Ghislaine Maxwell’s defense strategy tried to lean heavily on wealth and influence to cast doubt on the prosecution’s case. Her lawyers attempted to present her as a scapegoat — someone prosecutors went after only because Jeffrey Epstein was dead and couldn’t stand trial. With substantial financial resources behind her, the defense worked to undermine survivor testimony, arguing the accusers were motivated by civil lawsuit payouts and media attention rather than truth. They suggested memories were unreliable, distorted by time, trauma, and the lure of compensation, pushing the narrative that these women were being manipulated by money and high-profile lawyers.
At the same time, the defense sought to manipulate perception by portraying Maxwell as fragile, targeted, and unfairly villainized. They tried to distance her from Epstein’s abuse despite years of association, framing her as an innocent socialite ensnared in his orbit rather than an active accomplice. They also attempted to weaponize procedural moves — delays, motions, sharp attacks on credibility — to chip away at the prosecution’s case. But the jury ultimately saw through these tactics, recognizing that money and manipulation were not mere elements of the defense — they had been central components of Maxwell’s crimes in the first place.
