They sent in a helicopter and 20 armed agents, as though she were a menace to society. It was unbelievable, totally shocking. That was the moment my sister became a scapegoat for the dreadful crimes perpetrated by Jeffrey Epstein.

My sister left her home and went to New Hampshire to escape the media, not the police. After Epstein died, the press hounded her 24/7, so she fled to get away from them.

My sister is the fall guy. Somebody had to pay the price for what Epstein did and so the government and the media chose her. I genuinely believe that if Epstein were alive he would be incarcerated and she would be free.

Her trial wasn’t fair and her conviction isn’t safe. Ghislaine has done nothing wrong and the length of her conviction is outrageous. You have a situation where somebody like P Diddy stands in front of the same federal court on the same charge and receives four-and-a-half years for extreme physical battery and my sister receives 20 years.

I know who the monster is here and it’s not my sister, it’s Virginia Giuffre and her falsehoods that have had devastating ramifications for Ghislaine. I didn’t shed a tear when she died.
