This episode contains descriptions of self-harm and alleged sexual abuse.
When Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide in a federal jail, dozens of his alleged victims lost their chance to bring him to justice.
But the trial of his associate, Ghislaine Maxwell, on charges that she recruited, groomed and ultimately helped Mr. Epstein abuse young girls, may offer an opportunity to obtain a degree of reckoning.
We look into how Mr. Epstein was allowed to die, and ask whether justice is still possible for his accusers.
