Ghislaine Maxwell's Last-Ditch Petition Rejected by Federal Judge as 'Meritless

A federal judge has rejected Ghislaine Maxwell's petition for a new trial, describing it as 'lengthy and rambling' while finding her claims to be 'all meritless'. The judge deemed Maxwell's arguments 'frivolous' and 'lacking substantial basis in fact or law'. Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking and other crimes related to Jeffrey Epstein. Her latest attempt to overturn her conviction was denied, with the judge finding her claims all but without merit.
