Summary
This page from a legal filing (dated April 1, 2021) argues that the indictment against Ghislaine Maxwell is solely a result of Jeffrey Epstein's death and the subsequent media frenzy, claiming she is being used as a scapegoat. The text highlights that Maxwell was not charged in the 2008 Florida case or the 2019 SDNY case while Epstein was alive, and criticizes the government's lack of evidence during detention hearings regarding her flight risk. A footnote notes that the indictment was superseded on March 29 to include allegations from a fourth anonymous accuser dating back to 2001-2004.
