Ghislaine Maxwell, according to her lawyer David Oscar Markus, is willing to share her full story if she is released from prison.
“Ms. Maxwell is ready to offer a thorough and truthful account if President Trump grants her clemency,” Markus stated.
He emphasized that Maxwell’s testimony is crucial for the complete picture to emerge, even if some might find the revelations unsettling. “The truth is important,” he added.
Markus particularly noted that both President Trump and President Clinton have no involvement in any misconduct.
He also mentioned that he advised Maxwell to exercise her Fifth Amendment rights due to an ongoing appeal petition.
The Fifth Amendment is a US constitutional right not to answer questions so as not to incriminate oneself.
“In my opinion, they have filed this writ of habeas corpus just to use it as an excuse to not answer more questions because again, we know that she’s a monster,” Democratic Representative Jasmine Crockett said.
Maxwell is a few years into a 20-year sentence for child sex trafficking.
She is being held at a Federal Prison Camp in Bryan, Texas.
She was transferred to the lowest security federal prison in America after speaking to Trump-appointed deputy attorney general Todd Blanche.
The details of that interview have not been revealed.
Democratic Congressman Ro Khanna called on Maxwell to be moved back to a maximum security prison after refusing to testify.
“Who were the other men who raped these underage girls?” he said.
“Did she have any conversations about a deal with Donald Trump?
“Why did she not plead the Fifth when Blanche asked her questions, and now she’s pleading the Fifth about things that don’t implicate her but implicate many of the other people in the Epstein class?”
“Epstein’s lawyers synopsised and quoted Trump as saying that Jeffrey Epstein was not a member of his club at Mar-a-Lago, but he was a guest at Mar-a-Lago and he had never been asked to leave,” Rep. Jamie Raskin said.
“And that was redacted for some indeterminate, inscrutable reason.”
Lutnick had publicly claimed he had met Epstein once and resolved he wanted to never meet him again.
But the emails revealed Lutnick discussed visiting Epstein’s island years after the financier was convicted for soliciting a child for prostitution.
“Secretary Howard Lutnick lied to the country about his ties to Epstein. Now we learned that they were in business together,” Democratic Senator Adam Schiff said.
“He has no business being our Commerce Secretary. He should resign.”
Garcia was joined by Republican Thomas Massie in his calls.
“Really, (Lutnick) should make life easier on the president, frankly, and just resign,” Massie said.
The testimonies will take place behind closed doors despite the pair calling for the hearing to be public.
