A senior official of the United States Ministry of Justice will question, this Thursday, July 24, the former partner and accomplice of the sexual offender Jeffrey Epstein in prison where he is jailed in Florida, said the US media.
“For the first time, the Ministry of Justice goes to Ghislaine Maxwell to ask: What do you know?” He had previously written in the week of Todd Blanche.
The number two of the Ministry will move to Tallahassee, capital of Florida, to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell, sources close to the file in ABC said. The former partner and collaborator of Jeffrey Epstein was sentenced in 2022 to 20 years in prison for sex trafficking, accused of having recruited young minor girls between 1994 and 2004 for Epstein to exploit them sexually.
Epstein’s issue took an explosive political turn at the beginning of last July. Donald Trump has always said that he was going to reveal the contours of the case, but the US government assured that there was no evidence of the existence of a secret list of clients of this rich financial, accused of sexual trafficking in 2019. Jeffrey Epstein had been found dead in his cell a few weeks later, before his trial.
Donald Trump also in the heart of the storm
The Administration’s announcement has caused Donald Trump to get angry. Some of their supporters have been asking for years for the publication of documents allegedly hidden by the Government; Documents that would contain revelations on leading personalities.
“If Ghislaine Maxwell has information about anyone who has committed crimes or crimes about the victims, the FBI and the Ministry of Justice will listen to what he has to say,” said Tuesday Blanche, who is also a former personal lawyer of Donald Trump.
The US president was about the rich financial for years, evolving in the same circles as him. The resurgence of the case ashamed and struggles to extinguish the dispute from its own camp. The House of Representatives was paralyzed this week for the attempt of a chosen republican official chosen, supported by the Democrats, to force a vote on a resolution that asks for the publication of judicial documents on the fallen financial.
The Republican leader of the lower house, Mike Johnson, made sure to block this vote, saying that a publication of these documents would endanger the victims of the crimes attributed to Jeffrey Epstein. Given this paralysis, Republican officials decided to send elected vacation officials on Wednesday throughout the month of August, one day earlier than expected.
