Ghislaine Maxwell's brother is convinced that she will not be ratting anyone out or trading any names in exchange for a lighter prison sentence. The 60-year-old, who was labeled "dangerous" by the prosecution, <a href="https://vt.co/news/ghislaine-maxwell-found-guilty-of-trafficking-underage-girls-to-be-sexually-abused-by-jeffrey-epstein" target="_blank" rel="noopener">faces the rest of her life in jail for helping to entice vulnerable teenagers</a> to Epstein's various properties for him to sexually abuse between 1994 and 2004. Maxwell was found guilty of five federal charges, including sex trafficking of a minor, transporting a minor with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, and three related counts of conspiracy. <img class=" wp-image-1263137055" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/11/2H7J2E1-scaled.jpg" alt="" width="687" height="515" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: REUTERS / Alamy]] She was acquitted on the charge of enticing a minor to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, per <a href="https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-us-canada-59824150" target="_blank" rel="noopener">BBC News</a>. And despite the fact that she faces a very long prison sentence, it seems as though her brother Ian says she's not looking to mention any names of any alleged co-conspirators, per <a href="https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/ghislaine-maxwell-will-never-name-names-says-her-brother-ian-wfd86kkpj" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Times</a>. "Prosecution confirmed no plea bargain offers were made or received" before the trial, her brother Ian said. "I expect that position to be maintained." Maxwell's refusal to cooperate with prosecutors could come as a relief to alleged co-conspirators, including four women employed by Maxwell and partner in crime Jeffery Epstein, and to others linked to the tawdry couple, such as Prince Andrew, Bill Clinton, Bill Gates, and Donald Trump, the report states. <img class=" wp-image-1263138955" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/12/E3BKX8-684x1024.jpg" alt="" width="463" height="693" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: WENN Rights Ltd / Alamy]] Maxwell was "understandably subdued" by her conviction but "strong in spirit," her brother alleged. Ghislaine "is not now, nor has ever been, a suicide risk," her brother said. "She knows there are many people, including her family of course, who love and support her and who believe in her innocence." Ian told <a href="https://www.thetimes.co.uk/article/ghislaine-maxwell-will-never-name-names-says-her-brother-ian-wfd86kkpj" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Times</a>: "She will be appealing her conviction. She is a fighter and a survivor." It comes as Maxwell's family and attorney said that <a href="https://vt.co/news/ghislaine-maxwells-family-launch-appeal-after-guilty-sex-trafficking-verdict" target="_blank" rel="noopener">they plan to appeal her conviction, saying they believe she is innocent</a>. <img class=" wp-image-1263137647" src="https://img.vt.co/2021/12/2H4AC4N-1024x768.jpg" alt="" width="760" height="570" />[[imagecaption|| Credit: REUTERS/Jane Rosenberg/Alamy]] In a statement, Maxwell's brother Kevin said: "We believe firmly in our sister’s innocence – we are very disappointed with the verdict. We have already started the appeal tonight and we believe that she will ultimately be vindicated." Lisa Bloom, who represents a number of Ghislaine Maxwell’s and Jeffrey Epstein’s accusers, said she does not see "any chance" of Maxwell's legal team successfully appealing against the verdict. Maxwell showed no emotion when the verdicts were read. Judge Alison Nathan did not set a sentencing date after the verdict. <h6>Featured image credit: WENN Rights Ltd / Alamy</h6>
