The family of deceased Jeffrey Epstein victim Virginia Giuffre is begging President Donald Trump not to pardon his accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell.
Giuffre was found to have committed suicide in April.
Maxwell has formally requested a pardon from President Trump, which he has not ruled out. When asked about it by the media last week, he said he has “not thought” about it.
“Ghislaine Maxwell is a monster who deserves to rot in prison for the rest of her life,” Giuffre’s family, Sky and Amanda Roberts, and Danny and Lanette Wilson, said in a statement obtained by the BBC.
Speaking to reporters onboard Air Force One on Tuesday, Trump said that he and Epstein had a falling out over him stealing employees from Mar-a-Lago, one of whom was Giuffre.
BBC reports, “In their statement, her family members said they ‘would like to clarify’ that their sister was ‘preyed upon’ by Maxwell during her time working for Trump.”
“It was shocking to hear President Trump invoke our sister and say that he was aware that Virginia had been ‘stolen’ from Mar-a-Lago,” the family’s statement continued. “It makes us ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell’s criminal actions.”
Giuffre started working at Mar-a-Lago in 2000, when she was 16 years old.
The family also condemned the Justice Department for meeting with Maxwell in prison, where she is serving a two-decade-long sentence. They pointed out that she has lied under oath and “will continue to do so for as long as it affects her position”.
“A predator who thought only of herself, she destroyed the lives of girls and young women without conscience,” the statement said.
“Virginia always said that Ghislaine Maxwell was vicious and could often be more cruel than Epstein.”
The statement noted that Giuffre had faced serious threats for trying to help prosecutors in the case.
“She endured death threats, threats against the lives of her children and family, financial ruin, and her physical and mental well-being were destroyed,” the statement said.
For this reason, they urged Trump to “never consider giving Ghislaine Maxwell any leniency.”
“She must remain in prison – anything less would go down in history as being one of the highest travesties of justice,” they concluded.
Prior to her shocking death, Giuffre long claimed that Prince Andrew sexually assaulted her in New York, London, and on Epstein’s “pedo island” when she was 17.
