Glenn Maxwell, a 60-year-old billionaire social activist, has been convicted by a U.S. court of trafficking young girls for prostitution after a lengthy trial.
According to the Associated Press (AP), Glenn Maxwell was found guilty by a 12-member jury in the Manhattan area of New York after five days of deliberation.
Glenn Maxwell has been in prison for the past two years and the trial against her has been going on for a long time. A few months ago, a 12-member jury was formed to convict and convict him.
The jury also recorded statements from at least four women who accused Glenn Maxwell of being involved in prostitution at an early age.
In all, Glenn Maxwell was found guilty of five of the six charges and will be sentenced later, Reuters reported.
The court found him guilty of criminal offenses, including the transfer of underage girls from one place to another for prostitution on December 30.
It is unknown at this time what he will do after leaving the post. However, it is possible that he will be sentenced to at least 65 years in prison and will spend the rest of his life in prison.
While lawyers and leaders of government and human rights groups have expressed satisfaction with Glenn Maxwell's sentencing, the woman's lawyers have expressed frustration and hope to appeal the verdict.
Glenn Maxwell was convicted of trafficking teenage girls into prostitution for his billionaire boyfriend Jeffrey Upston from 1994 to 2004.
Glenn Maxwell's boyfriend committed suicide in a New York jail on August 10, 2019. He was arrested on serious charges, including trafficking of underage girls into prostitution.
The name of Prince Andrew, the youngest son of Queen Elizabeth II, also came to light in the scandal after Jeffrey Upston's suicide.
Prince Andrew also resigned from the royal family after being named in the scandal, while denying all charges against him.
Prince Andrew has been accused of having sex with underage girls with the help of Jeffrey Upston, while a woman named Virginia Robert Goffy has filed a defamation suit against the Queen's son in the United States.
Virginia Robert Goofy is also one of the victims of Jeffrey Upston and Glenn Maxwell.
It is thought that strict legal action will be taken against Prince Andrew, the son of the Queen, after the conviction of Glenn Maxwell, however, it is too early to say anything in this regard.
