and frustrated. look, she s entitled to sue the estate of jeffrey epstein. that s what she s doing. she s entitled to compensation for the horror that she underwent, that he deserves, that she could get that from the estate. but more important the enablers around him should be held accountable. ms. maxwell is one of them but there are others. all these children, these scores of children sexually abused over time, but the added level of horror to this story, it was the rich and the powerful that helped to perpetua te this scen, girls who were for the most part vulnerable, marginalized, poor. that s the real heinous part of this story. it s certainly an aspect of the heinous part of the story is the rich and powerful preying upon
the marginalized. and i hope and jennifer hopes those enablers will be held accountable no matter how rich, how powerful, and it is our hope the criminal authorities particularly the southern district of new york will continue to pursue that angle of the story. and just out of curiosity, does your client have information about other rich powerful people who preyed on her and other girls? the only knowledge she knows of that is when she was being preyed upon at 14 years old, mr. epstein would regularly remind her of his rich and powerful connections. his walls were covered with photographs of him and powerful politicians as she recalled and powerful people in one type or another. he would constantly remind her of those connections. that s one of the tools he used to intimidate these girls, keep them in line. but she didn t have any interaction with those people other tan the photograph?
because of her efforts she recruited the recruiters, she provided the administrative support, and this is all publicly available information, she engaged in efforts to intimidate witnesses to help conseal this ring. so ms. maxwell was a conspirator with mr. epstein. and that ring in turn victimized all sorts of girls whether ms. maxwell personally met them or not. and given that role she is viable to my client well-all sorts of girls she may never have met. she helped maintain the conspiracy and as such she s a coconspirator responsible for the horror that unfolded. and now that jeffrey epstein is dead, how does this complicate your client s case. ideally my client is angry
apparent suicide in jail. this news comes as one of epstein s accusers files a civil lawsuit against his estate and his long time companion gilan maxwell and three other people. jennifer arrows says she was recruited in 2001 when she was 14 years old and epstein raped her one year later. attorneys for epstein did not respond to comments about this lawsuit. joining now is the attorney for arose. it let me read to you what your client wrote in this op-ed in the new york times yesterday. she says during my freshman year a stranger approached me on the sidewalk outside of my high school. the recruiter told me about a wealthy man she knew.
when i confided i had recently lost my father and my family was living on food stamps she told me he was very caring and wanted to help us financially. the trap was set. who was that recruiter? we don t know the identity of the recruiter at this time. this was 14 years ago or more for jennifer. we re trying to get information to identify who that recruiter is. and when we do we ll be able to name them in the complaint. but the fact is mr. epstein surrounded himself by all sort of adult enablers. explain the galen maxwell connection because she was his long time confidant, friend, companion. since your client is suing her, what role did she play in all of this? she was a principle conspirator that helped maintain this sex human trafficking ring.
