In her appeal, Maxwell’s lawyers said prosecutors scapegoated her because Epstein was dead and “public outrage” demanded that prosecutors pin blame somewhere.
The lawyers also said the government waited too long to bring charges, and that Maxwell was immune under a 2007 non-prosecution agreement between Epstein and federal prosecutors in Florida.
In addition, Maxwell’s lawyers said the trial was tainted because one juror failed to disclose he had been sexually abused as a child.
Prosecutors believe the appeal is meritless.
The Constitution says a jury of your peers, not your victims, I demand a jury of pedo sex traffickers!
The fact that the juror didn’t disclose this might actually be a problem.
