PRAYING FOR THE VICTIMS OF CHILD SEX ABUSE BY GHISLAINE MAXWELL AND JEFFREY EPSTEIN


Epstein Victim, Virginia Giuffre
was 17 when she claims Prince Andrew had sex with her.
Her complaint alleges that Epstein passed her around to
his friends, such as the Prince.
She committed suicide in 2025.

 


I AM PRAYING FOR THE HUNDREDS OF VICTIMS OF PEDOPHILES JEFFREY EPSTEIN AND GHISLAINE MAXWELL, PROMPTED BY NEWS ARTICLES (LINKS TO WHICH ARE LISTED BELOW THIS POST.)

IN THE NEWS THIS WEEK:

(If you are already up-to-speed on all the news, feel free to skip to the PRAYERS section below!)

Trump reneges on his promise to release all the Epstein material.
After years of promising to release all the Epstein materials (of which there is quite a lot), Trump has reneged on it and, as if waving it aside and saying "there's nothing to see here, folks," he sent his former personal attorney to see pedophile rapist/trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell to speak to her in a highly inappropriate, solitary interview at which there were no witnesses and no transcripts. Immediately thereafter, pedophile rapist/trafficker Maxwell was moved to a cushy, luxurious, minimum security "prison" that doesn't even have a gate to prevent the inmates from leaving (which was not a legal move, by the way. This type of prisoner is not allowed in this type of facility.)

Victims still suffer.
Meanwhile, there are hundreds of victims of pedophile rapists/traffickers Maxwell and Epstein who are suffering in the extreme, except for some who have died, at least two of whom took their own lives, after decades of anguish.

Damage is permanent.
What many do not realize is that victims of this kind of crime never recover from it. They suffer the rest of their lives and the only relief is learning how to cope with it. There is no "cure." It will never go away because it changes a girl forever when this happens. Every one of those victims, to one degree or another, has been permanently altered.

BACK STORY:

Girls as young as 12 were preyed upon by Epstein and Maxwell.
According to victims and witnesses, Girls as young as 12 were targeted, hunted, groomed and raped by Ghislaine Maxwell and/or Jeffrey Epstein. HUNDREDS of underage girls were sought after by Ghislaine Maxwell, who "befriended" them, groomed them, then betrayed them, turning them over to a vile pedophile and, in some cases, joining in the sexual abuse.  One victim described how it was Maxwell who first took the girl's clothes off!   

Girls lured by promises of career advancement.
Initially, the girls were led to believe that they have made a friend of a very posh, upper class woman of style and grace who believed in them and their career aspirations, goals and dreams. In some cases, they were promised jobs as massage therapists for Epstein, and these promises included unheard-of benefits, such as free education and training, as well as the freedom to keep their own schedule, to spend time working at other jobs (such as dancing and modeling gigs) and also to be included in their new friends' jet-setting lifestyle, complete with world travel on Epstein's plane that was, horrifically enough, called "The Lolita Express." Maxwell and Epstein introduced them to a massively impressive coterie of famous wealthy people, some with quite a lot of prestige. Prince Andrew and former president Bill Clinton were among the people who had traveled on that plane, and it is reported that many "high profile" people, including Trump, were in Epstein's orbit.

Lured to Epstein's sex plane "The Lolita Express."
Many of the assaults took place when the victims were, essentially, trapped on that plane, which was decorated with velvet armchairs and sofas, mahogany or teak desks, a shower, galley kitchen and dining area. It featured a queen-sized bed in the back, which victims said was installed so that the girls he had lured into the plane could be made to have sex with Epstein's guests. All of the luxury seating could be laid out to become beds. Photographs of the interior that were were presented at Epstein's trial confirmed this description.

Epstein dies under highly suspicious conditions.
Epstein died in 2019, under highly suspect conditions while awaiting trial, in prison and, although it was claimed that he killed himself, many people who knew him say that this simply isn't possible. In addition, there are several circumstances that are suspicious: More than three minutes of video tape during the time of Epstein's death is missing, the rest of it having been spliced together. 

