Giuffre Family Demands Justice: Trump’s “Stolen” Comment Deemed Dehumanizing
The family of Virginia Giuffre, a survivor of Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking ring, has strongly condemned recent remarks by former President Donald Trump. Trump, who maintained a long-standing association with the deceased financier, referred to young women being “stolen” from his Mar-a-Lago resort, including Giuffre who worked there as a teenager.
Family Seeks Release of Epstein Documents
Giuffre’s family believes she would have advocated for the public release of all documents related to the Epstein case. They are urging full transparency and accountability for all involved. This call for justice comes amidst mounting pressure on the government surrounding the handling of the Epstein case.
“Stolen” Comment Sparks Outrage
The family reacted with profound disappointment to Trump’s use of the word “stolen.” They argue that this language dehumanizes trafficking survivors, reducing them to mere objects. “Stolen seems very impersonal, feels very much like an object,” they stated, “and these survivors are *not* objects.” They emphasized the immense human cost of trafficking and the need for empathetic, respectful language when discussing survivors’ experiences.
