Annie Farmer, who has accused Maxwell of enabling her abuse, said during the hearing that the defendant “has never shown any remorse for her heinous crimes” and told the court “the danger Maxwell poses must be taken seriously.”

“She is a sexual predator who groomed and abused me and countless other children and young women,” Farmer told the court.

“Without Ghislaine, Jeffrey could not have done what he did,” an unidentified accuser added in a statement.

This accuser said she knew Maxwell for more than 10 years and still felt threatened, adding, “If she is out, I need to be protected.”