Prison rules violated, video missing time, and Guards cruise the internet.
Prison rules were violated in  a number of ways.  For instance, people at risk of suicide were required to have a cell mate. His cell mate had been moved out. Guards were not watching over Epstein's cell. Instead, it was reported that some were sleeping and others were browsing the internet for furniture and motorcycle sales. The required 30-minute checks that were supposed to have been done were NOT. INSTEAD, guards were found to have been wandering around the common areas when Epstein died. Later, guards were charged with falsifying records.

Ghislaine Maxwell was convicted in 2021 of 5 sex trafficking counts and given a 20 year prison sentence.



AMERICANS UNITED IN REVULSION
TOWARD THIS TYPE OF ABUSE

Americans of both parties mutually detest this type of crime.
Ordinary Americans on both the right and left side of politics are united in their loathing toward this type of crime, especially as it pertains to young people who are not equipped to deal with it and whose lives are forever damaged as a result of being victimized in this way. 

Trump often blamed the Democrats.
For many years, Trump and his followers have claimed that it was the Democrats who were responsible for the crimes and for the subsequent coverup, but Democrats have made it crystal clear that they ALSO wish for all the material to be released, regardless of who is mentioned or pictured. Most of the MAGA devotees also seem to be sincerely committed to getting to the bottom of this story and I have heard them say that to turn their backs on this would be a travesty to which they do not want to be a part. After so many years of saying they want the material to be released, there does not seem to be a legitimate reason to keep it hidden.

Trump Administration vacillates.
The only people who seem to want it hidden are those who were involved with Epstein and Maxwell and those whose slavish devotion to Trump is so intense that they do not truly care about these crimes and have only complained about them because they thought that it was a Democrat coverup. As soon as Trump sought to hide the material, they changed their minds about their importance. I have no respect for people who have no essential devotion to any values and I believe we should ignore their specious arguments in favor of keeping the stuff hidden, since they are only trying to protect and defer to Donald Trump.

Victims suspect a coverup.
Victims of Maxwell and Epstein are upset about Maxwell's release into a minimum security "country club" style prison and are making claims of a cover-up, an idea that has found purchase in the minds of many folks who, expecting Trump to release the Epstein materials, as promised, are infuriated that he now refuses to do so.


PRAYERS FOR VICTIMS OF MAXWELL AND EPSTEIN

Incentive for prayer:
The crimes for which Maxwell is convicted and further accused cry to heaven for justice. Young women and girls who were lured into a situation for which they were not in any way prepared have been permanently scarred - harmed for life. These are the type of crimes against the innocent which change the nature of a person's sense of self. No matter how many people are involved in this crimes or witnessed them, and regardless of who they are, our attention and compassion should be focused on the victims, not the abusers.

✞
INTRODUCTORY PRAYER:
****************
God of endless love,
ever caring, ever strong,
always present, always just:
You gave your only Son

Gentle Jesus, shepherd of peace,

by those who betrayed the trust placed in them.

Soothe their restless hearts with hope,
steady their shaken spirits with faith.
Grant them justice for their cause,
enlightened by your truth.
Holy Spirit, comforter of hearts,
heal your people’s wounds
and transform brokenness into wholeness.
Grant us the courage and wisdom,
humility and grace, to act with justice.
Breathe wisdom into our prayers and labors.
Grant that all harmed by abuse may find peace in justice.
We ask this through Christ, our Lord. Amen.

SUBSTACK - The Actual Conspiracy Theory Surrounding Trump and Epstein (NOTE: This article contains links and also descriptions of Katie Johnson's accusations against Donald Trump, that he raped her AT THE HOME OF JEFFREY EPSTEIN when she was a 13 year-old virgin, complete with horrible dialog that sounds like the way Donald Trump speaks. Although her story came out many years ago, it was BEFORE Epstein was convicted and the whole thing blew up. It has the ring of truth to it, but she was hampered in her efforts to be heard by the fact that her attorney was a sleazeball, which she had no way of knowing at that time. I have no trouble believing that Trump raped her. He has already announced to all of us that he is a rapist in several widely seen and heard interviews and depositions. He was also convicted of "sexual abuse" which is what they call it in the civil court under the type of case that was filed.)
