Serving a 20-year sentence in a minimum-security federal prison camp in Texas, Ghislaine Maxwell has made startling assertions in a July 2025 interview with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, challenging long-held beliefs about Jeffrey Epstein’s sex trafficking empire.
In the released transcript, Maxwell vehemently denied knowledge of any infamous “client list,” stating, “There is no list that I am aware of.” This directly contradicts years of public speculation and conspiracy theories suggesting Epstein maintained a ledger of high-profile individuals who participated in or benefited from his abuse of underage girls.
Maxwell also claimed she never witnessed inappropriate behavior by powerful figures linked to Epstein, including former President Donald Trump and Bill Clinton. She insisted she saw no evidence of wrongdoing involving them, despite flight logs and photos placing them in Epstein’s orbit. Regarding Trump, she praised his achievements and recalled no compromising situations.
On Epstein’s 2019 death—officially ruled a suicide—Maxwell expressed doubt, saying she did not believe it was self-inflicted but offered no evidence of murder or a cover-up to silence him. These remarks fuel ongoing debates, especially as no other major figures have faced charges beyond her conviction.
Victims’ advocates and legal experts dismiss her statements as self-serving, noting Maxwell’s history of perjury and her potential motivation for seeking clemency or a reduced sentence. Her post-interview transfer to a lower-security facility and recent habeas petition citing “new evidence” of trial irregularities have intensified scrutiny.
As partial Epstein file releases continue into 2026, Maxwell’s prison-wall declarations—denying a broader network while upholding her innocence—stand in stark contrast to trial evidence, victim testimonies, and investigative findings, deepening the scandal’s unresolved mysteries.
