Overview

• The Justice Department published audio and redacted transcripts from two July interviews conducted by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche with Ghislaine Maxwell.
• Maxwell said there is no Epstein “client list” or black book and offered no new incriminating evidence tying prominent figures to crimes, according to the materials and news summaries.
• She praised President Donald Trump and said she never saw him act inappropriately, denied introducing Prince Andrew to Jeffrey Epstein, and contested Virginia Giuffre’s allegations including calling a well‑known photo “fake.”
• Maxwell questioned the official suicide finding in Epstein’s 2019 jail death, suggesting an internal prison failure rather than an outside plot.
• DOJ began transmitting Epstein records to the House Oversight Committee for review and possible release after redactions, and Maxwell’s proffer came with limited immunity followed by a transfer to a Texas minimum‑security camp.
