US prosecutors and defense attorneys lay out their closing arguments in Ghislaine Maxwell’s sex crimes trial Monday before a jury starts considering the fate of the British socialite.

They must reach a unanimous decision to convict. If they cannot agree, then the judge could declare a mistrial.

They argued that between 1994 and 2004, she recruited young girls to be sexually exploited by the American money-manager who killed himself in jail two years ago while awaiting his own trial. Two said they were as young as 14 when Maxwell allegedly began grooming them and arranging for them to give massages to Epstein that ended in sexual activity.

Another, going by “Carolyn,” said she was usually paid $300 after sexual encounters with Epstein, often by Maxwell herself.
