Ghislaine Maxwell Demands Conviction Be Overturned
Ghislaine Maxwell has asked a judge to cancel her 2021 sex-trafficking conviction.
Maxwell was found guilty of conspiring with financier Jeffrey Epstein to abuse underage girls. Her legal team now argues she did not receive a fair trial.
In a new court filing, her lawyers claim a juror gave incorrect answers during the jury selection process. They say this invalidates the verdict.
Maxwell is serving a 20-year prison sentence. The judge will review the request. A decision is not expected immediately.
