Virginia Giuffre, who spoke out against Jeffrey Epstein and Britain's Prince Andrew, "was a fierce warrior in the fight against sexual abuse and sex trafficking," her family said.

Virginia Giuffre, one of Jeffrey Epstein’s accusers, has died, her family said in an April 25 statement. Giuffre, 41, died near her home in Neergabby, Australia. The cause of death was suicide, her family said in the statement.

After years of advocacy and perseverance through the trauma of abuse and sex trafficking, Giuffre took her own life in Australia at 41.
