Ghislaine Maxwell's sex trafficking trial has been nothing short of shocking
The former socialite has been charged with one count of enticement of a minor to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, one count of transportation of a minor with intent to engage in illegal sex acts, one count of sex trafficking of a minor, and three counts of conspiracy for her alleged role in grooming underage girls for her late boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein to sexually abuse.
From trips to royal estates to alleged secret pregnancies — the revelations that have come out of the New York City courtroom have been earth shattering.
Maxwell & Epstein Hung Out At The Queen's Cabin
As the trial kicked off, evidence was presented to the jury of a photograph showing the former couple hanging out at Queen Elizabeth II's log cabin at Balmoral.
The picture — which increased speculation that Prince Andrew invited the couple to the royal estate in 1999 — did not have a clear date for when it was taken
The royal was also mentioned when one of Maxwell's four accusers, going by the name of Jane, explained to the jury that she remembered being on a flight with the Prince.
Epstein's former housekeeper also described the royal as "always polite and a very nice guy. He was the only guy who left us a tip."
Victim Claimed She Saw A Photo Of Maxwell 'Pregnant' At Least Once
As the third of the four accusers took the stand, the victim alleged that Epstein's partner had been with child at least once that she had seen.
The victim testified that she had seen a photo of Maxwell "nude and pregnant" during one of the "100 times" she had gone to visit the billionaire's Palm Beach mansion.
She was then shown a picture in court but said that was not the image that she had originally seen at the home. No further information was given.
Never-Before-Seen Pictures Of Maxwell Rubbing Epstein's Feet Were Shown To Jury
Jurors were able to see a peek into the former duo’s intimate relationship after they were shown private photographs of a smiling Epstein getting a foot massage from the former socialite on his private plane.
The picture also depicted the former fiancer pushing his feet into the 58-year-old British socialite’s cleavage.
The intimate and PDA packed photographs were collected in the 2019 FBI raid on Epstein's mansion.
Epstein Wired Maxwell More Than $30 Million In 8 Years
Prosecutors called JPMorgan Chase Executive Director Patrick McHugh to the stand in order to show the jury bank statements that showed large sums of money being transferred from Jeffrey to Ghislaine.
According to the banker and bank documents, $30.7 million was transferred from the late convicted criminal's account or companies he controlled to his girlfriend between the years of 1999 and 2007.
One statement revealed his business, Financial Trust Company sold $18.3 million of shares and sent them to a bank account owned by Maxwell that same day.
Victim Claims Maxwell Sought Woman To Perform Oral Sex On Billionaire Because She Was Too Tired
A woman by the name of “Kate” testified in Manhattan Federal Court that Ghislaine needed assistance to keep up with Jeffrey’s high libido.
“She asked if I knew anyone who could come give Jeffrey a blow job because it was a lot for her to do,” the model and songwriter who took the stand as a witness told the jury.
“She said he would need to have sex about three times a day,” Kate said. “Her demeanor was very, almost like a schoolgirl. It was like she was younger than me. Everything was fun and everything was silly. Everything was a silly joke.”
