In reply to the discussion: Ghislaine Maxwell found guilty in sex-trafficking trial [View all]muriel_volestrangler
(101,421 posts)9. BBC - one of the guilty charges is sex trafficking a minor, the most serious
What was she found guilty of?
Maxwell has been found guilty on five of six counts - including the most serious charge, that of sex trafficking of a minor.
This carries a possible 40-year sentence, which means the 60-year-old could spend the rest of her life behind bars.
This charge relates to the testimony of Carolyn, who testified about being paid for sex during visits to Epstein's Florida home between 2001 and 2004.
At the time of her first visit, she was just 14.
