Ghislaine Maxwell trial LIVE new – Epstein 'foot massage' photos & pics of duo at Queen's Balmoral Castle seen in court

12/09/2021

CREEPY pictures showing Ghislaine Maxwell giving Jeffrey Epstein a foot massage and a photo of the duo lounging in the Queen's cabin at Balmoral were shown at Maxwell's ongoing trial.

Prosecutors on Tuesday revealed details of a cache of photographs and documents that were found during a raid on Epstein's Palm Beach mansion.

Among them was a picture of Maxwell and Epstein kissing, and another of Maxwell in the nude.

Maxwell's trial has been told she and Epstein had been in a relationship but remained "the best of friends" after they split, and prosecutors described Maxwell and convicted sex offender Epstein as being “partners in crime” in the abuse of girls.

Maxwell is currently charged with several felony accounts some of which include human trafficking charges.

She has denied all charges against her, and her lawyers argue she is being made a "scapegoat" for Epstein's crimes. They have painted the alleged victims as in it for the cash.

    Defense has accused alleged victim of lying for cash

    Maxwell has previously claimed that one alleged victim, Annie Farmer, fabricated her accusations because she wanted money.

    One of Maxwell’s lawyers wrote: “The fact that plaintiff seeks money from the estate and from Ms Maxwell in the millions of dollars at the same time she is a government witness in an upcoming criminal trial on the same topic is reason enough to suspect that her newly asserted memories of abuse without corroboration are not based on the truth or a desire for ‘justice,’ so much as her desire for cash.”

    According to a 2009 deposition, several of Epstein’s household employees testified that Epstein referred to Maxwell as his “main girlfriend.”

    58-page rule book

    Maxwell’s trial has heard Jeffrey Epstein’s alleged “madam” acted as the “Lady of the House” for the multimillionaire.

    And as part of that role, she is said to have handed out a 58 page rulebook to staff which included chilling instructions such as “see nothing, hear nothing”.

    Epstein’s former housekeeper Juan Patricio Alessi, 71, who worked at the paedo’s mansion in Palm Beach from 1990 to 2002 took the stand on day five.

    And he revealed Maxwell once handed him a hefty booklet with a checklist detailing the tasks he was to carry out to “maintain the house” – something he said he found “degrading”.

    The book, which was submitted into evidence and was written by a “Countess”, the court heard, was released showing yet more strict rules staff members were told to follow.
