Intimate photos of Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein supposedly reveal that the pair were "partners in crime".
Maxwell is charged with six counts alleging that she recruited, groomed, and abused four underage girls between 1994 and 2004. She has pleaded not guilty to all charges and faces 80 years in prison if found guilty on all counts.
She is accused of helping financier Epstein abuse underage girls between 1994 and 2004. She denies all charges against her.
On Tuesday, December 7, the jury at the 59-year-old socialite's Manhattan trial in federal court were shown a series of 19 photographs that had been obtained from an FBI raid of Epstein's Manhattan property in July 2019 after he was arrested, The Telegraph reports.
The images were obtained from hard drives and CDs, with an FBI agent telling the court on Tuesday that 20,000 photographs in total were being used as part of their investigation.
Using 19 of these images in court, the aim of the prosecutors was to depict an image of two people who were "partners in crime".
In one of the images, Maxwell is seen massaging her then-boyfriend Jeffrey Epstein's foot on a private jet, The Telegraph reports.
Other photos showed Epstein with his arm around Maxwell or the latter kissing the disgraced billionaire on the cheek.
Various pictures in the collection show Maxwell enjoying lavish vacations, sunbathing in a bikini on a yacht, and enjoying Bloody Marys.
A further two photos, which include an image of Prince Andrew accuser Virginia Roberts Giuffre, were filed under seal to "protect her privacy", the jury was told.
This comes after the court was shown a framed nude photo of Maxwell in the bathroom of his Palm Beach mansion last week.
Maxwell was arrested in July 2020 at her New Hampshire home, and has since denied any involvement in the incidents of sex trafficking that her now-deceased ex-partner, Epstein, was accused of.
Epstein committed suicide by hanging in his jail cell in August 2019 as he awaited, without the chance of bail, his trial on sex trafficking charges.
Prior to her trial, which began on November 29, Maxwell had repeatedly been denied bail due to concerns that she might flee.
