The family of Virginia Giuffre, a key figure in the Jeffrey Epstein scandal, is speaking out against Ghislaine Maxwell’s recent request for clemency. Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking, has sought immunity in exchange for providing testimony to the House Oversight Committee. This move has sparked controversy, especially among survivors and their families.

Giuffre, who tragically passed away by suicide in April, had previously condemned Maxwell, calling her “vicious” and “worse than Epstein.” In response to Maxwell’s plea for leniency, Giuffre’s brother Sky Roberts and his wife, Amanda Roberts, appeared on CBS Mornings to express their opposition. They firmly stated that survivors are against any form of pardon or immunity for Maxwell.
The recent developments come after Maxwell’s attorney sent a letter requesting immunity in exchange for her testimony before Congress. Maxwell has also been subpoenaed to testify, but she has indicated that she will assert her Fifth Amendment rights unless granted immunity from prosecution. Despite these legal maneuvers, President Donald Trump has not made any statements regarding granting Maxwell clemency.
During the CBS interview, Sky and Amanda Roberts reiterated their stance against any leniency for Maxwell and expressed their willingness to testify on Giuffre’s behalf. They raised concerns about the recent transfer of Maxwell to a minimum-security prison in Texas, questioning whether there were any undisclosed dealings behind the scenes. The Roberts family urged the Trump administration not to silence the voices of survivors once again.
In light of these events, the conversation around justice for survivors of Epstein’s crimes has been reignited. Maxwell’s attempt to secure immunity has brought renewed attention to the case and the need for accountability. The Roberts family’s public stand against Maxwell’s plea underscores the importance of standing up for the rights of survivors and seeking justice for those impacted by Epstein’s actions.
As the legal proceedings unfold, it remains to be seen how the Trump administration and Congress will respond to Maxwell’s request for immunity. The voices of survivors and their families, like the Roberts, continue to be crucial in ensuring that justice is served and that those responsible for the heinous crimes committed by Epstein and Maxwell are held accountable.
The ongoing saga surrounding Ghislaine Maxwell and the legacy of Jeffrey Epstein serves as a stark reminder of the importance of seeking justice for survivors of sexual exploitation and abuse. The courage and resilience of individuals like Virginia Giuffre and her family in speaking out against injustice are a testament to the ongoing fight for accountability and closure in the face of such traumatic events.
