Ghislaine Maxwell Charged with Sex Trafficking 14-Year-Old Girl
---------------------------------------------------------------

In more news from New York, Ghislaine Maxwell - the British socialite
who is accused of luring girls to be sexually abused by convicted
predator and sex trafficker Jeffrey Epstein - has been indicted on two
more sex trafficking charges, including trafficking a minor. The
indictment says Maxwell met the girl, who was about 14 at the time, at
Epstein's Florida home around 2001, and that the girl had been
"recruited to provide Epstein with sexualized massages." The indictment
also extends the timeframe Maxwell collaborated with Epstein by several
years, starting in 1994 to 2004.
