Rich and powerful Epstein pals on edge as Maxwell immunity deal looms large Nine Line News Team July 13, 2020 Nine Line News 213 The list of politicians, business leaders, entertainers and even royalty who allegedly hung out with Jeffrey Epstein and enjoyed the attentions of his harem of young girls is long. Former New Mexico governor Bill Richardson, famous attorney Alan Dershowitz, modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel, former U.S. senator George Mitchell and Britain’s Prince Andrew, Duke of York have all been named in court documents. Bill Clinton appeared on Epstein’s flight manifests 26 times between 2001 and 2003, butt here’s probably nothing fishy about that. And that doesn’t even count the names we DON’T know about. But all that may change soon. Epstein’s erstwhile girlfriend and fixer, Ghislaine Maxwell, was arrested in New Hampshire last week, and according to legal experts, may be willing to spill the beans. The 58-year-old wealthy socialite had been hiding out in a $1 million house she bought quietly with cash in December. According to NBC News, Maxwell was charged with six counts for acts committed between 1994 and 1997 and then allegedly lying to investigators in 2016. Four counts are related to allegedly helping transport minors for sexual activity and two for perjury, according to the criminal complaint. She faces up to 35 years in jail for the crimes. “Maxwell played a critical role in helping Epstein identify, befriend and groom minor victims for abuse,” Acting U.S. Attorney Audrey Strauss told reporters in Manhattan. “In some cases, Maxwell participated in the abuse herself.” She is scheduled to appear in court next week via video for a bail hearing. Prosecutors say no bail should be set because Maxwell is an extreme flight risk. #Understatement. She has three passports, access to buckets of cash, and a long, long list of people who’d like her “little black book” to remain secret. Federal criminal defense attorney Gregg Lerman speculates Maxwell’s attorneys are likely urging her right now to cooperate with federal prosecutors in exchange for a lesser sentence using a tool called “Queen for a Day.” Just like it says, you’re the queen for the day, you get to talk about what you know, who you know and that information cannot be used against you,” said Lerman, who has no ties to Maxwell’s case. Per WBPF, Queen for a Day letters are written agreements between federal prosecutors and defendants. In a one-day oral session, Maxwell can reveal with immunity everything she knows about the case, with the assumption the government will agree to cut a deal. Prosecutors cannot use the evidence given in the session against her but can pursue other co-conspirators based on what she tells them and can back up with documents or photos or other corroborating items. Ooh, that could be interesting, given what we’ve heard about Epstein’s vast library of video footage from his Caribbean and New Mexico hideaways. And the alleged existence of the “little black book.” The only downside for Maxwell is if prosecutors discover she lied during her Queen for a Day session, the agreement becomes null and void and the information can be used against her in court. Prince Andrew knows something about queens – considering his mother is actually THE Queen. He’s probably not the only one right now worried Maxwell will accept the crown for a day. That is, as long as she’s alive…
