The Hidden Pressures On Virginia Giuffre

It Wasn't Just Powerful Men She Was Up Against.

What A Tragedy.

What else can you say about the suicide of Virginia Giuffre at only 41?

To fight and fight and fight in the way that she did, not just against Jeffrey Epstein the man who had hired her and used and abused her, but to stick up her hand and go boldly and publicly after Prince Andrew, and Ghislaine Maxwell – and a list of other powerful men she accused of assault, participating in Epstein’s predatory circle: Sen.

That was when the infamous photograph of Maxwell, Giuffre and Prince Andrew was shoved back into circulation, having been out there briefly, once before in 2011.

In response, Virginia sued Ghislaine Maxwell for defamation – and, although the case was settled, it was the discovery in this litigation, that wound up being the backbone of the 2019 criminal case against Epstein – and, later, after he died without facing a trial – Maxwell.
