The Department of Justice is interviewing Maxwell, who has drawn renewed attention amid questions about Epstein's case.
The request from the justice department to interview Ghislaine Maxwell is just the latest attempt from the Trump administration to satisfy the loud clamour for more information about the Jeffrey Epstein case that is coming from the president’s own supporters.
Trump has repeatedly denied prior knowledge of Epstein’s crimes and claimed he cut off their relationship long ago. For a president skilled at manipulating the media and controlling the Republican Party, it has been the most challenging test of his ability to shift the conversation in his second term.
The Department of Justice said Tuesday it has reached out to Jeffrey Epstein’s former associate Ghislaine Maxwell for a meeting amid backlash over the administration’s handling of files related to Epstein.
A top US Justice Department official spent hours on Thursday grilling Ghislaine Maxwell, the imprisoned accomplice of sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, as President Donald Trump struggles to tamp down a furor over his handling of the explosive case.
Trump dismisses renewed Epstein scrutiny as a political hoax by Democrats, while bipartisan calls for transparency intensify.
Trump is among other prominent figures named in the previously unsealed documents. He was mentioned in a 2016 deposition from Johanna Sjoberg, one of Epstein’s victims, who said the disgraced financier’s plane made an impromptu stop in Atlantic City in the 2000s. Sjoberg said “no” when asked if she’d given Trump a massage.
