|    Ghislaine Maxwell Begs Judge to Be Set F    |

      XPost: alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, alt.politics.trump, alt.politics.republicans       XPost: sac.politics, talk.politics.guns       From: yourdime@outlook.com              Ghislaine Maxwell, former lover and partner-in-crime of deceased human       trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, plans to beg a judge to let her out of the       current minimum-security prison she calls home, according to a letter from       her lawyer. However, she tossed in a twist this time around. Maxwell plans       to represent herself. The delusion is strong with this one.              Can you imagine an adult woman who helped a man rape and auction off       underage girls thinking she deserves freedom from any consequences for her       actions? It staggers the mind. No universe exists where Maxwell should       walk the streets. Her crimes targeted children, the most vulnerable       citizens we have aside from the pre-born and elderly. Not to mention the       fact that allowing her to go free would be a miscarriage of justice. She       received her trial as the Constitution guarantees. She deserves nothing       else.              Maxwell, who was transferred to the current facility in Texas from a       prison in Florida earlier this year after she agreed to an interview with       Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, will file a habeas corpus petition,       her attorney, David Oscar Markus, said in a letter he addressed to a       federal judge.              "Understanding that President Trump has signed the Epstein Transparency       Act into law, Ms. Maxwell does not take a position regarding the       government’s request to unseal the grand jury transcripts and modify the       protective order," Markus stated in a letter he sent to Judge Paul       Englemayer on Wednesday.              "At the same time, Ms. Maxwell respectfully notes that shortly she will       file a habeas petition pro se," the letter continued. "Releasing the grand       jury materials from her case, which contain untested and unproven       allegations, would create undue prejudice so severe that it would       foreclose the possibility of a fair retrial should Ms. Maxwell’s habeas       petition succeed."              He gave no reason for the petition.              Legal experts say a habeas petition usually requires an extremely high       burden of proof, and lawyers typically use it only after other appeals       fail, according to Fox News.              "It appears from the filing that Ms. Maxwell is attempting to shield       herself from the materials that will be released pursuant to the       president’s order regarding the Epstein materials to protect her appellate       rights, specifically her anticipated habeas corpus petition," New Jersey-       based criminal defense lawyer James Leonard Jr. explained.              "Habeas motions typically serve as the final step in the appeals process       and courts seldom grant them because the burden is extremely high on the       defendant. It appears that Ms. Maxwell is taking that step without a       lawyer, which makes her attempt even more difficult," he said.              As stated previously, the victims involved in this horrendous human       trafficking operation deserve far better than watching someone who       violated them in such a vile manner walk free. The evidence against       Maxwell stands solid. No doubt exists about her involvement in the       sickening crimes that transpired. Releasing her would truly be a       miscarriage of justice. Not to mention that doing so would destroy the       career of the judge she plans to petition, a stain that no one could ever       scrub clean.              Sigrid McCawley, a lawyer representing one of Epstein's victims, Annie       Farmer, said in a separate court document that her client supports the       government's decision to unseal grand jury transcripts and other evidence       from the case. It's time to reveal the truth, the whole truth, and nothing       but the truth concerning Epstein and his crimes.              https://pjmedia.com/michaelcantrell/2025/12/04/ghislaine-maxwell-begs-       judge-to-be-set-free-but-theres-a-huge-twist-n4946711              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
