Ghislaine Maxwell And Her Years Long Lawsuit Against The Jeffrey Epstein Estate · The Epstein Chronicles

• 0:00
  Speaker 1: What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
• 0:05
  Speaker 1: Glaigne Maxwell has attempted to get Jeffrey Epstein's estate to
• 0:09
  Speaker 1: pay her legal bills for years now. Well. The estate
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: has now said in core documents that since Glaine Maxwell
• 0:17
  Speaker 1: doesn't have a lawyer representing her, that the case against
• 0:21
  Speaker 1: the estate should be thrown out and that they shouldn't
• 0:24
  Speaker 1: be on the hook for paying any of Glaine Maxwell's fees.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: Can you imagine being this audacious, thinking that you have
• 0:31
  Speaker 1: some kind of entitlement to money from this estate after
• 0:34
  Speaker 1: you've been convicted of human trafficking due to your behavior,
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: due to your actions while with Jeffrey Epstein, and then
• 0:42
  Speaker 1: you have the audacity to show up talking about how
• 0:44
  Speaker 1: you're owed anything from any body. The fact that so
• 0:48
  Speaker 1: many people have gotten rich on the back of this
• 0:52
  Speaker 1: is enough to make me ill. Now, I'd be more
• 0:54
  Speaker 1: willing to just shake my head and accept it if
• 0:57
  Speaker 1: there was some justice that came along with all of that,
• 1:00
  Speaker 1: But there hasn't been. All there's been is a bunch
• 1:03
  Speaker 1: of settlements, a bunch of hush money, and no justice
• 1:06
  Speaker 1: for anybody involved. And at this point, I think we
• 1:09
  Speaker 1: all just have to concede and accept the fact that
• 1:12
  Speaker 1: there's not going to be any justice when it comes
• 1:15
  Speaker 1: to this case. Today's article is from Inside Edition. The
• 1:19
  Speaker 1: author of this article is Chris Spargo. Glenn Maxwell has
• 1:23
  Speaker 1: not had legal representation in the case since September of
• 1:27
  Speaker 1: last year, when her council announced that they would be
• 1:30
  Speaker 1: stepping down. In a filing that claim that they're convicted
• 1:34
  Speaker 1: sex offender, client owed them eight hundred and seventy eight thousand,
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: three hundred and two dollars and sixty six cents in
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: unpaid fees. So, because Maxwell doesn't have legal representation, the
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: estate saying that she has no basis to go after
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: this money. Now, is that going to be a winning
• 1:52
  Speaker 1: strategy for the estate. We'll have to see. But I
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: honestly have no idea how any judge anywhere in the
• 1:59
  Speaker 1: world can you'd give Gleann Maxwell a settlement. Here, lawyers
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: representing the estate of Jeffrey Epstein are asking a judge
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: in the Virgin Islands to dismiss the lawsuit filed by
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: Glene Maxwell in twenty twenty seeking millions of dollars to
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: cover her legal fees. In emotion filed last week obtained
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: by Inside Edition Digital. Lawyers for the estate and its executors,
• 2:23
  Speaker 1: Darren Endyke and Richard Kahn, noted that Maxwell has not
• 2:27
  Speaker 1: had legal representation in the case since September of last year,
• 2:32
  Speaker 1: when her council announced that they would be stepping down
• 2:35
  Speaker 1: and filing that claimed their convicted sex offender client owed
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: them eight hundred seventy eight thousand, three hundred and two
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: dollars and sixty five cents, And we talked about it
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: at the time when the story was breaking that Maxwell
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: was going to have trouble paying for her legal fees
• 2:53
  Speaker 1: because she got hosed by her ex husband, Scott Borgerson,
• 2:56
  Speaker 1: and according to Maxwell, that left her unable to pay
• 2:59
  Speaker 1: for her new legal representation and in a position where
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: she didn't have the funds to keep the expensive battle
• 3:05
  Speaker 1: going inside of the court, so her only option really
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: was to try and get some funds from the estate,
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: which she says that Jeffrey Epstein promised her if she
• 3:14
  Speaker 1: ever got in legal trouble. The estate, however, says there
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: was never any legal documentation that was entered into by
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: Epstein and Maxwell that would guarantee her anything as far
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: as her bills being paid if she ever got in trouble.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: Maxwell has contended that she had an agreement from Epstein
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: that was signed on a napkin. They drew it up
• 3:35
  Speaker 1: on a napkin, and according to her, that's a legal
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: document and it's binding. So that's been the battle between
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: the estate and Glene Maxwell for years now, and it
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: seems like it's starting to heat up a little bit
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: due to these circumstances. The estate is asking the judge
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: to dismiss the proceedings over what they allege is Maxwell's
• 3:54
  Speaker 1: failure to prosecute. Court filing show that Maxwell sixty one
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: had has twice been instructed to retain new council and
• 4:03
  Speaker 1: on both occasions did not apply with the court's request.
