Ghislaine Maxwell has been arrested.

[ArriettyJones]

By the FBI.

Some good need for a change.

Yes, I get such a sinking feeling when people say GM will never see the inside of a courtroom. I so long for those girls to get justice

Exactly.

It's like, how can we seriously sit here just accepting that that's the way it is? We know it and we just accept it, as we think there's nothing we can do.

I will truly enjoy the day that someone comes along and reminds us that WE have much more control, to do or not do things, to take part in or not take part in things. I'll be like Lieutenant Dan up the flag pole in the storm, cheering the great awakening on.

I truly hope enough people decide that we wont just accept this shit and this double standard.

@Haut

It'll be interesting to see who else she drops in it.

Throw away the key, absolute horror of a woman.

Like father like daughter.

That's the way the world works though. People with money and power will always win, it's nothing new. The Clintons have got away with bigger crimes than trafficking so they will survive this, ditto Trump and if Tony Blair's involved, well he's a master of cover ups. Its frustrating but money talks.

How long before she succumbs to the coronavirus?

@HannahStern

Will Britain extradite Prince Andrew?

Maybe once mummy and daddy have passed away - can't be more than 10 years.

I am fairly sure GM & BoJo would have overlapped at Oxford. I know someone who was there at the same time as both of them.

Also Harvey Weinstein finally got his comeuppance. So hopefully GM will too.

There is absolutely no way Andrew would be extradited to the US while the Queen is alive, however serious the allegations or strong the evidence against him.

When Queenie dies, however, it may be a very different matter. Andrew is not popular, he has rubbed a lot of powerful people up the wrong way, and he and his older brother are not close - to put it mildly...

They were also both at Balliol

People with money and power will always win, it's nothing new.

Not always. Epstein - who was more fabulously wealthy than most can even imagine - died in prison; Ghislane Maxwell has now been found and arrested.

Also Weinstein

I don't understand the allegations against Andrew. He met her in London and she was of age. What is he being accused of exactly? As she was there already, I guess he can't be accused of trafficking her.

Can anyone explain? Thanks.

I'm not of any of it tbh.

Was so happy to see that on the news earlier. Horrible creature.

Whats them being at the same university got to do with anything?

I’m annoyed that Robert Maxwell isn’t mentioned in lots of the media outlets. He was an odious toad if there ever was one.

As they sat, the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree!

@EachandEveryone

Whats them being at the same university got to do with anything?

someone was speculating upthread about it.

I reckon she might have been 2 years ahead of BoJo at Balliol, it is very likely that they moved in overlapping social circles.

It's interesting, that's all.

I’m annoyed that Robert Maxwell isn’t mentioned in lots of the media outlets. He was an odious toad if there ever was one. True. His children suffered terribly.

3 x passports, living in plain sight in a $million home paid for in cash. Needs to be in jail because she will be on a private jet given the opportunity or else falling from a private jet. Andy can now get his expensive barrister working but no way is he going to the US. He enjoys diplomatic immunity. Maybe a chat in Windsor Castle over scones and tea will be as good as it gets.

It shall be very interesting to see how she will drag down with her

I hope the victims get some sort of justice

@derxa really don’t care for his children, especially Ghislaine. The boat that RM well off of was named after Ghislaine.
I feel a hell of a lot more for the victims of JE and GM.
GM deserves everything she gets and some. Odious, like her father.

I truly hope this case blows wide open and nothing get hushed up or prematurely suicided. Maybe she has a system in place to release videos/documents in the event of her death. 2020 has been one hell of a year, and exposing all the abusers who thought they were untouchable would be an insane final act.

@AgeLikeWine do you mean the Queen is protecting him? How would she do that?

Don't know how but I've only just managed to spot this news.

About time this happened. I've just recently watched the Netflix doc on Epstein and assumed she was going to end up getting away. There were rumours she was hiding in Israel.

Off to read the rest of the thread now.
