In 2016, Ghislaine Maxwell falsely stated, under oath, that she was not aware that Jeffrey Epstein recruited underage girls for sex (you know, the ones she was actually recruiting on his behalf). She was charged with two counts of perjury for this.
Remind me why we give a shit what she says now?

Wonder why the public is disproportionately concerned with youth crime? Maybe partly culture shock, but also because news media promote far more youth crime stories.
