GHISLAINE MAXWELL READY TO SPILL THE BEANS
Jeffrey Epstein’s confidant and co-accused Ghislaine Maxwell has instructed her attorneys that she’s willing to testify before Congress in the United States.
But her attorneys have added a list of terms and conditions along with specific demands.
Epstein, who was found guilty, was murdered while in prison, but Maxwell, who is also serving time after being found guilty. She is still in prison.
She is currently in talks to appeal her conviction to the Supreme Court.
Maxwell’s attorneys have sent a letter to Congress, saying Maxwell is willing to cooperate with the subpoena that was delivered to her “if a fair and safe path forward can be established”.
The letter states: “Compounding these concerns are public comments from members of Congress that appear to have prejudged Ms. Maxwell’s credibility without even listening to what she has to say or evaluating the extensive documentation that corroborates it”.
CNN reports that the conditions include:
A grant of formal immunity.
The interview can’t happen at the correctional facility where she’s serving her sentence.
“To prepare adequately for any congressional deposition—and to ensure accuracy and fairness—we would require the Committee’s questions in advance….Surprise questioning would be both inappropriate and unproductive.”
The interview would be scheduled “only after the resolution of her Supreme Court petition and her forthcoming habeas petition.”
The Congress is expected to share its decision soon.
