The DOJ’s recent release of its interview with convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell has revealed many things.
The most significant finding was that Maxwell admitted President Trump did not participate in any nefarious acts with Jeffrey Epstein.
Maxwell stated, “I never witnessed the president in any inappropriate setting in any way.”
She continued to add that he was a “gentleman.”
Now, as news outlets have had more time to review the DOJ’s interview with Maxwell, it was discovered that Maxwell revealed how she believes Epstein died.
The Daily Caller reported more on Maxwell’s thoughts on her former partner’s death:
Ghislaine Maxwell does not believe Jeffrey Epstein committed suicide, according to her Department of Justice (DOJ) interview.
Maxwell told Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche she doesn’t believe anybody outside the prison directed his murder, suggesting instead his death resulted from Bureau of Prisons (BOP) mismanagement.
“In prison, where I am, they will kill you or they will pay — somebody can pay a prisoner to kill you for $25 worth of commissary,” Maxwell said. “That’s about the going rate for a hit with a lock today.”
Blanche asked if there was anybody “who wanted him [Epstein] dead so badly” that they would have “caused him to be killed on the inside.”
“I think that’s — I don’t see that,” Maxwell replied. “I think, is it possible? Of course it’s possible. But I don’t know of any reason why, and I don’t believe in the blackmail or in any of this, I don’t think Epstein had a hit on like that.”
“If it is indeed murder, I believe it was an internal situation,” she continued.
Maxwell didn’t believe anybody killed Epstein to silence him, stating that was “just part of the story that’s been created that started back in 2008, ’09.”
“I also think it’s ludicrous, because if that — I also happen to think if that is what they wanted, they would’ve had plenty of opportunity when he wasn’t in jail,” she continued. “And if they were worried about blackmail or anything from him, he would’ve been a very easy target.”
The DOJ released the full interview with Maxwell, which Blanche conducted on July 24 and July 25, on its website Friday.
Epstein’s brother hired a forensic pathologist in 2019 who disputed the official autopsy, claiming “the evidence points to homicide rather than suicide,” according to The New York Times.
Video evidence from the Special Housing Unit (SHU) where Epstein’s cell was located is only available from one camera due to a malfunction with the recording system, according to a June 2023 DOJ Inspector General’s report. Two jail guards working the night Epstein died were also charged in 2020 for stating in records they made rounds to check on inmates when they had not.

But in the same breath she claims there was no list, no blackmail, no powerful enemies at all.

In the last week, the Trump administration has been more transparent in handling the Epstein files.
The Hill reported that the DOJ on Friday released the first batch of the Epstein files to the House Oversight Committee:
The Department of Justice (DOJ) turned over the first batch of documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee on Friday, in response to a subpoena from the panel seeking the full Epstein files.
Separately, the DOJ on Friday publicly released a transcript and audio of the interview Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche conducted last month with Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell. Blanche interviewed Maxwell in course-correction following public uproar over an initial decision from the DOJ and FBI to not release any additional information about the Epstein matter.
“The House Oversight Committee has received the Department of Justice’s first production of Epstein records pursuant to Chairman James Comer’s subpoena. The production contains thousands of pages of documents,” A House GOP Oversight Committee spokesperson said in a statement.
The DOJ included the interview with Maxwell in the batch of documents released to the Oversight panel in addition to releasing it publicly.In the interview, Maxwell — who is seeking a pardon or commutation of her sex trafficking conviction from President Trump — told the Justice Department she “never saw” Trump “in any inappropriate setting.”
