But I wanted to do this video
because I think that there is a separate take on this
and that is her defense team was actually
revictimizing the accusers in a narcissistic way.
In the way that they presented their defense
and I'm going to tell you what that was in this video.
So stay tuned.
Hey there, I'm Rebecca Zung
and I am a lawyer.
I'm a narcissist negotiation expert and on this channel
and in these videos, I actually break down for you how to shift
the dynamic with the most toxic personality on the planet
and if you want to know how to do that,

Okay.
So today's verdict actually capped off a month-long trial where
Ghislaine Maxwell who was accused of helping Jeffrey Epstein was put on
trial for allegedly assisting Jeffrey Epstein
by luring these women in to let him be the one to actually sexually abuse
these young women.
She would like source them basically
and then he would do these disgusting things
with these young women
and honestly, I've read the accounts of what these women would say that
he would do with them.
I'm not going to repeat it.
It's just too disgusting and too lurid and awful to repeat.
You can go and google anything and go and read it for yourself.
Honestly.
My take on this is actually
what her defense was and her defense was basically first of all that she
was really just a scapegoat, that he was dead
and so they just needed somebody to fill the shoes and there she was and they just,
you know, decided to pull her in and there she was.
So that's kind of part of it which is utter
and complete craziness as far as a defense,
but the other piece of it as far as her defense,
was that the accusers memories were just simply faulty.
That they were distorted in some way and
that is where I want to say is actually gaslighting.
That's actually a very typical way of
handling victims from a narcissist perspective
and that's something that I wanted to actually bring up as far as a different
kind of a take than you normally see.
By the way,
this is the kind of thing and the kind of reason
why that accusers don't want to come forward.
Because they get re-victimized again,
you know and thank goodness that.
you know, she was actually convicted by the way.
But anyway, so they questioned
whether or not the accusers memories were faulty
or had been influenced by big payouts or you know,
that sort of thing, but they bring forward this witness named Elizabeth
who was a professor who had been
testified in the past and other big trials
including the trial of Harvey Weinstein and they said that,
you know, perhaps their recollections
were flawed and perhaps that they weren't remembering correctly,
that their memories were distorted.
Perhaps they were attached to the wrong things that they were.
Remembering things that weren't supposed
to be remembered or blowing things up.
That shouldn't have been blown up,
all sorts of things that weren't true or were true.
But basically trying to gaslight the accusers and re-victimized the accusers so that,
you know, she could win
and I just wanted to bring that up
because this is a typical move of a narcissist
and, you know, it's a way to revictimize the accusers,
and I do want to say,
kudos to these accusers,
who had the courage to come forward,
had the courage to do this.
It took a lot of guts and by the way,
only one of the accusers actually used her real name.
My goodness, what a lot of courage that certainly took.
I’m sure.
So at any rate, Ghislaine Maxwell will be spending
a lot of time in prison.
I'm sure and there she is.
She is convicted and by the way,
I did do another whole video
on whether or not she was a victim
or a perpetrator because
Ghislaine Maxwell actually was a victim of narcissistic abuse
as a child and that just shows how narcissists and
especially malignant narcissist like Ghislaine Maxwell
clearly ended up to be can become malignant narcissist
because they were victims of narcissist as children.
It's very, very sad.
So you might want to check out my video on that
and I would love to know your thoughts about this in the comments.
I mean, this is exactly why especially women
don't want to come forward or any kind of I say women,
but you know anyone who was a victim of narcissistic abuse
doesn't want to come forward because
they get re-victimized again and you do see this,
by the way, even by the legal system,
by lawyers, by judges often times
because people don't want to be re-victimized.
It happens not just by big cases like this,
but you also see it w ith in other cases,
as well by your lawyers, by your own lawyer.
,by the judges,
by you know, the whole entire system sometimes
you know, people who have been victimized by
narcissists are now being re-victimized again in the system.
So, you know, the only way that we can get this to stop is by speaking out about it
and making sure that we highlight this sort of thing.
You know, it's not okay to go ahead and gaslight the accuser
and gaslight the victim again
and revictimize them when they come forward.
It's just not okay.
If you don't think it's okay,
put that in the comments.
It's not okay
and I would love to know what your thoughts about this in the comments.
