In contrast to her former employers Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, Sarah Kellen seems to be living a carefree life as she makes her way around Manhattan to see her personal trainer.
The one who committed suicide while awaiting trial on child sex charges dodged justice, while the other will find out next week how long she will be imprisoned for procuring young women for the paedophile tycoon to abuse.
The contrast between Maxwell’s situation and that of her former right-hand lady Miss Kellen, 43, could not be more glaring as she faces up to 55 years in prison in New York on Tuesday.
She has since rebranded as Sarah Kensington, an interior designer, and is now wed to former Nascar driver and investor Brian Vickers.
She and her husband also possess a £5.1 million property in Miami in addition to their £4.3 million SoHo penthouse.
They were spotted walking a short distance to their personal trainer’s studio last week, where courses are reportedly £120 per hour.
On the warm summer day, the couple appeared at ease while traveling in gym gear and spending the majority of the time on their phones.
It is a long cry from Miss Kellen’s previous employment as Maxwell and Epstein’s personal secretary. For allegedly finding and scheduling minors for “massages,” she has been branded Epstein’s “lieutenant.”
After Maxwell and Epstein, she was the “third knowing participant,” according to the prosecution’s description in court documents this week.
But because she was one of four women who received immunity from prosecution for Epstein’s abuse, she has never been held accountable for the scandal.
His attorneys convinced the government to sign an agreement in 2008 that shielded ‘possible co-conspirators’ from further charges.
In exchange for the billionaire admitting guilt to the less serious crime of recruiting an underage girl for prostitution, several significant charges against Epstein and his “co-conspirators” were dropped.
After Epstein committed suicide in prison in 2019, focus shifted to Maxwell, opening the door for her belated prosecution in 2018.
Maxwell, who trafficked minors for Epstein, might potentially die in prison, but Miss Kellen is free to carry on with her life, much to the disgust of the abuse victims.
David Boies, the attorney representing the victims, told the Mail that for the prosecution to stop there would be a terrible injustice and that co-conspirators should also be held accountable.
Brad Edwards, an attorney for another US victim, suggested that Miss Kellen either reveal evidence to aid those who are “still seeking justice” or face further legal action.
Prosecutors claimed in their report prior to Maxwell’s sentencing that the former socialite had taught her how to take over booking massage appointments.
Requests for comment from Miss Kellen’s attorney went unanswered.
