The US Department of Justice is considering making public both the audio and the transcript of a two-day interview it conducted late last month with Ghislaine Maxwell, according to multiple senior administration officials. The discussions mark the first confirmation that a recording of the nine-hour session exists. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche questioned Maxwell at the US attorney’s office in Tallahassee as part of the government’s continuing inquiry into the Jeffrey Epstein sex-trafficking network. Officials say the material is being transcribed and digitized; any release would come only after portions identifying victims are redacted, a process that could take several weeks. People briefed on the interview say Maxwell told prosecutors she never saw President Donald Trump engage in improper conduct. Trump has publicly endorsed releasing “all credible” evidence while stressing the need to avoid harming third parties. Pressure for transparency has intensified since the House Oversight Committee this week subpoenaed the Justice Department and former officials for Epstein-related records. The internal debate also follows Maxwell’s unusual transfer to a minimum-security federal prison camp in Texas and her ongoing appeal to the US Supreme Court.
Ghislaine Maxwell said that she never saw Donald Trump do anything that would cause concern, during her hours-long meetings with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche over the Jeffrey Epstein case, according to ABC News.
