Twist in Epstein case as Bondi's DOJ to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell
Share and Follow

In a remarkable twist in the winding Jeffrey Epstein case, his associate Ghislaine Maxwell will meet with Donald Trump’s Justice Department. 

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche stated that a meeting is scheduled in the near future, as Trump’s administration is facing backlash for not releasing all documents related to Epstein.

Trump’s supporters are urging him to further investigate the Epstein files, especially after he promised to release such information during his campaign, concerning the convicted pedophile.

On Tuesday morning, Attorney General Pam Bondi disclosed that her deputy would soon meet with the sole person currently incarcerated for involvement in Epstein’s child sex trafficking network.

‘President Trump has told us to release all credible evidence,’ Blanche said in a statement posted to X by Bondi. ‘If Ghislane Maxwell has information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims, the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say.’

Maxwell, 63, is in the midst of serving a 20-year prison sentence for her role in Epstein’s crimes. 

Her attorney David Oscar Markus told CNN the team is in discussions to have Maxwell tell her side of the story.

‘I can confirm that we are in discussions with the government and that Ghislaine will always testify truthfully,’ Markus said. ‘We are grateful to President Trump for his commitment to uncovering the truth in this case.’

Just last week, the DOJ opposed Maxwell’s request to have the Supreme Court review her case, with her lawyers claiming she should have never been charged because of a 2008 plea deal the courts struck with Epstein.

Trump tried desperately to get his base to abandon criticism of Bondi and the FBI after a memo earlier this month concluded the review found no foul play in Epstein’s death. 

MAGA supporters were particularly enraged that no new material was produced in the Epstein files review and that Trump’s DOJ found no existence of a so-called ‘client list’ of high profile co-conspirators. 

The president even started calling the whole ordeal the ‘Epstein hoax’ and claimed Democrats were to blame for stoking conspiracies in an effort to divide Republicans.

When that didn’t work, Trump directed Bondi last week to request the Southern District of New York to unseal grand jury testimony in the Epstein court case.

And now, Blanche will meet with Maxwell to ask her: ‘What do you know?’

‘I’ve contacted her counsel,’ Blanche said. ‘I intend to meet with her soon. No one is above the law—and no lead is off-limits.’

Still, Blanche insists that the July 6 joint memo from the DOJ and FBI regarding the Epstein files review ‘remains accurate.’

He says that the department’s recent review did not uncover any new evidence that could bring charges against others potentially involved in the crimes.

It’s not clear if Maxwell will want to speak with Blanche, but he has asked her lawyers to inquire about her willingness to do so.

However, a source who spoke with the Daily Mail said that Maxwell would be ‘more than happy’ to testify before Congress and tell them her side of the story.

‘No-one from the government has ever asked her to share what she knows,’ the source said. ‘She remains the only person to be jailed in connection to Epstein and she would welcome the chance to tell the American public the truth.’

Blanche’s statement on Tuesday morning acknowledges that no administration or DOJ has ever asked Maxwell to speak with them about the Epstein case.

‘That changes now,’ he insisted.
