Ghislaine Maxwell Trial: Jury Will Now Decide Her Future

Ghislaine Maxwell faces up to 80 years behind bars if the jury finds her guilty of charges of grooming young women for the sex trafficking trade. Of course, her association with Prince Andrew brought embarrassment to the Royal Family. But for her, her entire future now rests in the hands of just a few people. Termed a “pimp” for Jeffrey Epstein, the defense and the prosecution close their arguments on Monday this week.

Ghislaine Maxwell Trial Nears The End As Jurors Deliberate

The trial of the former socialite hits close to the bone for the Royal Family. During the three weeks that it took so far, more embarrassing testimony came out about Prince Andrew. In the opening stages of the trial, Epstein’s pilot Larry Visoski stated that he flew Prince Andrew to parties hosted by Maxwell and Epstein. Of course, he remains in the news now because one of his alleged victims, Virginia Giuffre fights him in court for allegedly engaging in sexual intercourse with her when she was still a minor. Meanwhile, the trial of Ghislaine keeps the family in the spotlight.

While Ghislaine Maxwell potentially awaits the end of her life as she knew it, more scandal broke about her connections with the Royal family. A photo emerged that revealed she attended a party that Prince Charles went to after the premiere of Charlie’s Angels. Naturally, as a previous photo revealed her sitting on a bench at Balmoral, that raises even more questions about just how far she wheedled her way into the Royal House of England. Meanwhile, she’s probably not thinking about that right now, as her trial nears its end and the jury decides her fate.

Ghislaine Maxwell Trial Saw Fierce Clashed Between Legal Teams

Before the jury went off to deliberate on her future, NBC News reported that the defense and the prosecution argued their cases fiercely for four hours. The outlet noted, “The government cast Maxwell as a “dangerous” predator who enabled longtime confidant Jeffrey Epstein, a stark contrast from the “innocent woman” her lawyers have portrayed.” Judging by the news, it seems that a verdict might be reached before Christmas. So, potentially, this time next year she might sit behind bars facing a dismal Christmas lunch.

The future of Ghislaine Maxwell now rests in the hands of a jury composed inf 12 people. Six men and six women heard many witnesses for the prosecution, as well four people who accused her of crimes involving sex trafficking. If the outcome goes badly for her, she probably won’t leave prison again during her lifetime. Apparently, ahead of the closing arguments, she refused to testify, and the defense settled for fewer witnesses than predicted. Perhaps she feels confident that the prosecution dropped the ball.
