Ghislaine Maxwell trial: How the Jeffrey Epstein investigation unfolded

He was one of the world’s most notorious paedophiles.

Jeffrey Epstein is dead, but in a few days his one-time lover and friend, Ghislaine Maxwell, is due to go on trial in New York.

She’s accused of grooming and trafficking young women for Epstein to abuse, and denies all the charges against her.

But the case would most likely never have come to court at all – were it not for the work of Julie Brown, a journalist in Florida whose groundbreaking investigation led to Epstein’s arrest in 2019.
