A deposition by Ghislaine Maxwell before a U.S. congressional committee has been put on hold indefinitely, according to a report by Politico. Lawmakers had planned to question Maxwell, who is serving a federal prison sentence for sex-trafficking crimes, but no new date has been set and no reason for the delay was given. Maxwell was expected to appear under subpoena as part of a legislative inquiry. The postponement suspends what would have been her first public testimony since her 2021 conviction for helping financier Jeffrey Epstein abuse underage girls.
