The walls of justice continue to close in on the sprawling Jeffrey Epstein sex trafficking case as Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted British socialite serving a 20-year federal sentence, has concluded extensive interviews with top Department of Justice officials.
Over two days of questioning, Maxwell provided detailed information about what her attorney describes as “maybe 100 different people” connected to the case, answering every question posed by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
Maxwell’s cooperation comes amid heightened congressional scrutiny of the Epstein case. The US House Oversight Committee had previously subpoenaed Maxwell for a deposition scheduled for August 11, seeking to compel testimony from the woman many legal experts consider the key to unlocking remaining secrets of the trafficking operation. As prominent defense attorney Alan Dershowitz famously characterized her, Maxwell represents “the Rosetta stone” that could finally unveil the complete scope of Epstein’s criminal enterprise.
The timing of Maxwell’s voluntary cooperation with federal prosecutors suggests a strategic shift in approach. Rather than fighting the congressional subpoena through lengthy legal battles, Maxwell’s legal team appears to have chosen proactive engagement with federal authorities—though without securing any formal protections in return.
