💨 Abstract

The Department of Justice has contacted Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein's former associate, to discuss information she may have about sexual trafficking crimes. Maxwell's lawyer confirmed ongoing conversations with the government, and she agreed to testify. This move comes amid criticism of the administration's handling of Epstein-related documents. Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison for her role in Epstein's crimes. The DOJ's request to release a sealed grand jury testimony against Epstein is pending a federal judge's decision.
