[Non-public whispering]— Inner City Press (@innercitypress) November 29, 2021Read the rest by clicking on any of the above tweets.Needless to say, it appears this trial will be about claims against Epstein and Maxwell vs. Maxwell’s attorneys casting doubt while trying to frame Ghislaine as some sort of a victim herself. Stay tuned…* * *Update (1426ET): The jury in the sex trafficking trial of Ghislaine Maxwell has been seated for the British socialite’s trial, where six men and six women will decide if she trafficked underage girls for sexual abuse by Jeffrey Epstein and pals.According to Bloomberg, the jury ranges in age from 27 to 70 – and most of them say they don’t follow the news closely. Several jurors who said they had closely followed the Epstein saga were excused from serving.Here’s what we know about the 12 jurors via Bloomberg (emphasis ours):A woman, 61, working as a trader’s assistant for an unidentified bank after previously working at ING. She lives in the Bronx with her son, daughter-in-law and grandchildren and said she watches a lot of “police shows” like “Law & Order.”A woman, 28, living in the Bronx and doing clerical work for the City of New York while she finishes her master’s degree in public administration. She said she’d heard of Epstein before but not Maxwell.A woman, 60, with a master’s in urban affairs who prepares contracts for the government. The Manhattan resident said she doesn’t read newspapers but follows online news feeds.A man, 44, who studied information and knowledge strategy at Columbia University and is now vice president of quality at a life-sciences company. He lives with his husband in Westchester County, where they enjoy playing board games.A woman, 51, who has lived in Manhattan her entire life. An administrative manager at a “metals industry” non-profit, she works out and visits her mother everyday. She said she’d heard of Epstein and his suicide as well as Maxwell’s arrest.A woman, 70, who retired in 2017 after working in human resources at a non-profit. She frequents cooking websites and also enjoys “Jeopardy,” chess, knitting and bicycle riding.A woman, 53, who lives in the Bronx and works as a home health aide. An immigrant who came to the U.S. with a middle-school education, she had heard of Epstein but didn’t remember hearing about Maxwell. She likes watching “The Bold and the Beautiful” and cartoons with her grandchildren.A man, 35, who graduated from college in 2008 with a finance degree and has been living in Manhattan for the past 10 years. He works as an executive assistant at a private company within the financial industry.A man, 33, who works for a “government entity” and lives in the Bronx with his wife. He says he mostly watches sports and thinks he was watching football when he flipped the channel and saw the news about Epstein’s suicide.A man, 34, who lives in Manhattan and previously worked in advertising but is not currently employed. He said he knew of both Epstein and Maxwell but didn’t follow the case “super well.”A man, 41, living in Manhattan and working as a musician. He said he’d heard of Epstein being a “billionaire who solicited prostitutes or underage girls” and was aware of Maxwell being his “girlfriend or romantic partner.”A man, 64, who is a lifelong Manhattan resident and has worked for the past 24 years as a paraprofessional for a “public entity.” He lives alone, doesn’t read the news and is not on social media, preferring to spend his free time watching old movies and the Mets.Six alternates have also been chosen – including a 36-year-old real estate broker who studied civil engineering in the Dominican Republic, and a 54-year-old woman who lives in Westchester and works in maintenance “in a building in the city.”* * *Is there another giant Epstein bomb about to drop?With the way social media blew up this weekend about the Ghislaine Maxwell trial coverage, one might think so. Over the last few days, messages on Facebook and Twitter have expressed disgust and skepticism about the fact that the Maxwell trial will not be livestreamed, similar to the way the Kyle Rittenhouse trial was.There have been Tweets abound suggesting that press may be banned from the courtroom and that Judge Alison Nathan had issued some type of “gag order” preventing the press from being at the trial..Tweets like these were abound, making their way across social media all weekend:BREAKING: “Judge In Ghislaine Maxwell Trial Issues Media-Wide Gag Order: All Press & Spectators Barred From Courtroom.”
We know who they are protecting and we can’t allow it!— Tim Kennedy (@TimKennedyMMA) November 28, 2021But these assertions look as though they may not be entirely true.Federal trials prohibit all cameras, Newsweek reported this morning. “Cameras were allowed in Rittenhouse’s as it was a state trial, held in a Wisconsin state court,” their article said, debunking the notion that since one trial was livestreamed, the other one should be.“[E]xcept as otherwise provided by a statute or these rules, the court must not permit the taking of photographs in the courtroom during judicial proceedings or the broadcasting of judicial proceedings from the courtroom,” the report says, citing Federal law.
Newsweek instead reported this morning that that no gag order had been issued and that the press are being “guaranteed access” to the courtroom:Contrary to claims made on social media, a judge has not issued a gag order, and per federal rules, only individuals inside the courthouse will be able to watch the trial. Among those being guaranteed access to the trial are members of the press, alleged victims, and members of Maxwell’s family.A November 24 order from Judge Alison Nathan stated:“First, consistent with the District’s COVID-19 distancing requirements, a number of pool reporters and members of the public will be permitted in the courtroom proper as managed by the District’s Executive Office. Second, press will also be able to access the trial in dedicated overflow courtrooms for the press.”Either way, we are expecting fireworks and will follow developments as they occur… Republished from ZeroHedge.com with permissionThe post The First Day of Ghislaine Maxwell’s Trial: Everything You Need to Know appeared first on We Are Change.Related posts:
