NextImg:Virginia Giuffre, Who Accused Jeffrey Epstein Of Sex Abuse, Dies By Suicide, Her Family Says
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Virginia Giuffre, one of the most prominent accusers of Jeffrey Epstein, has died by suicide at age 41, her family told multiple news outlets on Friday.

Giuffre met Ghislaine Maxwell in 2000 while she was a teenager working at Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago. Maxwell offered her a job as a masseuse to Epstein, a wealthy financier, which allegedly kicked off years of sex trafficking and abuse.

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

As an adult, Giuffre sued Epstein and Maxwell, then took her accusations public. Her story featured prominently in the Miami Herald’s series that reexamined how the criminal justice system failed the many young women and girls abused by Epstein. In 2019, he was arrested on federal sex trafficking charges and later died in custody.

Giuffre also accused Prince Andrew of abusing her, sharing a photo that showed her as a teenager posing with him and Epstein. Andrew denied her allegations and settled a lawsuit out of court.

Giuffre had recently been in the news after she was in a car accident in Australia and posted a photo showing herself bruised and injured.

“Virginia was a fierce warrior in the fight against sexual abuse and sex trafficking,” her family’s statement continued. “She was the light that lifted so many survivors.”
