Maxwell’s Associates to Testify on Epstein Case

Associates of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein have agreed to testify under oath before a Congressional committee examining the government’s handling of the Epstein case, according to sources. Ghislaine Maxwell is set to attend the upcoming session.

James Comer, the chairman of the House Oversight Committee leading the inquiry, announced this development. He mentioned, “Her lawyer has indicated she will invoke her fifth amendment rights. I hope she changes her mind because I want to hear from her.”

In a letter to the committee, Maxwell’s legal team stated that she would refuse to testify, arguing that the proceedings would be nothing more than “political theater.” They expressed concerns that it would be a waste of taxpayer money, suggesting no substantial testimony or new information would emerge.

Maxwell, who was convicted in 2021, is currently serving a 20-year sentence for her involvement in sex trafficking and the recruitment of underage girls, predominantly at Epstein’s Florida residence.

Earlier this year, her request for immunity in exchange for testimony was denied by the commission. Subsequently, the commission issued a subpoena requiring her to provide evidence under oath.

Additionally, the House committee plans to evaluate whether former President Bill Clinton and his wife, Hillary Clinton, should be held in contempt for declining to cooperate with the investigation related to Epstein.
