Ghislaine Maxwell’s appeal originated from her conviction in December 2021 for facilitating the sexual abuse of underage girls by Jeffrey Epstein. After being found guilty on five of six counts and sentenced in June 2022 to 20 years in prison, her legal team sought to overturn the conviction largely by arguing that a 2007 non-prosecution agreement (NPA) made between Epstein and federal prosecutors in Florida should have shielded her from being prosecuted in New York. They contended that the language in the NPA (“the United States … will not institute any criminal charges against any potential co-conspirators of Epstein”) prevented her prosecution as a co-conspirator.
However, her appeal ultimately failed. On September 17 2024 the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit affirmed the conviction, finding the Florida NPA did not bind the U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Southern District of New York. It also held the indictment was timely under the statute of limitations
