Virginia Guiffre’s memoir Nobody’s Girl is due to be released posthumously today. Guiffre, an advocate for justice and vocal accuser of Jeffrey Epstein, died earlier this year. Although it was officially ruled as suicide, her family later called details of her death into question.
In her new memoir, Guiffre details how she was sex trafficked by Epstein and his then-girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, and, she alleged, was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew. She details horrific abuse at Epstein’s hands that took place between 2000 and 2002 at Epstein’s Palm Beach home, his Manhattan home, his Zorro Ranch in New Mexico and his private island Little Saint James.
As her memoir is released, here is what happened to Virginia Guiffre.
