Ghislaine Maxwell, a British socialite and associate of Jeffrey Epstein, was reportedly hacked last year, her attorney told the court in a letter concerning a defamation case brought against her by one of Epstein's accusers, the Daily Mail reports.

Maxwell's attorney Ty Gee wrote in a letter to New York federal Judge Loretta A. Preska that the Second Circuit Court of Appeals in New York "made serious mistakes. For example, it redacted a non-party's name in one location but not another; so the media immediately gained access to that name. As another example, it redacted Ms. Maxwell's email address (which linked to her own domain name) in one location but not another; shortly afterward hackers breached the host computer."

These details erroneously were released as part of 2,000 pages of documents made public by the court last August.

Virginia Giuffre sued Maxwell for defamation in 2015 after Giuffre accused Maxwell of approaching her in 1999, when Giuffre was 15 years old, and convincing her to have sex with Epstein, who she said used her as a "sex slave" for almost three years. Giuffre also alleges that she was forced to sleep with Prince Andrew on three occasions when she was 17 years old. Maxwell and the prince both have denied the allegations.

According to The Telegraph, last December it was revealed that Maxwell exchanged emails with Prince Andrew in 2015 about Giuffre. The prince reportedly begged Maxwell to help defend him from the accusations against him, but Maxwell refused.

Maxwell did not respond to requests for comment from the Daily Mail or The Telegraph.
