NEW YORK (AP) — Accusers in the upcoming New York City trial of a British socialite charged with helping Jeffrey Epstein abuse teenage girls will testify using pseudonyms or first names to protect their privacy. U.S. District Judge Alison Nathan made the decision at a pretrial hearing for Ghislaine Maxwell. Maxwell was brought into the courtroom in shackles.