• 4:07
  Speaker 1: So if the court orders you to do something and
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: you don't comply, there's going to be repercussions for that.
• 4:13
  Speaker 1: And for Glenn Maxwell, she's in jeopardy of getting this
• 4:16
  Speaker 1: whole entire motion tossed out on its ass. You have
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: to have legal counsel, you have to do everything the
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: court's telling you to do if you want to have
• 4:24
  Speaker 1: a valid case. Lawyers for Epstein's estate filed their motion
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: one hundred and eighty days after a March seventeenth hearing,
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: during which the judge in the case instructed Maxwell to
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: obtain legal counsel in the next sixty days if she
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: wished to pursue her lawsuit. Maxwell's counsel withdrew from representation
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: over one year ago, and since that time this case
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: has lain dormant. Though the court has granted her ample
• 4:52
  Speaker 1: time to find new counsel and ordered her to do so,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: Maxwell has not done so. The Epstein's estate motion reads Additionally,
• 5:01
  Speaker 1: to the extent Maxwell is unable to retain new counsel,
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: nothing precludes her from litigating her claims pro say, but
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: she has thus far declined to do so. Accordingly, the
• 5:12
  Speaker 1: court should dismiss Maxwell's complaint. The filing also requests that
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: Maxwell be ordered to make an appearance in court within
• 5:21
  Speaker 1: thirty days if the motion to dismiss is denied by
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: the judge. It has been nearly four years since Maxwell
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: filed her lawsuit, requesting that Epstein's estate coverer, attorney's fees,
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: security costs, cost a, find safe accommodation, and all other expenses.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Maxwell has reasonably incurred and will incur by reason of
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: her prior employment relationship with Jeffrey E. Epstein, As if
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: she was just an employee, a hired gun folks, somebody
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: that he brought in on a temporary basis that he
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: got from we work. Give me a break with the bullshit.
• 5:56
  Speaker 1: Epstein and Maxwell had a verbal agreement that he would
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: prove aviied for her in this capacity, she claimed in
• 6:02
  Speaker 1: her initial filing. Maxwell receives regular threats to her life
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: and safety which have required her to hire personal security
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: services and find safe accommodations. And this is why she
• 6:15
  Speaker 1: said she needed to move thirty six times. Remember when
• 6:18
  Speaker 1: she was on the lamb, how she moved thirty six times.
