MELBOURNE – The victim of Jeffrey Epstein, Virginia Giuffre, has taken her own life, according to NBC News.
Giuffre was one of the most vocal Epstein accusers who inspired others to speak out.
“It is with utterly broken hearts that we announce that Virginia passed away last night at her farm in Western Australia. She lost her life to su*cide, after being a lifelong victim of s*xual abuse and s*x trafficking,” the family said.

“Virginia was a fierce warrior in the fight against s*xual abuse and s*x trafficking.”
“She was the light that lifted so many survivors. In the end, the toll of abuse is so heavy that it became unbearable for Virginia to handle its weight.”
She was abused and groomed from 1999 to 2002 and was allegedly trafficked to powerful people including Prince Andrew.
Shortly before she passed, Giuffre claimed she had just days to live after being in a car accident.
