She has denied all claims against her. On Monday, Ghislaine's brother Ian - seen on the far right perched on the arm of a sofa - spoke out in her defense, calling her a 'patsy' for Jeffrey Epstein and claiming she is now being scapegoated because the American authorities 'lost' Epstein when he killed himself in his jail cell.
