Today the US Government filed a superseding indictment against Ghislaine Maxwell, alleging an additional minor victim (Minor Victim-4) who was allegedly subject to a sex trafficking conspiracy between 2001 and 2004.
A Summary of the New Charges
Maxwell had previously been charged with counts of conspiracy to “entice minors to travel” that lasted until 1997. This new indictment provides that there is a fourth minor victim to this conspiracy, which took place between 2001 and 2004. As explained by the Government in today’s letter to the court:
The new indictment also adds a new charge – a “sex trafficking conspiracy” – between 2001 and 2004, in which Minor Victim-4 was “a victim of this conspiracy.”
Specific Allegations in the Superseding Indictment:
- Maxwell groomed a “14 year old” victim “to engage in sexual acts with Epstein.”
- Maxwell and Epstein’s other “conspirators” sent the minor lingerie and gifts. Epstein and Maxwell encouraged the minor to “recruit other young females to provide sexualized massages to Epstein.” These efforts were successful – they found more victims.
- New Charges of “Sex Trafficking of a Minor.” The superseding indictment alleges Maxwell recruited, enticed a minor “to engage in at least one commercial sex act with Jeffrey Epstein.”
