Justice Department Releases Transcripts of Ghislaine Maxwell Interviews in Epstein Case [WATCH]

Posted By RVM News Staff On In News,Uncategorized | No Comments

The Justice Department on Friday released transcripts of interviews conducted with Ghislaine Maxwell, the former girlfriend of Jeffrey Epstein, as part of ongoing efforts by the Trump administration to address public pressure over the handling of the high-profile case, as reported [1] by The Associated Press.

The transcripts cover two days of interviews that Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche conducted with Maxwell last month at a Florida courthouse.

Maxwell, convicted in 2021 of aiding Epstein in luring underage girls for sexual abuse, was serving a 20-year prison sentence in Florida before being transferred to a minimum-security prison camp in Texas following the interviews.

Neither her legal team nor the Bureau of Prisons has provided an explanation for the transfer.

In the transcripts [7], Maxwell recalled her early knowledge of Donald Trump through her father, British media magnate Robert Maxwell.

“I may have met Donald Trump at that time, because my father was friendly with him and liked him very much,” she stated, referencing the early 1990s when her father owned the New York Daily News.

Maxwell added that her father was also fond of Trump’s then-wife, Ivana, “because she was also from Czechoslovakia, where my dad was from.”

The Epstein case has drawn attention for years due to his ties with prominent figures, including Prince Andrew, former President Bill Clinton, and President Trump, who has said his relationship with Epstein ended years before the financier’s arrest.

Epstein was arrested in 2019 on sex-trafficking charges and accused of abusing dozens of teenage girls. A month later, he was found dead in a New York jail cell in what officials described as a suicide.

The release of the transcripts follows weeks of public criticism directed at the FBI and Justice Department over the handling of Epstein-related records.

🚨 Ghislaine Maxwell says she “never” saw President Trump “in any massage setting, or in any inappropriate setting in any way. The president was never inappropriate with anybody, in all the times I was with him, he was a gentleman in all respects.”

A previous announcement from the agencies stated no additional documents were suitable for release, and that there was no “client list” as had been suggested.

That announcement fueled further controversy and frustration from Trump supporters, investigators, and commentators who had expected additional disclosures.

Attorney General Pam Bondi had previously indicated that a large collection of records existed and would be reviewed for release.

Earlier this year, the Justice Department invited online commentators to the White House and distributed binders labeled “The Epstein Files: Phase 1” and “Declassified,” which were later found to contain documents already available to the public.

The disclosure of Maxwell’s interviews is the administration’s latest move to address backlash over those earlier announcements. Officials have not indicated when, or if, additional Epstein-related materials will be released.
