The US Supreme Court on Monday denied certiorari to Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell’s bid for a new trial following her 2021 conviction on five counts including sex trafficking of a minor and conspiracy charges related to recruiting and grooming underage girls for sexual abuse. Maxwell had argued that then-US Attorney – and later convicted felon President Trump’s first Labor Secretary – Alex Acosta’s corrupt 2008 deal with Epstein immunizing unindicted co-conspirators had applied to her and thus her charges and conviction were void. The Court did not explain their denial.
CNN’s Elie Honig had warned that, strictly on the legal technicalities, Maxwell might have actually had a good case before the court, estimating her chances at 20 to 30 percent that Los Supremos would actually take it up – and considerably higher if not for the fact that she was Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice. Which could be why they didn’t state any reason for the denial, that even during a stretch in which they nuked abortion rights and gave the fat fucking autocrat in the White House a blank check for fascism that letting Ghislaine Maxwell off the hook was a bridge too far for them.
The court also denied other sick freak Laura Loomer’s petition in her batshit “RICO” lawsuit against Mark Zuckerberg and Twitter. Sedition Sam recused from the decision for some reason.
