Ghislaine Maxwell loses appeal over recruiting girls for Epstein
Ghislaine Maxwell lost an appeal against her sex-trafficking conviction on Tuesday.
Maxwell, 62, has been serving a 20-year prison sentence after she was convicted in 2021 on five federal charges for having recruited and groomed four underage girls for the billionaire Jeffrey Epstein to abuse between 1994 and 2004.
The decision, issued by three judges sitting on the Second US Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan, was unanimous.
