One of Jeffrey Epstein’s victims is finally getting the last laugh on her abuser and his friends.
Virginia Giuffre, one of Epstein’s victims who sued over claims she was sex trafficked to Prince Andrew when she was underage, called the pending release of 170 names with ties to Epstein and his madam, Ghislaine Maxwell, an early Christmas present.
“Merry early Christmas — Dozens of Jeffrey Epstein associates, victims likely to publicly ID’d in court docs in coming weeks — thank you and many blessings for Judge Preska. A truth seeker & justice maker,” she wrote on Twitter.
Giuffre also said there were “going to be a lot of nervous [people] over Christmas and New Years” and wondered, “who’s on the naughty list?”
Finally we are hearing members of the US government senators about the need for transparency and a call to arms for accountability!! There’s going to be a lot of nervous ppl over Christmas and New Years, 170 to be exact, who’s on the naughty list? This would t be possible without… https://t.co/xVfFfQ0UMH

The people whose names are to be disclosed include some of Epstein’s former employees and those with connections to the deceased billionaire pedophile during the time of his sex trafficking ring. They have until Jan. 1 to appeal the court order, signed Monday by Judge Loretta A. Preska.
For several years, Preska has reviewed documents sought by the Miami Herald from the civil case, filed by Giuffre, which eventually was settled for $12 million.
Some of the records related to that lawsuit have been slowly released in past years, but on Monday the judge made determinations about some portions of the records that were initially withheld on potential privacy grounds and what can be made public about certain people mentioned in the records.
In some instances, she noted that individuals had given media interviews or that their names had previously emerged publicly in various ways, including at a trial two years ago of Maxwell.
Preska concluded that some portions of the records should remain confidential, including those identifying people who were children when they were sexually abused by Epstein who have tried to maintain their privacy.
The Epstein case has spawned countless conspiracy theories about the possible involvement of rich and powerful people around the world who were involved in sex trafficking — names that could finally be revealed in the coming weeks.
Epstein died under mysterious circumstances in August 2019 while in a federal lockup in Manhattan as he awaited trial on sex trafficking charges.
He was accused of luring numerous underage girls to his private jet and island home, nicknamed “orgy island,” and sexually abusing them.
Maxwell, 61, is serving a 20-year prison sentence after she was convicted in December 2021 of helping Epstein recruit and sexually abuse underage girls around the world.
