After years of silence, Ghislaine Maxwell has finally talked — and what she said could shake the highest levels of power. According to ABC News, Maxwell sat down for nearly nine hours of questioning across two days with the Trump-era Justice Department, answering detailed questions about roughly 100 individuals connected to Jeffrey Epstein.
Maxwell was reportedly granted limited “proffer” immunity — a legal arrangement that allowed her to speak freely without fear of her answers being used against her in future proceedings. Her attorney says she “didn’t hold anything back.”
Though no names have been officially confirmed, insiders say that high-profile politicians, celebrities, and business leaders were discussed during the sessions. Attorney General Todd Blanche, who was once Trump’s lead defense attorney, conducted the interviews and has promised to “reveal more at the appropriate time.”
The meetings are particularly unusual, given that Maxwell is already serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking underage girls — and that she reached out to the Justice Department herself.
Is she seeking a pardon from Trump? Her legal team says not yet… but everyone knows that option is on the table.
