    Ghislaine  Maxwell has been sentenced to 20 years in prison on charges of sex trafficking

    Ghislaine Maxwell has been sentenced to 20 years in prison on charges of sex trafficking


    She'll also face a further five years of supervised release.

    The 60-year-old former British socialite recruited young girls for her former boyfriend -- billionaire paedophile Jeffrey Epstein -- during the 1990s and early 2000s.

    Many of her victims wanted a longer sentence.
