Raskin demands documents on Maxwell prison transfer, interview with Blanche
House Judiciary Democrats are launching a probe into the transfer of Ghislaine Maxwell to a lower security prison, arguing the move creates “the strong appearance that it is attempting to cover up the full extent of the relationship between President Trump and Mr. Epstein.”
Maxwell, a close associate of convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, met with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche last month and sat for hours of questions about the actions that led to her conviction on child sex trafficking charges.
Shortly thereafter, she was transferred out of a Tallahassee, Fla., facility to another prison in Texas.
Rep. Jamie Raskin (Md.), the top Democrat on the Judiciary panel, said the new, lower security prison has “greater freedom for inmates” and “prior to this extraordinary transfer, [was] categorically off limits to sex offenders.”
