Acerca de esta escucha

Ghislaine is fighting criminal charges including, sex trafficking of a minor for the purpose of aiding Jeffery Epstein in his debauchery. So what exactly was her relationship with him? Jeffrey’s wealth was extremely important. But when you take away the money, what you find is something far short of a love affair.©2021 James Patterson Entertainment, LLC (P)2021 Audible Originals, LLC

Maxwell is an interesting player in the horror that was Epstein’s abusive and criminal behaviour. There are some very eye opening facts about the relationship and the control Epstein had because of his ill gotten fortune. However the criminal acts she participated are not explained except for the greed she had. She wanted money because her family money had been taken away by the UK government for her father’s embezzlement. The real question is what did the other well known rich personages have to gain by hanging out with Epstein? Ugh, that’s the real takeaway here.

Certain very interesting facts about the relationship

The stories that make up this horrific true crime sequence of events, are tragic. Even with Ghilaine Maxwell behind bars and Epstein dead, the victims don't win. This book did explain the time line of events well. However, it falls flat in the delivery of information. At one point, Ward confirms that the voice overs were added because the original tapes had gotten lost. It sounds tacky and way too scripted.

Narrated like an exaggerated soap opera...

She is a monster. She was his procurer. She witnessed rape and abuse and covered for him. I have no sympathy for her.

Is she saying Ghislaine Maxwell is a victim?!

Vicky Ward had the chance, and the evidence, to report Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse and exploitation of underage girls in 2002. But she was so caught up in writing a typical Vanity Fair story about money and glamour that she missed it. For this, she blames her editor, and claims that people were not sensitive to such issues in the pre-#Metoo era — by the way, and era brought about by New York Times and New Yorker reporting.
Maybe she worked for a superficial editor, but maybe she was just not receptive to hearing stories about the exploitation of poor young women. (How many Vanity Fair stories take an interest in anything like that?)
Ward claims the reason why she should be the one to report this story is because she knew her — though, it turns out they barely knew one another. I’m fact, she saw her at parties. She was part of her social set, which makes it difficult for her to see through the veneer of glitz, money, and glamour. In fact, this myopia and insider status makes Ward unable to report this story. She seems to be unable to employ any critical thinking skills

Disappointing
