Maxwell’s Silver Hammer: Part I
The saga of Jeffrey Epstein is ongoing and ever-present in the news. And there are powerful lessons to be learned. But the talking heads are mostly just spinning their wheels. So, if you’re seeking some straight talk and inside scoop about all of it, you’ve come to the right place.
This is a 2-part episode, as there is much ground to cover.
The title, of course, is an homage to the great Beatles song. But in truth, Ms. Maxwell does indeed wield a hammer. The Trump folks want to use it to do damage control and she’s looking to dig a tunnel out of the federal bureau of prisons.
It remains to be seen whether Ghislaine Maxwell will be the extinguisher or the accelerant to this dumpster fire of a case.
IN THIS EPISODE:
- Preamble: Ghislaine is talkin’ to the feds, but to what end?
- Thoughts on whether Epstein took his own life, through the lens of the suicide and mental health epidemic in jails and prisons;
- The non-prosecution plea agreement that Ghislaine Maxwell says requires dismissal of all her charges;
- What this really shows is the importance of well drafted plea agreements;
- Statistical analysis of the “trial penalty”;
- Fighting the dreaded appeal waiver in plea agreements;
- Pleading “straight up” when the government is offering you a terrible plea agreement.
Stay tuned for PART II!
