Ghislaine Maxwell, the longtime associate of sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, is set to be questioned behind closed doors by the US congress. Born into a life of privilege, Maxwell was the youngest daughter of British media tycoon Robert Maxwell. She went on to work for her father and became a well-known socialite, but her relationship with Jeffrey Epstein would eventually lead to her arrest in 2020. A year later she was found guilty of conspiring with Epstein to sexually abuse minors and sentenced to 20-years behind bars.
