Trump says 'nobody has asked' him to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell - but he has 'right to do it'
Donald Trump has said "nobody has asked" him to pardon Ghislaine Maxwell, but insisted he has "the right to do it" as US president. Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend is currently serving a 20-year sentence after being convicted of helping paedophile financier Jeffrey Epstein traffic and sexually abuse underage girls in 2021. Prosecutors have said Epstein's sex crimes could not have been done without Maxwell, but her lawyers have maintained that she was wrongly prosecuted and denied a fair trial, and have floated the idea of a pardon from Mr Trump. Last week, they asked the US Supreme Court to take up her case. When pressed on the possibility of pardoning Maxwell, Mr Trump told reporters: "I'm allowed to do it, but nobody's asked me to do it." He continued: "I know nothing about it. I don't know anything about the case, but I know I have the right to do it. I have the right to give pardons, I've given pardons to people before, but nobody's even asked me to do it." Mr Trump also said he would not pardon Sean "Diddy" Combs, who was convicted in July on two charges of transportation to engage in prostitution. 4:28 His comments came shortly after the federal Bureau of Prisons (BOP) said Maxwell has been moved to a minimum-security prison camp in Texas. She was being held at a low-security prison in Tallahassee, Florida, that housed men and women, but has now been transferred to a prison camp in Bryan, Texas. When asked why Maxwell was transferred, BOP spokesperson Donald Murphy said he could not comment on the specifics, but that the BOP determines where inmates are sent based on such factors as "the level of security and supervision the inmate requires". Maxwell's lawyer confirmed the move but also declined to discuss the specific reasons for it. The Texas camp houses solely female prisoners, the majority of whom are serving time for nonviolent offences and white-collar crimes, Sky's US partner NBC News reports. Minimum-security federal prison camps house inmates considered to be the lowest security risk and some facilities do not even have fences. A senior administration official told NBC: "Any false assertion this individual was given preferential treatment is absurd. "Prisoners are routinely moved in some instances due to significant safety and danger concerns." Maxwell has received renewed attention in recent weeks, after the US Justice Department said it would not be releasing the so-called 'Epstein files'. The department said a review of the Epstein case had found "no incriminating 'client list'" and "no credible evidence" the jailed financier - who killed himself in prison in 2019 - had blackmailed famous men. Officials from the Trump administration have since tried to cast themselves as promoting transparency in the case. Last month, they lodged a request to unseal grand jury transcripts - which was denied - and Maxwell was last week interviewed by Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche. Epstein survivor's family criticises move Maxwell's move to a lower security facility has been criticised by the family of Epstein abuse survivor Virginia Giuffre, who died in April, and accusers Annie and Maria Farmer. They said in a statement: "It is with horror and outrage that we object to the preferential treatment convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has received. "Ghislaine Maxwell is a sexual predator who physically assaulted minor children on multiple occasions, and she should never be shown any leniency. "Yet, without any notification to the Maxwell victims, the government overnight has moved Maxwell to a minimum security luxury prison in Texas."

Do you have more points on your driving licence than your neighbours? Find out with our penalty postcode search tool
Halifax, Huddersfield and Plymouth have the highest concentration of motorists with points on their driving licences, according to new analysis. Around one in ten motorists in these major towns and city have at least one penalty point on their record - and the average is four points per licence holder. This is based on the latest driver records held by the DLVA's database, which was last published in May. Want to know how many of your neighbours and drivers living in the same postcode area as you have points? And, just as importantly, if you have more or less than them? The Daily Mail has built a new search tool that will give you all the answers. To use our interactive feature below, simply enter your postcode and the number of points you have on your driving licence currently. It will then tell you if you have more or less than the average motorist in the town or city where you live. It also provides information about the number of licence holders, how many have at least one point, and the total points accrued by all motorists in the region. The new analysis of DVLA data has been conducted by number plate dealer, Regtransfers. It found that some regions across Britain are home to motorists with a proportionally higher count of driving offences. In total, Britons currently have 12 million active penalty points, as of May 2025. The national average number of points per driver with endorsements is four. According to the figures, Halifax tops the table with more than one in 10 licences registered in the area (10.1 per cent) having one or more penalty points. This means that every tenth driver on Halifax's roads likely has a recent history of offences. Endorsements stay on your driving record for four or 11 years depending on the offence. This can start from either the date you're convicted or the date of your offence. Huddersfield, Plymouth and Truro are the locations next on the list with the highest share of drivers with at least one point on their licence. Around nine in 10 registered licence holders have one. Again, the average number of points held per driver is four. In terms of regions where drivers have the most points, drivers in Oxford have an average of five per motorist. This is the highest in the UK and closest to the six-point disqualification threshold for new drivers (those who have only held licences for two years). For drivers who have had their licence for more than 24 months, an automatic ban only occurs when they've accrued 12 or more points at one time. Oxford does not feature in the top 10 list of areas with the highest proportion of drivers carrying existing offences.

The capital has highest number of licences with endorsements for one area in the UK - more than triple the next highest city (Birmingham with 356,974 points) and over 14 per cent of the country's total number of penalty points. On a per capita basis, London also tops the table with 212 penalty points per 1,000 licences - double the national town average. Mark Trimbee, chief executive of Regtransfers, said: 'When you look at the numbers, you realise just how many people are carrying penalty points on their licence. 'It's easy to assume poor driving habits are confined to big cities or motorways, but the data tells a different story, and it's interesting to see Halifax, Huddersfield and Plymouth at the top of our data.' He does, however, acknowledge something important about the statistics being shown. 'You might look at the data and believe that higher points in particular regions means it's a 'hotspot' of bad activity - but that's not necessarily the case,' Mark explains. 'Points can also be issued anywhere in the UK - somewhere other than a person's registered address, for instance. 'What this kind of data does help shine a light on, perhaps, are the areas where driving education - and good driving habits - might be falling short.'
