At her sentencing, multiple survivors confronted Maxwell directly in court and described lifetimes of trauma inflicted by Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein. Among them, Annie Farmer broke into tears as she recounted how Maxwell lulled her — at age 16 — into a false sense of safety, only to betray that trust with a nude “massage” meant for sexual exploitation. She spoke of years of anxiety, self-doubt, shame, and “survivor guilt,” saying that the abuse destroyed her ability to trust her own instincts or believe in anything stable. Others, like Sarah Ransome, testified about repeated rapes in Epstein’s homes and on his private island — describing decades of nightmares, suicide attempts, alcoholism relapses, and a life forever marred by mental anguish. One woman, speaking on behalf of Virginia Roberts Giuffre, declared bluntly: “You opened the door to hell.”


The statements carried a brutal weight — not just as testimony of past horror, but as living, ongoing pain. They underscored that what Maxwell facilitated was not a series of isolated crimes, but a long-term destruction of lives, families, and futures — a slow poison. For the survivors, the sentencing was not simply about justice served, but about being seen, heard, and validated: survivors demanded that Maxwell’s punishment reflect the magnitude of their suffering. In doing so, they turned the courtroom into a reckoning — forcing the powerful, once protected by privilege and silence, to finally answer for a lifetime of betrayal, abuse, and damage that will never fully heal.

Speaker 1 (00:00):
What's up, everyone, and welcome back to the Epstein Chronicles.
So we are on the eve of Glaine Maxwell being sentenced,
and I have to tell you, I really, really hope
this lady gets the whole ass book thrown at her.
I think I've been pretty clear over the past three
years about where I stand when it comes to Maxwell

(00:20):
and her role within this criminal operation, and I could
not disagree more with the people who act like Maxwell
is being used as some kind of fallwoman here. That
is not the case. She is being made to own
her piece of this. That's all pretty simple. Now. I
know that there's people out there with their political wants

(00:43):
and their tribalistic needs, and they have this desire to
manipulate what happened to these ladies and these girls into
some sort of cudgel to use against their political opponents. Well,
that shit doesn't fly here on this podcast, and I'll
leave that to all of the Twitter knuckleheads to continue

(01:04):
on with the bs. But the reality of the situation, folks,
if you're living in reality, is Maxwell is simply being
punished for her role within this organization, and not just
her role, but her leadership role. She wasn't just somebody
that was along for the ride, somebody that was you know,

(01:25):
tacking on the benefits and living her life, and no,
she was engaging in this abuse, according to numerous girls.
So are we just supposed to act like that didn't happen,
Act like, you know, Maxwell is just being used as
the fall woman here, because that's what it seems like
some people are trying to assert, and that could not be,

(01:46):
you know, further from the truth. Glenn Maxwell has to
own her piece in this, just like we talk about
El Chopo his captains, or John Gotti's captains or insert
criminal enterprise here. Everybody body has to own their part, folks,
and Glane Maxwell is about to own hers tomorrow. Today's

(02:07):
article is from the AP News and the headline is
seven accusers will help Larry Newmeister out Here, seven survivors
write to glean Maxwell's sentencing judge. Obviously, this article was
authored by Larry Newmeister. Seven women who say Glagne Maxwell
helped Jeffrey Epstein steal the innocence of their youth and

(02:30):
poison the promise of their future are asking a judge
to consider their pain as she decides what prison sentence
she will dispense Tuesday to the incarcerated British woman. Look,
I really really hope that Judge Nathan takes to heart
what the survivors have to say here, because let's be clear,

(02:50):
they're the ones that were most affected by this. Now,
those of us watching from the sidelines, or those of
us in society that are disgusted by it, we have
every right to be disgusted, there's no doubt. But nobody
deserves justice more than these survivors. Their statements were put
in the public case file late Friday by Manhattan prosecutors

(03:14):
who have asked US District Judge Alice and j Nathan
to sentence Maxwell to thirty to fifty five years in
prison for monstrous crimes resulting in a December sex trafficking
conviction for a socialite, bipedal serpent, fellow, child abuser, general
all around scuzbag, who has been jailed since her July
twenty twenty arrest, and poor Glaine. She's been in jail

