Maxwell Questioned by DOJ Amid Epstein Case Pressure

Ghislaine Maxwell, serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking as Jeffrey Epstein's accomplice, spent a full day answering questions from Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in Tallahassee amid intensifying calls for transparency from the Trump administration regarding the Epstein case. Maxwell's attorney, David Oscar Markus, stated she responded truthfully to all questions without invoking privilege. The meeting occurred as the House Oversight Committee issued a subpoena for Maxwell to testify in August and after a DOJ memo claimed there were no significant remaining disclosures, both developments fueling public criticism. Blanche emphasized that 'no lead is off limits' and the DOJ is seeking all credible evidence in the ongoing investigation. Maxwell maintains her innocence and is appealing her conviction. There is currently no indication of any promised leniency or additional meetings between Maxwell and the DOJ.
