Ghislaine Maxwell Denies Epstein Client List Exists

Ghislaine Maxwell, currently serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking linked to Jeffrey Epstein, told Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in a July interview that there is no "client list" or "black book" of Epstein's associates, dismissing conspiracy theories about such documents. Maxwell denied witnessing any inappropriate behavior by President Donald Trump or other high-profile individuals, including Prince Andrew and Bill Clinton, asserting that Epstein was secretive and did not share such information. She also defended Prince Andrew against allegations of sexual misconduct and refuted claims that she introduced him to Epstein. The Justice Department released transcripts and audio of Maxwell's interview amid public scrutiny and political pressure, especially from Trump supporters expecting damaging revelations about Epstein's connections. Despite the release, the DOJ maintains many records remain sealed to protect victims, and no new incriminating evidence against prominent figures has emerged from Maxwell's statements. Maxwell, who has petitioned the Supreme Court to overturn her conviction, continues to seek a pardon from President Trump.