(03:38):
since July twenty twenty. How dare anybody put her in jail?
There's no evidence she's such a good person. She has
a submersible license and a helicopter's license and nobody cares.
Enjoy jail, enjoy prison. You're never leaving either of them.
Four women testified at Maxwell's month long trial, where they

(04:02):
describe sexual attacks on teenage girls from nineteen ninety four
to two thousand and four by Epstein and Maxwell at
Epstein's mansions and estates in Manhattan, New Mexico, Florida, and
the Virgin Islands. And while we're here on the doorstep,
I might as well kick the door in real quick. Right,
How come Zoro Ranch has still never been raided? Does

(04:25):
that not rankle anybody else out there? I mean, you
got this whole ass ranch out here with who knows
what kind of secrets it's hiding, and not one single
member of law enforcement or the FBI or anyone kicked
in the door investigation. Take a look, Let's collect some evidence.
What sort of videos are here? Nothing? Not a zilch squangill.

(04:52):
In a statement, Annie Farmer, who testified at trial and
spoke at Epstein's bail hearing before he killed himself allegedly
in August of twenty nineteen as he awaited a sex
trafficking trial, said Maxwell's lack of remorse and her repeated
lies about survivors forced a long fight for justice that
has felt like a black hole sucking in our precious time,

(05:15):
energy and well being. And I can tell you for
sure that people like Annie Farmer and Maria Farmer and
Virginia and the rest of the survivors, they have better
things to do than keep, you know, dragging this up
time and time again and having to relive this trauma.
This should have all been shelved a very long time ago,

(05:35):
but these ladies have to continuously relive this bullshit. So finally,
hopefully they can really slam and nail in the coffin here.
And at the very least, the three major players of
Epstein's operation are off the table, Maxwell Epstein and Jean
Loup Brunel. While it's not a complete and total victory,

(05:57):
it's certainly pushing the line, isn't it. When we first
started talking about this, I remember how many people would
send me emails and how many people would post on
places like Twitter that there never be any justice whatsoever here. Well,
let me tell you what, Jean Luke Bernell being dead,
that's kind of a victory if you ask me. Of course,
I wish his survivors would have had the chance to

(06:19):
stare at him from across the courtroom and then see
him get convicted. Of course that's what we all want, right,
But the fact is this motherfucker is dead and he
ain't hurting nobody else ever again. And the same goes
for Jeffrey Epstein. Now Maxwell, Oh, she's the scapegoat. Well no,
she's the one standing when you know there's no chairs left,

(06:39):
that's all that is. And she's the one who is
the last boss standing, right, So she's the one that's
getting the jail sentence. But when people sit around and
talk like there has been no justice here whatsoever, or
none of the players, at the very least the ones
who set it up logistically have been punished, that's just false.

(07:00):
Is it the sort of scorched Darth victory that's needed here?
Hell no, there needs to be Rico, And we know
that that's not going to happen because it would involve
all of their buddies and we can't have that, right,
all of the peripheral players on the stage being named.
We just can't have that in the media, can we.
So there was no Rico. But at the same time,

(07:20):
I'm not gonna sit here and act like we haven't
seen anybody be brought to justice. Epstein, Maxwell, Brunel, Prince
Andrew Ain't doing shit ever again. Glenn Dubin screwed now again. Look,
don't get it twisted. Those are not complete victories, but
certainly steps in the right direction compared to where we

(07:41):
were three years ago. Defense lawyer Bobby Sternham included the
victim statements in a submission to the judge Friday after
the defense asked for a sentence of no more than
five years, but she heavily redacted portions and asking the
judge to disregard some entirely because they were not directly
a part of the case that resulted in Maxwell's conviction.

(08:04):
So if you weren't abuse, if you weren't part of
the case, it doesn't matter if you were abused. According
to Bobby Sternham, you shouldn't have any say so because
you weren't part of this case. Absolutely ludicrous. What it
does is it establishes a pattern of Maxwell's behavior, so
the judge can see that it's actually more than just
what was put in front of her, and we all

(08:26):
know that there were many many more girls. Prosecutors, though
said no redactions were required or necessary because any privacy
interest belonged to survivors and none asked for their statements
to be sealed. They added that no due process interest
is protected by withholding victim impact statements from the public.
Three victims may speak at sentencing, so not only do

(08:49):
they have the letters that are going to be presented,
but there's also supposed to be some of the survivors
there to speak at the actual hearing. And I don't
know how Maxwell's team thinks they're gonna get off with
five years here. It's just crazy to me, absolutely crazy. Talk.

