The Ghislaine Maxwell trial

There are landmark court trials littered through US history….Michael Jackson’s two trials and OJ Simpson. The Ghislaine Maxwell trial is poised to join them as a watershed hearing in front of the world’s media.

We cross to Seven’s US Bureau Chief Ashlee Mullany who is attending the court case in New York. We’ve already heard explosive claims and we’re only in the first few days of hearings.

Maxwell is accused of procuring teenage girls for the convicted child sex offender Jeffery Epstein, who took his own life two years ago. It’s long been suggested Epstein took his life to take his contacts and associates’ names with him. So, what secrets will be revealed at Maxwell’s trial? And will she implicate Prince Andrew? This trial looks set to join the list of notorious trials played out on the world stage.
