Ghislaine Maxwell, the Jeffrey Epstein associate who was convicted of sex trafficking, has said she was improperly prosecuted and wants the Supreme Court to hear her appeal.

Ghislaine Maxwell’s legal team moved forward with appealing her case to the Supreme Court on Monday, three days after the accomplice of Jeffrey Epstein met with a top Justice Department official. The convicted child sex trafficker’s team filed a new brief with the Supreme Court urging it to overturn her conviction.
