#US court denies #GhislaineMaxwell’s request to have sex trafficking appeal reconsidered https://t.co/a0oIEEiJqV
A U.S. appeals court has denied Ghislaine Maxwell's request for an en banc rehearing regarding her 2021 conviction for aiding Jeffrey Epstein in the sexual abuse of underage girls. The Second Circuit upheld the original ruling, which found Maxwell guilty of facilitating Epstein's crimes from 1994 to 2004. Following the court's decision, Maxwell's defense indicated plans to appeal to the Supreme Court. The court's rejection confirms the previous judgment and denies any reconsideration of the case, as Maxwell's legal team had sought to challenge the findings of the trial judge.
