Accused madam Ghislaine Maxwell once directed a room of underage girls to "kiss, dance and touch one another in a sexual way" for late pedophile boss Jeffrey Epstein, according to newly released court documents.
A witness told of the alleged creepy forced performance in testimony that was revealed in 112 court documents running to thousands of pages that were released late Wednesday.
They also include a handwritten telephone note from July 2004 in which Maxwell, now 59, warned Epstein that a girl age 14 at the time was "available" and that he had "no one for tomorrow."

Another witness was recorded as being "in tears" as he recalled a 15-year-old girl "in utmost distress" — claiming that Maxwell "stole the young girl’s passport and tried to make her have sex with Epstein and then threatened her."
The disturbing allegations were part of a trove of documents released by US District Judge Loretta Preska from a since-settled lawsuit brought against Maxwell by one of Epstein’s accusers, Virginia Roberts Giuffre.
Although Maxwell was allowed to keep documents detailing her sex life private, the released sections included testimony that Maxwell and Epstein had sex sessions with strap-ons and dildos.
Most damningly, a witness — whose name was redacted — "testified that he watched Maxwell direct a room full of underage girls to kiss, dance, and touch one another in a sexual way for [Maxwell] and Epstein to watch," the documents stated.
Another witness also testified that Maxwell "recruited her from her school campus to have sex with Epstein with lies about being her personal assistant," the report said.

Some of the most explicit testimony comes from Giuffre’s ex-boyfriend, Anthony Figueroa, according to DailyMail.com.
Asked if Giuffre ever talked to him about her often-repeated claim that she was made to have sex with Prince Andrew, he admitted he could not "recall" her doing so, but said it "could be possible."
But Figueroa said Epstein did want the accuser to have sex with "Ms. Maxwell and all the other girls" — and that she was forced into a threesome after "Jeffrey wanted Virginia to have sex with Ms. Maxwell," who used "strap-ons and dildos" on her, the Mail said.
"Ms. Maxwell and Jeffrey would obviously be doing stuff, all three of them together," he said, according to the report.
"They would all go out to clubs to pick up girls and try and find them to bring back for Jeffrey.

"And then she told me about how, like I said, her and Ms. Maxwell and Jeffrey were all intimate together on multiple occasions," Figueroa reportedly stated.
The documents also show how Maxwell tried to dismiss the complaints made by Giuffre — including that she was forced to have sex with Prince Andrew — by claiming she had an "opioid addiction" and had previously "cried rape" as a teenager, the Sun said.
She branded Giuffre a "professional victim" and "sexually permissive" by digging up earlier police reports, according to the report.
However, Maxwell’s plan of attack came undone when two of her own witnesses called to defend her in the lawsuit said they witnessed her "escort young girls he brought over to Epstein’s home to Epstein for sex acts." They also said Maxwell "called him on the phone, asking him to bring over girls to Epstein’s home," according to the documents.

"Now, there is actual, live testimonial evidence that [Maxwell] was a procurer of young girls for sex with Jeffrey Epstein, with whom she shared a home and a life, thus validating Ms. Giuffre’s claims," lawyers for Giuffre said of the witnesses’ testimony.
Maxwell has been held without bail since pleading not guilty in July to recruiting girls for Epstein to abuse in the mid-1990s.
Epstein, 66, hanged himself in his Manhattan lockup in August 2019 as he awaited a sex-trafficking trial.
