Overview

• Ghislaine Maxwell was quietly moved from FCI Tallahassee to the minimum-security Federal Prison Camp in Bryan, Texas, days after Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche conducted private interviews with her.
• A coalition of House Democrats, led by Rep. Jamie Raskin, has sent formal letters and issued subpoenas seeking DOJ and Bureau of Prisons documents on Blanche’s meetings and the decision-making behind Maxwell’s relocation.
• Bureau of Prisons policy generally bars sex offenders from minimum-security camps without a rare waiver, raising questions about the irregular expedited process that placed Maxwell in FPC Bryan.
• In New York, U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer rejected the Justice Department’s bid to unseal Maxwell’s grand-jury materials, ruling there are no special circumstances justifying public disclosure.
• Recent media reports claim President Trump privately labeled some Epstein survivors as “Democrats,” a report the White House denies and that has deepened bipartisan scrutiny of his role in handling Epstein-related investigations.
