Ghislaine Maxwell, who trafficked young girls for Jeffrey Epstein, was seen in several explicit photos released Friday, December 19, as part of a huge Department of Justice document dump. Among thousands of photos she featured in were ones in which she was seen flashing her crotch, baring her breasts and shoving her face in a mystery man’s lap.

One photo shows Maxwell showing off her breasts, with an unidentified person shoving their foot into the frame. Another photo shows Maxwell with her head shoved into the lap of an unidentified man aboard what appears to be the Lolita Express, with Epstein laughing beside her.

What other photos did Ghislaine Maxwell feature in?

Maxwell was seen in several other photos with Epstein. New images show her celebrating birthdays, fooling around with Russian soldiers and enjoying the Ascot’s Royal Box in June 2000 with Prince Andrew. Andrew featured in various other photos, including one where he is seen sprawling out across the laps of women, with Maxwell smirking in the background.

Other celebrities like Michael Jackson, Mick Jagger and Bill Clinton also featured in the trove of photos, according to the New York Post. However, the DOJ has said that being photographed with Epstein does not equate to criminal guilt.

Maxwell is now serving a 20-year prison sentence after being convicted in December 2021. She was accused of helping Epstein recruit and sexually abuse minor girls.
