Ghislaine Maxwell’s efforts to secure a retrial faced daunting legal obstacles from the start.

The newly surfaced Epstein–Maxwell emails destroy the carefully maintained image that Ghislaine Maxwell was little more than a bystander in Epstein’s orbit. The sheer volume of correspondence—thousands of messages, including more than 200 in the months just before Epstein’s 2008 indictment—shows her still playing an active, managerial role long after she claimed to have distanced herself. These ar...
