Lisa Wilkinson Instagram – So declared Assistant US Attorney Maurene Comey to jurors in her closing address in the trial of now-convicted sex trafficker and former partner of Jeffrey Epstein, Ghislaine Maxwell. She went on: “Maxwell never thought that those teenage girls would have the strength to report what happened to them. In her eyes, they were just trash beneath her.” So, in a year when so many women of all ages dug deep, found their voices and courageously came forward to tell their stories, here is to ALL the Janes, Kates, Carolyns, Annies, Brittanys, Graces, and so so many others….thank you. Your extraordinary – and continued – bravery is helping to build a better, safer world for all our daughters – and sons – to come. @brittanyhiggins___ @tamepunk @gracetamefoundation
