After two days of questioning led by deputy attorney general Todd Blanche, it was revealed that Ghislaine Maxwell, the aide of Jeffrey Epstein, answered all questions of the Justice Department and gave information about 100 different people linked to the late pedophile. Maxwell’s lawyer David Oscar said that she was asked about every possible thing. “This was the first opportunity she’s ever been given to answer questions about what happened,” Markus added. “The truth will come out about what happened with Mr. Epstein and she’s the person who’s answering those questions.”
From predator to victim: Major backlash as Trump admin engages with Maxwell
A major backlash started as Trump sent his lawyer to speak to Maxwell as it seems pretty evident now that Trump will pardon Maxwell. Social media users pointed out that the narrative has already changed and Ghislaine who was no less evil than Epstein, according to their victims, is now being portrayed as a victim herself.
Trump says he didn’t consider granting Maxwell pardon
As Trump was asked about whether he would pardon Maxwell, he said he has the right to do that but he did not give it a thought. “It’s something I haven’t thought about. I’m allowed to do it, but I haven’t thought about it.”“I don’t want to talk about that,” he said. In his latest statement on Epstein, Trump said he never went to Epstein’s island but Bill Clinton visited the island 28 times.
Virginia Giuffre once said Maxwell was worse than Epstein
Virginia Giuffre, one of the victims of Epstein’s sex trafficking, who died earlier this year, said Maxwell’s crimes were even worse because she used to gain the girls’ confidence to drag them into the trafficking. Giuffre said Maxwell gained her confidence by promising that she would help her fulfil her dream of becoming a massage therapist if she worked for Epstein.
