NEW YORK (Reuters) – A woman who said she was a victim of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking urged a U.S. appeals court on Wednesday to unseal a deposition by Ghislaine Maxwell that the British socialite, who faces criminal charges she aided Epstein’s abuses, has fought to keep out of the public eye.
Lawyers for Virginia Giuffre made the request in a filing with the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Manhattan, ahead of oral arguments scheduled for Sept. 22.
