The lawyers for British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell have filed for a retrial, after learning a juror may have had a conflict of interest in the case

Lawyers for Ghislaine Maxwell have now officially requested her conviction be overturned and the case go to a retrial.

The request comes after one of the jurors in her high-profile case revealed that he was a victim of sexual abuse when he was a minor.

60 year old Maxwell was convicted on five counts of sex trafficking and other crimes for recruiting and grooming teenage girls to have sexual encounters convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

The British socialite is due to be sentenced in late June and faces up to 65 years in prison.

Trump’s ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas may reshape global markets and trigger new economic dynamics.


Donald Trump’s latest diplomatic breakthrough — a ceasefire and potential peace deal between Israel and Hamas — could have ripple effects far beyond the Middle East. The former U.S. president is eyeing economic reconstruction opportunities in the region, with energy, infrastructure, and trade set to benefit if stability holds.

Experts say the deal could also influence global oil prices, energy markets, and investment flows, as renewed peace opens the door to new development projects. But it could also trigger volatility if negotiations falter or regional rivalries reignite.

As Trump prepares for further talks with China on trade and critical minerals, economists are watching closely. Could this mark the beginning of a new era of economic détente — or the start of another global power struggle centred around strategic resources?

Australia seeks a $1.2 billion minerals deal with the U.S. to reduce reliance on China ahead of Albanese-Trump talks.


Australia is racing to secure a landmark critical minerals deal with the United States ahead of Prime Minister Anthony Albanese’s upcoming meeting with President Donald Trump. The agreement, worth an estimated $1.2 billion, aims to strengthen supply chains and reduce both nations’ reliance on China’s mineral dominance.

The deal would see Australia establish a strategic reserve of rare earths, backed by U.S. investment and government funding. Australian miners are being consulted on potential price floors and financing models that could redefine the future of the country’s resources sector.

However, questions remain over the economic risks. Analysts warn that introducing price controls and heavy government intervention could have unintended consequences, especially if China retaliates with tariffs or production cuts. The deal could reshape global competition for critical minerals essential to defence, energy, and technology industries.
