McCawley wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n[G]eneralized aversion to embarrassment and negativity that may come from being associated with Epstein and Maxwell is not enough to warrant continued sealing of information. This is especially true with respect to this case of great public interest, involving serious allegations of the sex trafficking of minors.<\/p>\n<p>Now that Maxwell\u2019s criminal trial has come and gone, there is little reason to retain protection over the vast swaths of information about Epstein and Maxwell\u2019s sex-trafficking operation that were originally filed under seal in this case.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Last month, a jury&nbsp;<a class=\"x5l\" href=\"https:\/\/www.cnn.com\/2021\/12\/15\/us\/ghislaine-maxwell-trial-accusers\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener external\">convicted<\/a>&nbsp;former Epstein accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell of sex trafficking of minors, transporting a minor with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, and three counts of conspiracy.