(09:11):
Included were nine graphic pictures of Sarah Ransom, taken in
a hospital bed after two suicide attempts. She blames on
the trauma of over a half year spent as a
sex toy for Epstein and Maxwell and others that left
her so distressed that she once considered jumping from a
cliff and the shark infested waters off Epstein's sprawling Virgin

(09:32):
Island's estate. Now imagine how mentally rocked you have to
be to think about jumping into the water with the sharks.
I mean, what a terrifying proposal. Either stay there with
the Land Bay sharks or hop into the water and
take your chances with the actual sharks. Ransom, who wrote

(09:54):
a book Silence No More and traveled from her England
home to observe Maxwell's trial, said she was stopped from
taking the plunge by Maxwell and company moments before jumping,
but that at the time that extremely risky escape seemed
more appealing than being raped one more time. Now, I
can't even imagine what that feels like. I've never been

(10:15):
in a position where somebody has lorded or held their
power over me, or forced me to do something against
my will via a threat or you know, talking about
hurting my family or anything like that. I've never even
come close to being in a position like that, never
mind being on an island. And this was the mo

(10:38):
for Epstein and Maxwell. This is the kind of shit
that they did. They would intimidate these girls, threaten them,
tell them that they'd hurt their families, all kinds of
wild shit. One woman, Kate, a former British model who
testified at trial, spoke of the silent screams inside the
minds of girls who were not yet adults when Maxwell

(10:58):
and Epstein flashed wealth and ties to famous and powerful
people before subjecting them to sex abuse and then fear
so they would never disobey their their requests. I mean, wow.
I know we've talked about this for years now, but
every time we read it or hear it from the
mouths of the survivors, it just slams home. The fact

(11:20):
of how devious and draconian this whole entire operation was
and how it was operating out in the open in
the middle of New York is such a black eye
to the SDN Y that there's not even enough words
to talk about it. This is supposed to be the
premier investigators, right, We're gonna get everybody. Oh yeah. Meanwhile,

(11:46):
Jeffrey Epstein, Glenn Maxwell and the rest of these sick
bastards were engaging in their behavior not too far away
from where you dudes are based, calling Maxwell dangerous and devious.
Maria Farmer said her intersection with the pair and sexual
assault by Epstein during a trip to Ohio cost her

(12:06):
a promising career as an artist, and leaves are still
feeling unsafe outside firm in the belief that Maxwell will
harm her if she ever has her way. She is
the sister of Annie Farmer, and I could tell you
for sure that the whole entire situation that Maria went
through had left her shook. Man. Nobody should have to

(12:26):
live like that. I've had candid conversations with Maria about,
you know, just the whole aftermath of this, and I
can't tell you how disgusting the operation was, and the intimidation,
and the way that Epstein and Maxwell were just so
cavalier about what they were doing, and how brazen it was.

(12:52):
Another Virginia Roberts said, Maxwell opened the door to hell,
as she joked that she was like a new mother
to dust girls and young women. She fed to her
financier pedophile boyfriend and later boss Glaine like a wolf
in sheep's clothing. You betrayed us, and you let us
all through it, she added. You could have put an

(13:14):
end to the rapes, the molestations, the sickening manipulations that
you arranged, witnessed, and even took part in. You could
have called the authorities and reported that you were part
of something awful. Glaine, you deserve to spend the rest
of your life in a jail cell. You deserve to
be trapped in a cage forever, just like you trapped
your victims Wow, Wow, wow. I mean pretty powerful stuff.

(13:37):
And if you're the judge and you're hearing these accounts
from these girls and what they have to say, I
don't know how you can't be moved, how you're not swayed.
And then you look over and you see the vapid,
disgusting person that Glaine Maxwell is, and well, to me anyway,
it certainly seems like Virginia's onto something here, and that

(13:59):
is Glain Maxwell locked in a cage for the rest
of her life. If you'd like to contact me, you
