According to the New York Post, Ghislaine Maxwell claimed in court papers that a group of 25 alleged accomplices of Jeffrey Epstein made “secret settlements” with accusers.

“New Evidence reveals that there were 25 men with which the plaintiff lawyers reached secret settlements – that could equally be considered as co-conspirators,” Maxwell wrote in the papers, according to the outlet.

“None of these men have been prosecuted and none has been revealed to [Maxwell]; she would have called them as witnesses had she known,” Maxwell wrote.

More from the New York Post:

The 63-year-old disgraced British socialite claimed this newly discovered evidence — coupled with the fact she allegedly had a biased jury — meant she didn’t get a fair trial.

“If the jury had heard of the new evidence of the collusion between the plaintiff’s lawyers and the government to conceal evidence and the prosecutorial misconduct, they would not have convicted,” she wrote.

The fact that there could still be unmasked accomplices of the prolific sex criminal raises questions about if and when those names will be revealed, given the legislature’s passing of the Epstein Files Transparency Act in November.

It is unclear whether the 25 men who reached “secret settlements” with plaintiff lawyers also reached deals with the feds, shielding them from prosecution.

However, to date, only Maxwell and Epstein have been charged in connection with Epstein’s depraved sex-trafficking network.

Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex trafficking, which she seeks to overturn.

Mediaite reported the revelation surfaced after the “entire habeas corpus petition that was filed on Dec. 17,” was published.

Mediaite shared further:

More than two million files pertaining to Epstein’s crimes are yet to be released, according to the DOJ.

Maxwell is set to testify in a closed-door hearing before the House Oversight Committee on Feb. 9. Her deposition will be virtual and she is expected to plead the Fifth Amendment, according to chairman James Comer (R-KY).
