Ghislaine Maxwell Files Petition, Raising Concerns of Political Interference
Ghislaine Maxwell is seeking to overturn her conviction and sentence on federal sex trafficking charges through a petition filed in federal court. The petition alleges substantial new evidence, including juror misconduct, collusion, and due process violations. Evidence from litigation against the Federal Bureau of Prisons and others is cited, claiming exculpatory information was withheld and false testimony was presented. Maxwell, who is representing herself, was previously denied an appeal to the Supreme Court and is currently serving a 20-year sentence.
