Why Is Ghislaine Maxwell’s Defense So Intent on Talking About Jeffrey Epstein’s Famous Friends. Good Question!

A little past 11 a.m. on day two of the Ghislaine Maxwell trial and the words “former president #BillClinton” made their first appearance in the courtroom. Minutes after, the name #LesWexner—described by a defense attorney as the “billionaire owner of The Limited”—also made its way into the official record. One hour later, the following question was posed to a witness: “Are you familiar with Prince Andrew, the Duke of York?” And then came a flurry of namedrops that included Donald Trump, John Glenn, Kevin Spacey, and #ChrisTucker.

But what kind of defense is that? Why does the defense want Bill Clinton, Donald Trump, Prince Andrew, and others to play roles in this story? Not clear yet. But Maxwell’s lawyers wouldn’t be asking about these men if there weren’t some specific purpose in mind. It could be as simple as pushing the notion that these flights could not possibly have involved any monkey business given that famous people with reputations to protect were involved. Or it could be a way of making Epstein look like a man way too important and successful to be connected with such yucky stuff. Perhaps you feel that these particular guys are not associations that speak well of Epstein. But the defense could be betting that the jury is less informed about these men, and more easily wowed by the mention of royalty, presidents, and movie stars. That’s just one guess. Where this thread is leading remains to be seen. In my opinion, it's all smoke. It's a way to get the attention off of #ghislainemaxwell's sexual involvement and procurement of girls for Epstein and other wealthy men for BLACKMAIL! Defense is also sending a message to those named, perhaps for a life jacket to keep Maxwell from going down alone.
