Jeffrey Epstein accuser says she has just 'four days to live' after crash
A woman at the heart of providing evidence against the late sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein is fighting for her life after a crash in Australia, with doctors telling her she has "four days to live" in her current condition, reported The Miami Herald on Monday.
Virginia Roberts Guiffre, 41, posted a graphic photo Sunday of "herself from her hospital bed covered in bruises on Instagram, where she wrote doctors said she has four days to live, according to the post, which was first published by the British media," reported Julie K. Brown, who has covered the Epstein story since its inception.
“I’ve gone into kidney renal failure,” Giuffre said on the Instagram post. “They have given me four days to live, transferring me to a specialist in urology. I’m ready to go, just not until I see my babies one last time...”

Giuffre has detailed sexual assault allegations against Epstein, a high-flying wealth manager known for his connections to the rich and powerful, at underage child trafficking parties and said Britain's Prince Andrew joined in. Prince Andrew has consistently denied the allegations.
She also implicated pro-Trump lawyer Alan Dershowitz in the offenses, although Dershowitz denies all allegations he had sexual contact with anyone at these parties and he has never been charged with any crime.
Epstein himself originally escaped meaningful prosecution through a controversial sweetheart plea agreement in 2007 with Alex Acosta, a former federal prosecutor who went on to serve as President Donald Trump's Labor Secretary before the resurfacing of this deal forced him to resign.
In 2019, Epstein was charged in Manhattan federal court for the full extent of his child sex crimes, but shortly after being locked up, was found dead of suicide in his jail cell before he could stand trial. His death, though conclusively settled by medical examiners, has led to ongoing conspiracy theories, with some people asserting he must have been taken out by co-conspirators who didn't want him to reveal their identities.
His principal partner in crime, British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell, was convicted for her role in the scheme and sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2022.
