Overview

  • Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche announced that the DOJ will meet Maxwell in the coming days to determine if she will cooperate with prosecutors under an immunity proposal.
  • Maxwell has publicly offered to testify about Jeffrey Epstein’s operations if granted immunity, portraying herself as the key witness to allegations of a secret client list.
  • Senators Mike Lee and Josh Hawley, along with Representative Tim Burchett, have introduced motions to compel Maxwell’s testimony before congressional committees.
  • Maxwell’s legal team has appealed to the U.S. Supreme Court, asserting her 2021 conviction breached Epstein’s 2008 Florida plea deal, while the DOJ has urged the Court to reject her bid.
  • President Trump’s $10 billion defamation lawsuit against the Wall Street Journal over an alleged obscene letter highlights the wider political stakes in the Epstein records dispute.
