Overview
- Justice Department published full transcripts and audio of July interviews with Ghislaine Maxwell conducted by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche under limited-immunity terms.
- Maxwell denied any Epstein “client list,” said she never saw President Donald Trump or former President Bill Clinton act inappropriately, and stated she does not believe Epstein died by suicide.
- DOJ delivered a first tranche of Epstein-related records to the House Oversight Committee, which said the production totals thousands of pages and will be reviewed for victim protections before any public release.
- U.S. District Judge Richard Berman rejected the DOJ bid to unseal Epstein grand jury materials, calling it a diversion and noting the government holds about 100,000 pages it could disclose, marking the third such judicial denial.
- Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence and was moved to a minimum-security camp after the interviews, as her attorney David Markus asserted her innocence and praised the decision to release the records.
