Ghislaine Maxwell’s Bombshell Filing

February 7, 2026 · 11:48 am ET · Leave a Comment

Dina Doll: “Buried in a footnote of Ghislaine Maxwell’s court filing, she makes the bombshell claim that there twenty-five accomplices of Jeffrey Epstein entered into secret settlements and that there are four unnamed employee co-conspirators of Epstein.”

“The fact is, Maxwell is no longer content with the conditions of her confinement. She has tasted a glimpse of freedom and appears determined to push for more. After losing her appeal to the Supreme Court, she filed a habeas corpus petition. This is the legal equivalent of a last resort. It asks a court to overturn a conviction on the grounds that it is so fundamentally unfair or unconstitutional that it cannot stand, even after all other appellate avenues have been exhausted.”

“In her petition, Maxwell alleges that twenty-five accomplices of Epstein entered into secret agreements with Epstein survivors through their lawyers. She also asserts that four employees of Epstein were co-conspirators but were never charged. Maxwell does not stop there. She specifically names two men closely associated with both Epstein and Donald Trump: Leon Black and Leslie Wexner.”

“When you piece it altogether Maxwell’s court filling starts looking less like a plea to a Judge but a pardon plea to Trump.”
