COVER STORY: Who was Jeffrey Epstein’s victim, Virginia Giuffre?
Virginia Giuffre was a 16-year-old employee at Mar-a-Lago in 2000 when she said she was recruited by Ghislane Maxwell into Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking ring, which Maxwell denies. Before she died by suicide earlier this year, Giuffre wrote a memoir, “Nobody’s Girl,” and sought the release of the Epstein files, currently under the control of the Trump administration. Tracy Smith talks with Amy Wallace, co-author of Giuffre, and her brother and sister-in-law, about the woman who was Giuffre, her life after Epstein, and whether Maxwell – now imprisoned for sex trafficking – should be pardoned.
