she was trafficked to his private island before her 18th birthday. The parties settled out of court in 2017. Maxwell herself was sentenced to 20 years in prison for sex trafficking Epstein's victims. The release of these names comes at a time when there is a fight in Congress to release the names of Epstein's clients and people who traveled on his private jet. Tennessee Republicans Sen. Marsha Blackburn and Rep. Tim Burchett have accused Democrats of "stonewalling" their requests for those documents. Giuffre praised their involvement while taunting some of Epstein's associates, stating that there will be a lot of nervous people wondering who is on the naughty list.
