00:00I wonder if any of the victims could respond to the news from recently about Ghislaine Maxwell

00:04being transferred to a lower security prison in the afternoon.

00:10You want that one?

00:11About her transfer.

00:14I'm happy to speak to that.

00:17We were horrified to learn that she had been transferred to a prison camp.

00:23She is someone who was found guilty by a jury of sex trafficking.

00:28We often hear that she procured women for Jeffrey, which I think is a very polite and minimizing term.

00:36She also participated in the abuse.

00:39She was a major architect of the scheme.

00:42And the fact that she has painted herself as a victim I think is disgusting.

00:45And it was horrifying, I think, to us that we were not told about her prison transfer.

01:32I was abused by Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell for over 10 years.

01:48Ghislaine Maxwell was present for some of my abuse at the hand of Jeffrey Epstein.

01:53She was present, she was complicit, she was enabling, and it is appalling and disgusting.

01:59And it's one of my worst nightmares that she not only be transferred,

02:04but at the possibility that's very much going around that she might be pardoned.

02:08This is not okay, guys.

02:10This is not okay.

02:11And I just want to add that I think it sends a very dangerous message to our country,

02:16to the young people in our country,

02:17that someone that we all know is aware of these crimes could be given a pass.

02:20And just for the last one, but the last one,
