Virginia Giuffre ‘didn’t kill herself': Netizens sound alarm, resurface her ‘4 days to live after car crash’ incident

One of the prominent survivors of Jeffrey Epstein’s sexual abuse, Virginia Giuffre, died by suicide aged 41 in Western Australia, her family said. Giuffre was among the most vocal accusers of convicted sex offenders Jeffrey Epstein and his former partner, Ghislaine Maxwell. She had claimed they trafficked her to Prince Andrew, the Duke of York, when she was 17, an allegation he has strongly refused. Internet users have demanded justice and said her "courage will not be forgotten".

One of the users said, “Rest in peace, Virginia Giuffre… you deserved so much better, and your courage will not be forgotten.” Another stated, “Victims deserve justice. Rest easy, Virginia. I’m sorry this world failed you so profoundly.” “Virginia Giuffre deserved justice. We will never know the truth. Disgusting people abused her. Disgusting people silenced her. Disgusting people are covering up for her abusers. Disgusting people caused her untimely death. First-hand or second-hand, matters not", “She, and hundreds of victims like her, deserve justice!”, were some other comments made.

A few refused to believe it was a suicide, saying “Remember this.…Hit by a bus. 4 days to live Now suicide right. Virginia Giuffre did not kill herself!”, “After being suspiciously involved in a car crash that was never really explained, Epstein's most damning accuser...Virginia Giuffre has supposedly committed suicide. I believe she "killed herself" about as much as much as Epstein did. Oh, and where the hell is that client list?"

Virgina Giuffre case

Virginia Giuffre endured a difficult life from a young age. She was raised in Florida. A family friend sexually abused her, which led her to live on the streets as a teenager. During this vulnerable period, Giuffre encountered Ghislaine Maxwell, who allegedly groomed her to be sexually abused by Jeffrey Epstein between 1999 and 2002. Giuffre later accused Epstein of trafficking her to powerful men, including Prince Andrew and modeling agent Jean-Luc Brunel.

Epstein, the financier at the center of the abuse scandal, died by suicide in 2019 while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Maxwell was convicted in 2021 for her role in recruiting underage girls for Epstein and was sentenced to prison. In 2021, Giuffre filed a lawsuit against Prince Andrew, alleging he abused her when she was 17; the case was settled in 2022, with Andrew denying the allegations. That same year, Giuffre testified against Brunel in a French court, seeking justice for herself and other victims.

“I wanted Brunel to know that he no longer has the power over me. I’ve decided to hold him accountable for what he did to me and so many others,” she had stated after the trial. Giuffre shifted to Australia with her husband and children prior to Epstein’s arrest.
