VIRGINA GIUFFRE DIES

One of Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse survivors, Virginia Giuffre, has committed suicide.

The 41-year-old’s body was found in the Australian town of Neergabb,y where she lived.

The news of her death was announced through a statement released to NBC News.

“It is with utterly broken hearts that we announce that Virginia passed away last night at her farm in Western Australia. She lost her life to suicide after being a lifelong victim of sexual abuse and sex trafficking.”

Giuffre grew up in Florida in the United States. After being abused by a family friend, she ended up living on the streets. Soon after that, Ghislaine Maxwell met her. Maxwell groomed her to be sexually abused by American billionaire Jeffrey Epstein.

Between 1999 and 2002, Giuffre was trafficked to Prince Andrew by the British royal family as well as a prominent French modelling agent, Jean-Luc Brunel.

Giuffre played a massive part in the trial, which ended up finding Epstein guilty and sentencing him to prison, where he committed suicide.

Maxwell is still on trial in the United States.

The family statement continued, saying, “Virginia was a fierce warrior in the fight against sexual abuse and trafficking. She was the light that lifted so many survivors. In the end, the toll of abuse is so heavy that it became unbearable for Virginia to handle its weight.”
