NEW YORK — The British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted Wednesday of luring teenage girls to be sexually abused by the American millionaire Jeffrey Epstein. The verdict capped a monthlong trial featuring sordid accounts of the sexual exploitation of girls as young as 14, told by four women who described being abused as teens in the 1990s and early 2000s at Epstein’s palatial homes in Florida, New York and New Mexico. Jurors deliberated for five full days before finding Maxwell guilty of five of six counts.

Comments:

A major question -- how did Epstein get to be so stinkin' rich? Was he blackmailing all the rich and famous libidinos?

Could the Judge rushing the Jury to come up with a verdict before the New Years break cause a mistrial?

No surprise here. I suspect this jury was eager to mete out some justice to someone in this sordid tale, and with the chief player rotting in Hell, she was good for it. The big question becomes will she rat out all the big players now, or even get the opportunity to before she gets hung up in her cell like her partner?

Epstein worked for Wall Street firm Bear Stearns which was bought by Citi. At least that is where he started.

It is believed that Epstein was a blackmailer. As for Maxwell, how on earth did it take a jury 5 full days to convict her? The evidence was powerful. Her history as part of his perverted scheme was well-known. A real head-shaker, but they finally got it. No hugs for her attorneys, poor babies. Sometimes the perp is just too guilty to be saved by clever lawyers.

“ The British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted Wednesday of luring teenage girls to be sexually abused by the American millionaire Jeffrey Epstein.” So, Jeffrey He Didn’t Hang Himself Epstein became incredibly rich by paying himself for promiscuous acts performed by underage girls? Girls who both willingly returned and talked their friends into doing the same. And, his madam, Ghislaine, was found guilty of sex trafficking these young girls without any disclosure of whom she was trafficking for other than Epstein. Other than knowing that Bill Clinton flew on the Lolita Express at least 27 times, we learned absolutely nothing about Epstein.

I'm assuming that all of her evidence of all the big-wig men who used Epstein's "services" are safely in trusted confidant's hands. If she gets a really harsh sentence, or becomes the victim of an "Arkanicide totally unexpected suicide" while in prison, a lot of powerful men (and the Hilldebeast) are going down hard when that all becomes public!!!

To answer the question of 'how did Epstein get so rich?' It is believed that big corporate money and foundations, etc that needed professional money management would direct that money to legitimate MM through him. He would take a small percentage. Of a lot of assets!!! Nice work if you can get it! I have read that while some of the big names in Asset Management were aware of him, since he was directing funds their way, but he was not an active manager. The term 'asset gatherer' is used as well. So, yes it was blackmail, and child prostitution that he used to get the assets. If the 'client' list is revealed it will shake the World! I find it hard to believe that will happen. Even if the authorities have them now....which I think they do.

The time to rat your friends out was before the trial, not after. The judge likely will not allow any deals for reduced sentencing. That being said, if she gets a long sentence, she likely will name some names out of sheer anger.

Fully vaccinated people infected with the omicron variant of the novel coronavirus could end up with super immunity to the coronavirus, according to new research from Oregon Health & Science University. The research — published online in the Journal of the American Medical Association — found that breakthrough infections create “a robust immune response against the delta variant.” Researchers said the findings indicate that “the immune response is likely to be highly effective against other variants as the SARS-CoV-2 virus continues to mutate.”

A video widely shared online falsely suggests COVID-19 vaccination is to blame, weaving headlines about him into a rapid-fire compilation of news coverage about athletes collapsing. The vaccine played no role in West’s death — he died from an undiagnosed heart condition in 2013, seven years before the pandemic began.

Seven anti-vaccine doctors fell sick after gathering earlier this month for a Florida “summit” at which alternative treatments for Covid-19 were discussed. “I have been on ivermectin for 16 months, my wife and I,” Dr Bruce Boros told the audience at the event held at the World Equestrian Center in Ocala, adding: “I have never felt healthier in my life". The 71-year-old cardiologist and staunch anti-vaccine advocate contracted Covid-19 two days later, according to the head event organizer, Dr John Littell. Littell, an Ocala family physician, also told the Daily Beast six other doctors among 800 to 900 participants at the event also tested positive or developed Covid-19 symptoms.

Unvaccinated people who had been infected months earlier were 5 times more likely to get COVID-19 than fully vaccinated people who didn’t have a prior infection, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention concluded in a new study. “These data show, pretty strongly, that the vaccines are more protective against symptomatic COVID,” said Dr. Mike Saag, an infectious disease expert at the University of Alabama.

SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Despite warnings the race would be close, California Gov. Gavin Newsom decisively defeated efforts to kick him out of office, a win the Democrat cast as an endorsement of his handling of the coronavirus pandemic and his party’s liberal values. Newsom cruised to victory in the recall election Tuesday, boosted by healthy turnout among an overwhelmingly Democratic electorate, ensuring the nation’s most populous state will remain a laboratory for progressive policies. With an estimated two-thirds of ballots counted, the “no” response to the question of whether to recall Newsom was ahead by a 30-point margin.

The Biden administration paused shipments of the monoclonal antibodies because according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the treatment isn’t effective against Omicron, which they claim became the dominant strain earlier this month.

It took many hours of deliberation, but a jury finally reached a verdict in the trial of the year — one that should have been the trial of the year ten years ago. Ghislaine Maxwell could face decades in prison for sex trafficking of minors after getting convicted of five out of six counts in her indictment. As NBC News reports, Jeffrey Epstein’s literal partner in crime might also face a new trial for two counts of perjury: British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted Wednesday of five federal sex trafficking charges after a jury concluded that she played a pivotal part in recruiting and grooming teenage girls to be sexually abused

Lumping Donald Trump with Osama Bin Laden? That's going too easy on the former president!

Appearing on Thursday morning's New Day, Kayyem said that when a year ago in an Atlantic article she depicted Trump as "the leader of a terror movement," she was, as she recently tweeted, actually being "too kind" to him! (Video) Perhaps realizing just how outrageous was Kayyem's accusation, substitute host John Avlon tried to soft-pedal it. He framed it as his Kayyem calling Trump head of an "extremist" movement, not a "terror" one.
