Hearing President Trump mention our sister and admit that he knew Virginia had been "stolen" from Mar-a-Lago was startling, the family said. We question whether he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's illegal activities, particularly in light of his subsequent statement that his close friend Jeffrey "likes women on the younger side… no doubt about it." Survivors are entitled to answers.
The announcement was made a few days after Ghislaine Maxwell and her lawyer allegedly met with Todd Blanche, the Deputy Attorney General and former Trump defense lawyer. Both the public and survivors have expressed disapproval and concerns about the meeting. The meeting was strongly opposed by Giuffre's family, who claimed that Maxwell should not be trusted due to his demonstrated history of dishonesty.
The statement went on, "If our sister could speak today, she would be most incensed that the government is focusing on a known perjurer." "Ghislaine Maxwell has lied under oath and will do so for as long as it benefits her.
Trump's latest comments also build on his previous statement that Epstein was excluded from Mar-a-Lago after he "swiped" staff. White House aides previously said Epstein was excluded for "being a creep."
Ghislaine Maxwell is already serving a 20-year jail term for helping recruit and prepare underage girls for Epstein. Epstein took his own life in prison in 2019 while facing federal charges of sex trafficking.
