Ghislaine Maxwell Got So Upset During Deposition She Knocked Court Reporter’s Computer Off a Table
Ghislaine Maxwell became so upset during her 2016 deposition in a defamation case that she knocked a court reporter’s computer off a conference room table in a “physical outburst,” according to newly unsealed documents released on Thursday.
Maxwell’s deposition , given back in 2016, was part of the 2015 defamation lawsuit that Virginia Roberts Giuffre, a woman who accused Jeffrey Epstein of sexually abusing and trafficking her, brought against Maxwell after the British socialite and Jeffrey Epstein associate said she was lying. Though the suit was settled in 2017, the 465-page deposition — unsealed on Thursday after months of back-and-forth in the courts — shows Maxwell’s repeated denials of wrongdoing and refusals to answer questions related to Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual acts with young girls, frequently employing the phrases “I don’t recall” and “I don’t recollect.”
The deposition is separate from the ongoing federal criminal case against Maxwell, who was arrested in July on charges that she conspired with Epstein to recruit and abuse minors. Maxwell pleaded not guilty and is awaiting trial, which is expected to begin on July 12, 2021.
“I am going to put on the record, Ms. Maxwell very inappropriately and very harshly pounded our law firm table in an inappropriate manner. I ask she take a deep breath, and calm down. I know this is a difficult position but physical assault or threats is not appropriate, so no pounding, no stomping, no, that’s not appropriate,” Sigrid McCawley, Giuffre’s lead attorney, said, according to the documents.
“Can we be clear, I didn’t threaten anybody,” Maxwell responded. Jeffrey Pagliuca, Maxwell’s attorney, then interjected to note that there were no dents or “chips” in the table.
Later in the hours-long deposition, Maxwell apologized for her outburst and blamed it on her frustration with what she said were Giuffre’s lies.
“I apologize sincerely for my banging at the table earlier, I hope you accept my apology. It’s borne out of years of feeling the pressure of this entire lie that [Giuffre] has perpetrated from our first time and whilst I recognize that was — I hope you forgive me sincerely because it was just the length of time that that terrible story has been told and retold and rehashed when I know it to be 100 percent false,” Maxwell said, according to the documents.
David Boies, an attorney representing Giuffre, told the Miami Herald on Thursday that the unsealed deposition was just one of two that Maxwell gave — and that it wasn’t “even the most important deposition.”
“What you see and what was released is only the beginning of revelations about the scope and scale of Epstein/Max trafficking ring. We are finally seeing how it operated, a bit of who was involved beyond what is publicly known,” Boies said. “This is only a small part of the evidence that was accumulated during our civil case.”

It ain't easy being a pimp.
No doubt .... it's hard out there on a pimp but she better stay away from bed sheets with what she knows ......
True, we can't have the 'president' having her taken out like he did Jeffrey Epstein.
She knows far too much.
Yeah, i know.
That's a real bitch that Bubba was involved so deeply in that debacle.
So is Bubba your pet name for the 'president'?
I await all your photos of Bill Clinton and Jeffrey Epstein
I see one photo of Bill with Epstein.
The second photo, what the fuck is that? Bill Clinton and who?
The rest are nonsense. I guess when all you have is nonsense, GO FOR IT!
yer fishing a dry creek... LOL
in your experience is there anything you can say as to the validity of those claims and whether there will be anything more about that?
Edwards: Nothing at all. The only thing that I can say about President Trump is that he is the only person who, in 2009 when I served a lot of subpoenas on a lot of people, or at least gave notice to some pretty connected people, that I want to talk to them, is the only person who picked up the phone and said, let’s just talk. I’ll give you as much time as you want. I’ll tell you what you need to know, and was very helpful, in the information that he gave, and gave no indication whatsoever that he was involved in anything untoward whatsoever, but had good information. That checked out and that helped us and we didn’t have to take a deposition of him in 2009.
Here's the 'president', Epstein and his pimp.
Houston? You have a problem ...
The topic of your seed sez he was on the plane.
Uh oh Chongo!!
I await your multitude of photos of Clinton and Epstein and his pimp together
Bubba flew on Epsteins Lolita express
Alec Baldwin did too
Turk 182
Again, I await your multitude of photos with Bill Clinton and Epstein and his pimp.
Actually, the log books show they were in flying to Africa and Clinton was on foundation business. Do you have proof otherwise?
Pictures of Clinton with Epstein together won't really prove they knew each other any more than pictures of Trump and Epstein together will prove. Famous people, and both Clinton and Trump do fit into that category, get asked to pose with all sorts of people while at events. The context behind any picture would also need to be known to show anything more than they were just in the same room or same event at the same time.
But it's very easy to google search pictures of Epstein with all sorts of people, including Trump, Clinton, Elon Musk, Bill Gates, Katie Couric, Courtney Love, Prince Andrew... it's really easy to find pictures.. But all that shows is that those people were in the same room at the same time and they posed for pictures.
