Ghislaine Maxwell opposes release of Epstein case documents

SUMMARY

Ghislaine Maxwell opposes the US Justice Department's request to unseal grand jury transcripts related to her criminal case. Her lawyers argue that public interest does not justify violating grand jury secrecy while she is still fighting her conviction.

Maxwell is serving a 20-year sentence for aiding Jeffrey Epstein in sex trafficking. They stated,

“Disclosure of grand jury materials at this stage risks irreparably tainting the legal process.”

Her case is currently pending before the US Supreme Court.

Maxwell has also met with Deputy Attorney General and is set to testify before Congress, seeking immunity. Her legal team claims she has not reviewed the grand jury materials.
