Justice Department Wants to Interview Jeffrey Epstein’s Former Girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell

7 hours ago The Justice Department wants to interview Jeffrey Epstein’s ex-girlfriend Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted of helping the New York financier sexually abuse underage girls and is in prison. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche says he anticipates meeting with Maxwell in the coming days. Maxwell's lawyer confirmed Tuesday there were discussions with the government and says Maxwell will always testify truthfully. The overture to attorneys for Maxwell is part of a Justice Department effort to cast itself as transparent following fierce backlash from parts of President Donald Trump’s base over an earlier refusal to release additional records in the Epstein investigation. Blanche says the Republican president has told the department "to release all credible evidence.”
