Virginia Roberts Giuffre was born August 9, 1983, and the AI conference where she was directed to have sex with Marvin Minsky was in April 2002, so she was 18 at the time.
According to a witness, she did approach Minsky at one point, and he told her to get lost. Minsky's wife was with him the whole trip and confirmed that nothing untoward happened.
Giuffre did not accuse Minksy herself. Rather, her testimony in a 2015 suit against Ghislaine Maxwell became known, in which she stated that Maxwell had "directed" her to have sex with Minsky, but never said she actually did. But of course our reliable media ran with the story anyway, first falsely claiming Giuffre was only 17, and smearing Minsky (who died in 2016) by saying that he had had sex with an underage sex slave. His Wikipedia article even had a section titled "Allegation of child sex abuse". Eventually enough people came forward with more information, and Minsky's name is mostly cleared.
Giuffre has an active Twitter account, and could have clarified at any point, but never did.
