In response to Ghislaine Maxwell's appeal, the United States government submitted a brief urging the Second Circuit Court of Appeals to uphold her conviction and sentence. The government contended that Maxwell's arguments lacked merit, emphasizing that her prosecution was not barred by Jeffrey Epstein's 2007 non-prosecution agreement (NPA) with the Southern District of Florida. They argued that the NPA did not extend immunity to Maxwell for crimes prosecuted in the Southern District of New York, asserting that her conviction was based on substantial evidence demonstrating her pivotal role in facilitating Epstein's sexual abuse of minors.
Additionally, the government's brief addressed Maxwell's claims of juror misconduct and alleged procedural errors during the trial. They maintained that the district court had appropriately handled these issues, ensuring Maxwell's right to a fair trial was preserved. The government further argued that the sentence imposed was reasonable and proportionate to the severity of her offenses. Ultimately, the Second Circuit Court of Appeals affirmed Maxwell's conviction and sentence, rejecting her appeal and supporting the government's position.
