Her legal team filed the petition on Monday, arguing that the federal government must honor a 2007 non-prosecution agreement made with Epstein, which they say should have extended protection to Maxwell as well, according to Fox News Digital.<\/p>\n<p>Maxwell\u2019s attorneys contend that the government\u2019s interpretation of the agreement is flawed, accusing prosecutors of twisting its plain meaning. \u201cPromising \u2018not to prosecute\u2019 somehow meant preserving the right to prosecute. That is not contract interpretation; it is alchemy,\u201d the filing states. Prosecutors argue the agreement applied only within Florida, while Maxwell\u2019s case was prosecuted in New York, making the agreement irrelevant. However, Maxwell\u2019s defense insists there were no geographic limits or exceptions in the agreement and that she is a third-party beneficiary entitled to enforce it.<\/p>\n<p>The petition is the first step in Maxwell\u2019s effort to overturn her conviction, which resulted in a 20-year federal prison sentence for working with Epstein to abuse young girls. Her attorney, David Markus, said, \u201cOur government made a deal, and it must honor it,\u201d appealing to both the Supreme Court and President Trump to correct what they see as a profound injustice.<\/p>\n<p>President Trump recently said he has not yet considered pardoning or commuting Maxwell\u2019s sentence but did not rule out the possibility, calling it \u201cvery sensitive\u201d when asked about clemency.<\/p>\n<p>The details of recent meetings between Maxwell and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche remain undisclosed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ghislaine Maxwell, the former girlfriend and convicted accomplice of Jeffrey Epstein, is petitioning the U.S. Supreme Court to review her 2021 sex trafficking conviction.
