Ghislaine Maxwell short on dough, stakes legal claim to $636m Epstein estate
[MAIL] Jeffrey Epstein's 'madam' Ghislaine Maxwell is trying to get cash from the dead child molester's estate to pay off her legal fees.

Maxwell has filed paperwork in the US Virgin Islands for a piece of the disgraced financier's estimated $636 million estate, because, she says, he promised to pay for her lawyers.

The 58-year-old British socialite ‐ who has been in hiding for months ‐made the claim on Friday, five days before Wednesday's deadline for such a claim, according to the New York Times.

Maxwell wants the money to pay for legal expenses for suits from women who say she procured them to give sexual services to Epstein while they were still teenagers.

In her suit, Maxwell describes herself as a longtime employee who had 'a legal and special relationship' with Epstein, who was found dead in his cell in New York last August.

#1 Poor baby, my heart is going out to her.

#2 Unless she can show a written contract or video of him making that promise, I suspect that won’t happen. What say Rantburg’s legal contingent?

#3 Tell her to show up in court to stake her claim. Arrest her for child trafficking and use her own words of ‘special relationship’ as evidence against her.

#4 Unless she can show a written contract or video of him making that promise, I suspect that won’t happen.

That, or evidence of an oral contract - good luck with that if the other side's too dead to testify. E-mails might do it, but that's a mighty thin reed.

#5 She's not getting very good legal advice.
Best to stay in hiding, lady.
Maybe also cosmetic surgery and a name change, before you depart for Uruguay or Patagonia.

#6 The Morgan & Morgan solution will likely not be a healthy course of action for Ghislaine.

#7 Where is she hiding? What country would shelter such a disgusting person, one so highly wanted?

#8 With the right makeup she could pass unnoticed in Shaghai.

#10 She's safe, maybe has tapes of DOJ, FBI, Congress, Senate and Bill Clinton raping 11 year olds. Never going to be brought to justice. Never.