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: This is why she said she had to keep going
• 6:23
  Speaker 1: because she was being chased by the media. She was
• 6:26
  Speaker 1: being hounded by people who were threatening her. Meanwhile, nobody
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: could even find her, not even the court. The lawsuit
• 6:32
  Speaker 1: claims that Maxwell worked for Epstein for a number of
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: his companies as a property manager until two thousand and one,
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: at which point she scaled back her role until two
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: thousand and four when she started her own business. Yeah,
• 6:46
  Speaker 1: the business of bringing girls to Jeffrey Epstein, the business
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: of enriching herself on the back of all kinds of
• 6:52
  Speaker 1: criminal behavior, the business of being a bipedal serpent, her
• 6:57
  Speaker 1: own business. What do you mean, Tamar, the business that
• 7:00
  Speaker 1: the Clintons were involved in. Yeah, you know the Clintons
• 7:03
  Speaker 1: who invited her to their daughter's wedding. Oh let's not
• 7:07
  Speaker 1: talk about that though, right God forbid the Clintons get
• 7:10
  Speaker 1: called out for their bullshit. When she did leave, Maxwell
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: claims that Epstein promised to provide for her moving forward,
• 7:17
  Speaker 1: and alleges that he did in fact did so when
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: she was later sued by two of his victims, Sarah
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Ransom and Virginia Roberts. So basically, what Galenne Maxwell's telling
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: us is that Jeffrey Epstein paid her hush money by
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: paying for lawyers and paying for her legal fees. That's
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: all that is. That's legal hush money, folks. In approximately
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: two thousand and four, Maxwell received a typewritten letter from
• 7:41
  Speaker 1: Epstein with a handwritten note asking Maxwell to remain in
• 7:45
  Speaker 1: Epstein's employ and promising that no matter what Maxwell chose
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: to do, Epstein would always support Maxwell financially, the lawsuit claims.
• 7:54
  Speaker 1: In the filing, Maxwell said that the lawsuits against her
• 7:58
  Speaker 1: began to pile up after Ebstein agreed to his now
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: infamous sweetheart plea deal in two thousand and eight, a
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: non prosecution agreement that protected Epstein from ever facing federal
• 8:09
  Speaker 1: charges in exchange for a guilty plea to stay charges
• 8:13
  Speaker 1: of soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution. This federally
• 8:18
  Speaker 1: broker deal allowed Epstein to serve just thirteen months of
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: an eighteen month sentence, but also required that he settled
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: any civil suits filed against him by the approximately forty
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: underage victims who spoke with police. Maxwell has incurred and
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: will continue to incur, significant legal fees, personal security costs,
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: and other costs in connection with legal suits, proceedings, and
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: investigations relating to Epstein, his affiliated businesses, and his alleged victims.
• 8:48
  Speaker 1: The lawsuit says, well, here's an idea. Don't work for
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: a guy like Epstein, don't get in business with them,
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: and don't molest little girls with them. Then you won't
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: have to worry about going broke. Pretty simple, right. Maxwell's
• 9:01
  Speaker 1: legal bills rose astronomically in the years after she filed
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: her lawsuit, to enlarge part to her indictment and eventual
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: conviction on multiple federal felony charges, including sex trafficking of
• 9:13
  Speaker 1: a miner, transporting a miner with the intent to engage
• 9:17
  Speaker 1: in criminal sexual activity, and conspiracy to transport miners with
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: intent to engage in criminal sexual activity. All of this
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: stuff is reco predicate, by the way, including the Man Act.
• 9:29
  Speaker 1: But none of that stuff was used here. But that's
• 9:31
  Speaker 1: okay because we had a SECO case down in the
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: US Virgin Islands and that worked out so well for
• 9:37
  Speaker 1: everybody involved. You know, the survivors really benefited from all
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: those proceedings that happened down there in the United States
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: Virgin Islands, right, everybody got rich from it, well, everybody
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: but the survivors. Her subsequent sentencing did, however, lower her
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: alleged security costs, as she is now under constant surveillance
• 9:57
  Speaker 1: as a member of the prison population at FCI Tallahassee,
• 10:02
  Speaker 1: where she will not be eligible for parole until twenty
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: thirty seven. Lawyers for Epstein's estate did not respond to
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: a request for comment, and that's been pretty common, a
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: wall of silence coming from Epstein's estate and not answering
• 10:16
  Speaker 1: any questions from the media. And why would they. They
• 10:20
  Speaker 1: have nothing to gain by talking to the media, so
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: why do it? And as far as Glenn Maxwell getting
• 10:25
  Speaker 1: her legal bills paid. Here With as much of a
• 10:27
  Speaker 1: shit show as this whole entire operation is, I wouldn't
• 10:30
  Speaker 1: be shocked to see them open the checkbook and just
• 10:32
  Speaker 1: give her some money. At this point, everybody else is
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: getting money, Why not Glane Maxwell too? All right, folks,
• 10:38
