"Latest Epstein Document Releases Shed More Light on High-Profile Associates"

A total of 132 documents from a defamation lawsuit involving Virginia Giuffre and Ghislaine Maxwell were unsealed, revealing discussions about how Maxwell should respond to allegations linking her to Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking activities and her connections to prominent individuals like Prince Andrew. The documents show Maxwell's concerns about being implicated legally and her communications with Epstein about handling the media. Epstein died by suicide in 2019, while Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence after being convicted in 2021. Prince Andrew has denied allegations and settled a civil lawsuit with Giuffre without admitting wrongdoing. More documents are expected to be released next week.
