Ghislaine Maxwell’s Lawyer Says She Is Still Seeking a Trump Pardon, as the Epstein’s Accomplice Serves Her 20-Year Sex-Trafficking Sentence
Gmax is still looking for a pardon.
While all around the world the ‘Epstein files’ are causing ripples that affected the life of the rich and powerful, causing from reputational harm to criminal prosecutions, one woman continues to serve her sentence and dream of a pardon.
Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted of sex-trafficking and sentenced to 20 years in prison.
But after she collaborated with the DOJ by giving two days of testimony, she was transferred from the hard FCI Tallahassee in Florida to a ‘Club-Fed’ Camp Bryan in Texas.
But she wants more.
She has been trying to overturn her conviction and sentence by filing various appeals, and she is also still seeking a pardon from President Donald J. Trump, according to her lawyer.
Politico reported:
“The remarks from Maxwell’s lawyer, David Oscar Markus, came during an on-stage conversation at an American Bar Association conference with Barry Pollack, the attorney for another high-profile defendant, deposed Venezuelan leader Nicolás Maduro.
During a discussion about their media strategy in which Markus derided reporting about Maxwell’s prison transfer to what some outlets have described as a ‘country club’-like prison facility, Pollack suggested one goal in talking to reporters might be to alter the public perception of a defendant in hopes of leniency from the president.
‘I can imagine, for example, maybe you’re hoping — not in that case, but in a case — to get a presidential pardon or commutation’, Pollack said, at which point Markus interjected with a smirk to say, ‘that case, too’.”
“Pollack continued: ‘and maybe if the public hates your client, thinks that you’ve already gotten a sweetheart deal, it may be politically more difficult for the president to do that. But maybe if you set the record straight a little bit, it’s a little easier’.”
