Ghislaine Maxwell’s Comments on Trump to DOJ
Ghislaine Maxwell, previously associated with convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, told the Department of Justice (DOJ) that President Donald Trump was “inappropriate for anyone” and that she had “never seen it.”
On Friday, the DOJ released recordings and transcripts from a two-day interview with Associate Attorney General Todd Blanche, which took place in Tallahassee, Florida, in July. Following this interview, Maxwell was transferred to a low-security facility in Texas.
According to reports, Maxwell did not provide significant new information about other high-profile individuals linked to Epstein, including former President Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and others.
Maxwell, aged 63, reportedly provided very little new information regarding other notable figures related to Epstein.
During the interview, Blanche inquired, “Have you ever seen President Trump get a massage?” to which Maxwell answered, “Never.”
When Blanche pointed out public photos of Epstein and Trump, Maxwell acknowledged that she appeared in some of those images within social settings. She expressed uncertainty about the nature of Trump’s relationship with Epstein, stating they seemed friendly but weren’t particularly close.
“I don’t think they’re close friends, or at least I’ve never seen the president at his house,” she clarified. Maxwell also emphasized that she had never witnessed any inappropriate behavior from Trump, reiterating that he behaved like a gentleman during their encounters.
In late July, Breitbart News responded to a subpoena from the House Oversight Committee, stating that Maxwell’s lawyers requested “pre-provided immunity and questions” for her to comply with the subpoena.
Maxwell’s lawyer, David Oscar Marx, noted in a letter toCommittee Chairman James Kommer, “Initially, Maxwell invoked her Fifth Amendment rights and declined to testify. However, I would like to explore options for collaboration if a safe and fair path can be agreed upon.”
Maxwell was convicted in December 2021 on multiple counts, including conspiracy to transport minors for sexual exploitation and related offenses, resulting in a 20-year prison sentence. Her family has claimed that she did not receive a fair trial.
