Virginia Giuffre was one of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein’s most outspoken accusers. Six months after her death, Giuffre’s book detailing her life will be published.
Virginia Roberts Giuffre was a driving force in exposing what federal prosecutors later called a sex trafficking ring in which Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell exploited hundreds of minors and young women. Now Giuffre’s memoir is poised to tell more of her story: It will be published posthumously, months after Giuffre died by suicide at age 41.
Giuffre’s 400-page memoir, Nobody’s Girl, will come out on Oct. 21, according to Alfred A. Knopf. The publisher describes Giuffre as „the woman whose decision to speak out helped send both serial abusers to prison, whose photograph with Prince Andrew catalyzed his fall from grace.“
News of the book’s publication comes months after Giuffre’s death in April in Australia — the country where she had created a new life for herself as a mother and housewife.
„She left behind a memoir written in the years preceding her death and stated unequivocally that she wanted it published“, Knopf says. „Nobody’s Girl is the riveting and powerful story of an ordinary girl who would grow up to confront extraordinary adversity.“
In court records that have been unsealed — including depositions and an earlier, unpublished memoir — Giuffre described how patterns of molestation and abuse warped her early life. In those documents, she narrated multiple instances where she said adults offered to help the teenage, freckle-faced Virginia Roberts, but turned out instead to be sexual predators.
