Ghislaine Maxwell’s long-shot bid to overturn her sex crimes conviction was soundly rejected Tuesday — by a judge who ripped Jeffrey Epstein’s notorious madam for filing a “rambling” motion from prison. “Maxwell’s claims are all meritless and all or almost all are frivolous,” Manhattan Federal Judge Paul Engelmayer wrote in a scathing 67-page decision. The jailed sex trafficker’s Hail Mary bid for release filed last December did not come close to backing up her claims that she was wrongly convicted on charges of luring girls into the dead financier’s orbit for more than a decade, the judge wrote.
