Maxwell Questioned by DOJ, Faces Congressional Testimony

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has interviewed Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein’s convicted accomplice, at a Florida prison amid increasing pressure on the Justice Department to release Epstein-related files and his alleged client list. Maxwell’s attorney confirmed she answered all questions truthfully and did not invoke privilege during the interviews. Calls for transparency have come from President Trump’s supporters and House committees, while the DOJ has resisted further disclosure, citing the need to protect victims. Democrats now accuse Trump of orchestrating a cover-up due to his past connections with Epstein. Maxwell is expected to testify before Congress as lawmakers investigate government failings in the Epstein case. Blanche stated that the DOJ will release findings from Maxwell’s interviews at a later date.
