Update: Date: 27 min ago Title: Here's what we know about Epstein's accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell Content: British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell was the ex-girlfriend-turned social companion of Jeffrey Epstein. Maxwell was sentenced in 2022 to 20 years in federal prison for carrying out a years-long scheme with Epstein to groom and sexually abuse underage girls. She has attempted to appeal her conviction. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche met with Maxwell yesterday and said he'll interview her again today. The meeting comes after a judge declined to release grand jury documents from the criminal probe into Epstein and amid growing backlash against President Donald Trump and his administration for not releasing more information on the Epstein case. More on Maxwell's relationship with Epstein: Update: Date: 27 min ago Title: Trump's deputy attorney general says he will meet with Ghislaine Maxwell again today Content: Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said he would continue his interview with Ghislaine Maxwell today after they met for hours in Florida yesterday. 'Productive day today with the Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche and Ghislaine Maxwell,' her lawyer David Markus said of the meeting. 'He took a full day and asked a lot of questions.' The former Epstein associate answered every question posed to her during the meeting, according to her lawyer. 'She never invoked a privilege. She never declined to answer. She answered all the questions truthfully, honestly and to the best of her ability,' Markus said. He wouldn't comment on the substance of the meeting 'for obvious reasons,' he added. Blanche said the Justice Department 'will share additional information about what we learned at the appropriate time,' in a post on X. Blanche's meeting came with the backdrop of fierce public backlash, including from members of President Donald Trump's base, over the administration's perceived lack of transparency surrounding documents related to Epstein's case.
