Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche wants to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s associate.
I wonder how this will turn out. I cannot see Maxwell giving up anything without a deal. She’s serving 20 years in prison after a jury convicted her of sex trafficking of a minor, transporting a minor with the intent to engage in criminal sexual activity, and conspiracy.
Maxwell has already said “she’s willing to testify before Congress on Epstein’s apparent full client list.”
From Attorney General Pam Bondi on X:
Statement from @DAGToddBlanche:This Department of Justice does not shy away from uncomfortable truths, nor from the responsibility to pursue justice wherever the facts may lead. The joint statement by the DOJ and FBI of July 6 remains as accurate today as it was when it was written. Namely, that in the recent thorough review of the files maintained by the FBI in the Epstein case, no evidence was uncovered that could predicate an investigation against uncharged third parties.President Trump has told us to release all credible evidence. If Ghislane Maxwell has information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims, the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say.Therefore, at the direction of Attorney General Bondi, I have communicated with counsel for Ms. Maxwell to determine whether she would be willing to speak with prosecutors from the Department. I anticipate meeting with Ms. Maxwell in the coming days. Until now, no administration on behalf of the Department had inquired about her willingness to meet with the government. That changes now.
Blanche followed up:
Justice demands courage. For the first time, the Department of Justice is reaching out to Ghislaine Maxwell to ask: what do you know? At @AGPamBondi’s direction, I’ve contacted her counsel. I intend to meet with her soon. No one is above the law—and no lead is off-limits.
Bondi already requested the Southern District of New York to unseal grand jury transcripts from July 2, 2019, and June 29, 2020.
So far, it’s all words. The fury behind anything Epstein won’t stop until we know his clients and what happened.
A few days ago, The New York Post reported that Maxwell has supposedly been documenting “absolutely everything” as she speaks to her lawyers every day.
Maxwell’s former cellmate said the former madam “isn’t suicidal in the least.” Therefore, if anything happens, it will arouse even more suspicion about Epstein’s supposed suicide.
