Epstein's Shadow: Ghislaine Maxwell

It's about time for Jizzlaine Maxwell to come out of the shadows & face her accusers. If she's innocent, she has nothing to worry about. I'm glad this documentary was made.

"Epstein's Shadow" (3 eps, 1 hr, Peacock) is a short doc series on the incredibly infamous Ghislaine (the "s" is silent) Maxwell. This documentary is really only useful for those who haven't been following this sordid tale in the press and online. There are first hand victim/witnesses on the record so she will be nailed. Her trial is currently set to start in Nov 2021 but most think that'll never happen. She'll get a plea deal to spend time in a Martha Stewart styled prison for a few years and nothing but nothing will be further revealed of the Rich and Powerful predators involved because contrary to "laws apply to everyone", the Rich and Powerful are simply immune from prosecution, sad but true.

Lots of new stuff and interviews with people I had never seen before.

A professionally executed and enjoyable watch.

How did this documentary pass the checks and balances? They're interviewing a bloke who went on a date with her in Oxford decades ago, a former classmate (also decades ago) who clearly didn't like her then or now, and a tabloid journalist who briefly worked for her dad (you guessed it, decades ago). An apparent "former friend" referenced newspapers more than personal experience. I have watched a lot of documentaries, even scrappy amateur YouTube content put together by teenagers and undergraduates. None of it is as basic and lacking in substance than what I just watched. I wouldn't be surprised if Maxwell sued the producers.

Where are the parents of these girls? And those over-eager interviewees. Please.

Bit embarrassing to appear concerned now.

Everyone looking for the right bus to throw her under...
