Virginia Giuffre wanted Epstein documents made public, siblings say

Accuser who died in April wanted justice for victims and urged Trump not to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell, family says

The siblings of Virginia Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein’s most prominent accusers who died earlier this year, said their sister had wanted the so-called Epstein files to be released, and urged Donald Trump not to pardon his longtime associate, Ghislaine Maxwell.

In an interview with NBC News on Thursday, Giuffre’s family said she would have wanted the documents – a trove of materials related to the investigation into the years of abuse into the late sex offender – made public.

“She had a little bit of hope in her because it was said that the files were going to be released,” Amanda Roberts, Giuffre’s sister-in-law, told the network in an interview, saying Giuffre would have wanted “transparency and justice” for his victims.

“She was fighting for that to happen right up until the very end,” Roberts added. “She wanted the public to know the crimes that they had committed.”
