Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche is scheduled to meet this afternoon at the U.S. attorney’s office in Tallahassee, Florida, with Ghislaine Maxwell—the convicted sex trafficker and former associate of Jeffrey Epstein.
Maxwell, currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for recruiting and grooming underage girls for Epstein’s abuse network, has become a focal point amid renewed calls for transparency in the Epstein investigation.
The socialite and longtime associate of Epstein was convicted in 2021 on charges including sex trafficking of minors and conspiracy.
Blanche arrived at the federal courthouse in Tallahassee around 9 a.m. ET on July 24, declining to comment when approached by reporters.
WATCH:
Despite extensive investigations into Epstein’s activities, many details—especially about potential “uncharged third parties”—remain sealed, fueling public frustration.
The Trump administration’s handling of Epstein-related files has faced sharp criticism from both MAGA supporters and Democrats. Earlier this month, the DOJ and FBI issued a joint statement asserting that a thorough review found no evidence warranting new investigations into others and stated there is no “client list.”
President Trump has now publicly directed officials to “release all credible evidence,” prompting the meeting with Maxwell.
In a statement posted on X, AG Pam Bondi quoted Blanche saying, “If Ghislaine Maxwell has information about anyone who has committed crimes against victims, the FBI and the DOJ will hear what she has to say.”
A House Oversight Committee subcommittee also voted to subpoena Maxwell on Wednesday.
