The sixty-year-old Maxwell was found guilty of sex trafficking charges on 14 January, 2022. The jury convicted her of recruiting and grooming girls for Jeffrey Epstein on December 29, 2021. She is convicted of facilitating sexual abuse of minors, which means she could spend the rest of her life in prison.

Confirming their position in the letter to Judge Alison J. Nathan, the US government said: "In the event, the defendant's post-trial motions are denied, the Government is prepared to dismiss the severed perjury counts at the time of sentencing, in light of the victims' significant interests in bringing closure to this matter and avoiding the trauma of testifying again. "

Epstein's facilitator was found guilty of five out of six counts of sex trafficking in New York, United States.

U.S. District Judge Alison J. Nathan announced June 28 as the date as she awaits to resolve defence claims that a new trial should be ordered. As a publicly identified juror told other jurors that he was sexually abused as a child and used his personal experience about the subject matter in order to persuade others to convict Maxwell.

Epstein had taken his own life at Manhattan prison in August 2019 while he was awaiting a trial on sex trafficking charges.

Maxwell's lawyers went ahead and argued that she was being made into a scapegoat by the prosecutors after Epstein's death.
