#Ghislaine Maxwell ‘groomed’ young assistant for Jeffrey Epstein, suit claims

Ghislaine Maxwell has been accused in a new lawsuit of hiring and grooming a young executive assistant whom Jeffrey Epstein then repeatedly raped.

The civil suit, filed in New York on June 17, alleges that “Epstein Associate 1” — whom sources identified to the Daily Mail as Maxwell — interviewed the woman in September 2003 for the position as Epstein’s assistant, telling her he was “a very powerful man.”

The court documents were filed just weeks before Maxwell was arrested in New Hampshire on charges she helped the infamous late pedophile exploit and abuse underage girls.
