Jeffrey Epstein's sexual abuse key survivor Virginia Giuffre’s family urged US President Donald Trump not to pardon the financier's partner, Ghislaine Maxwell.
According to NBC News, after Trump claimed that the sex offender "stole" Giuffre from his Mar-a-Lago club in Palm Beach, Florida, her family raised questions regarding the Republican president’s actions after the incident.
The family stated on Wednesday, July 30, “It was shocking to hear President Trump invoke our sister and say that he was aware that Virginia had been 'stolen' from Mar-a-Lago. It makes us ask if he was aware of Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell's criminal actions.”
“Especially given his statement two years later that his good friend Jeffrey 'likes women on the younger side... no doubt about it.' We and the public are asking for answers; survivors deserve this,” the statement continued.
The family members Sky and Amanda Roberts and Danny and Lanette Wilson also emphasised that they are still "reeling" from Giuffre's suicide in April this year.
Giuffre's family also revealed that their sister became a victim of Maxwell's abuse while working at Mar-a-Lago in 2000, at the age of 16, which was four years before Trump-Epstein fell out.
Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year sentence at the Florida jail.
