Good luck finding out anything about the ongoing trial of Jeffrey Epstein’s lover and co-conspirator, Ghislaine Maxwell.
Ever since Jeffrey Epstein “committed suicide” while under constant police surveillance—and then the videotape of the incident disappeared—the media decided that the case was shut. Nothing to see here!
Not even the surprising link between the trial and Fox News star Chris Wallace has made headlines.
The fact that Epstein’s love interest and alleged partner-in-crime, Ghislaine Maxwell, is under trial seems almost like a state secret.
The only aspect of the trial the news media reported on is the fact that one of the girls Maxwell groomed for sex, a 14-year-old that the court named only as “Jane,” supposedly met former President Donald Trump.
But reporters are leaving out a lot of details—and embarrassing names—from their reports.
Maxwell appears to be trying to embarrass or implicate famous celebrities in an effort to win leniency for herself. Trump was one of the people whose name she dropped in court on Wednesday.
The girl said that she met future President Donald Trump sometime in the 1990s at Mar-a-Lago, Trump’s estate in Palm Beach, Florida.
“Mr. Epstein introduced you to Donald Trump, correct?” asked Maxwell’s defense attorney, Laura Menninger.
“Yes,” the woman replied… and that’s all that she said.
“Jane didn’t allege any improper behavior by Trump and didn’t go into further detail about why she was at the resort,” NBC News reported earlier this week.
Now, the Fake News media have what they want: Donald Trump is named in the Epstein trial.
But what about Bill Clinton, who flew on the Lolita Express at least 26 times?
What about another name that came up at trial: former newsman Mike Wallace of 60 Minutes and father of Fox News star Chris Wallace?
Jane said Epstein’s circle included such famous people as “Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Mike Wallace.”
"Jane" gives some examples of famous people they boasted about being associated with: "Donald Trump, Bill Clinton, Mike Wallace."

“Jane” testified that she sang “Happy Birthday” to Mike Wallace on his 60th birthday. She would have been 15 at the time.
Mike’s son, Chris, hosts Fox News Sunday, and last year a viral picture was supposed to have shown the younger Wallace with Epstein. But it turned out the picture actually showed Chris Wallace with George Clooney.
“Jane” also said she had flown on a plane with British royal Prince Andrew. That verifies charges made by another accuser, Virginia Giuffre, who said that Epstein and Maxwell trafficked her to Prince Andrew when she was a 17-year-old girl. The prince gave a strange, wandering denial.
Defense attorneys tried to say that “Jane” was a professional actress and that she had a financial stake in getting Maxwell convicted, because she received $2.9 million from a victim’s compensation fund.
“I wish I would have never received that money in the first place because of what happened,” the young lady said, as she stopped and cried for 30 seconds straight. “In this country, compensation is the only thing you could get when you try to move on with your life and the pain and abuse and suffering I received… and try to fix myself.”
She said she would not receive any money one way or another from the Maxwell trial.
It’s not incredibly clear whether she’s telling the truth. On day three of the trial, “Jane” got “grilled by defense attorneys over apparent inconsistencies between her testimony and what she had told the feds previously,” according to the New York Post.
But Jane said no one recorded her previous statements and explained away any of her inconsistencies by saying, “I was sitting in a room full of strangers and telling them the most shameful, deepest secrets that I’d been carrying around with me my whole life.”
Her secrets are coming to light. What other names will be dragged into the spotlight over the next few weeks?
