Ghislaine Maxwell will be 'vindicated,' says attorney
Jurors deliberated for five full days before finding Maxwell guilty of five of six counts. She faces up to 65 years in prison.
"We firmly believe in Ghislaine's innocence. Obviously, we are very disappointed with the verdict. We have already started working on the appeal and we are confident that she will be vindicated," said Bobbi Sternheim.
Maxwell, 60, faced charges of sex trafficking and conspiracy to entice Epstein's victims. The trial lasted almost a month in federal court in Manhattan, and included testimony from four women who alleged that Maxwell recruited them into having sex with Epstein in the 1990s and early 2000s.
She was found not guilty of enticing a minor to travel to engage in illegal sex acts.
