Virginia Giuffre has tragically taken her own life at the age of 41, as confirmed by her family. She was among those who accused Jeffrey Epstein and Prince Andrew of sexual misconduct. Giuffre alleged that they had trafficked her to the Duke of York when she was just 17, a claim that Prince Andrew has denied repeatedly. Her family stated that she passed away on Friday in Western Australia, where she had resided for several years. “Virginia was a strong advocate in the battle against sexual abuse and human trafficking.” She was the beacon that raised the spirits of countless survivors. “In spite of the numerous challenges she encountered throughout her life, her brilliance was undeniable. “Her absence will be deeply felt,” the statement said. Authorities in Western Australia announced that they were summoned to a residence in Neergabby late Friday evening. They reported that efforts to resuscitate Giuffre were unsuccessful and did not indicate any signs of foul play. Giuffre resided in North Perth with her husband Robert and their children, and she had shared on Instagram three weeks prior that she had sustained serious injuries in a car accident.
