Do they really think people are that damn dumb, Maxwell would agree to anything the administration wants her to say to save her skin... she knows what happened to Epstein...https://www.yahoo.com/news/trump-orders-doj-speak-ghislaine-124354051.html?fr=sycsrp_catchall
"Therefore, at the direction of Attorney General Bondi, I have communicated with counsel for Ms Maxwell to determine whether she would be willing to speak with prosecutors from the Department. I anticipate meeting with Ms Maxwell in the coming days.
Maxwells lawyer, who has been trying to meet with the Trump administration and has suggested his client should be freed, has confirmed he is in talks with government officials.
I can confirm that we are in discussions with the government and that Ghislaine will always testify truthfully, David Oscar Markus said.
He added: We are grateful to President Trump for his commitment to uncovering the truth in this case.

Jeffrey Epstein could have paid for help with suicide: Former Gotti pal

When does that happen? he asked. The attorney general never visits jails. Somethings not right there.
Kasman said the facility was totally disgusting worse than Guantanamo Bay.

(1,108 posts)The last thing in the WORLD she would do is implicate Trump under any circumstances. Democrats should NOT want to hear from Maxwell under the auspices of a wholly corrupt Trump DoJ.
Also, do NOT trust Alan Dershowitz. He cares about one thing, that's himself. He wants "all evidence released" for one purpose, which is that he thinks it will show the late Virginia Guiffre (his own accuser, and the single known victim who has made the "Epstein as child pimp to the rich and famous" accusation) to be a liar and an extortionist. Also because he previously represented Epstein, he would not want evidence to come out that says Epstein was doing even WORSE shit than was known before, because that also makes him look bad. He also knows Maxwell will say nothing that will hurt him, she will 100% deny, in effect, everything that Giuffre has said happened WRT trafficking. What he's saying about her being the Rosetta Stone, and "knowing everything" is to burnish her credibility so that when she gets up on the stand and says "none of this supposed trafficking to the rich and powerful ever happened, it was all just Epstein abusing these girls", which is what Dersh wants to hear, it will be more believable.
Nothing good for our side (or for any victims) is going to come of hearing from Maxwell under these circumstances, prompted by this DoJ. The fact that Bondi just fired Maureen Comey only makes me more sure of this. She's in a position to say "Maxwell is full of shit", but now she'll be the "disgruntled, corrupt former prosecutor, daughter of the also-fired and disgraced Jim Comey!" whenever Trump refers to her. And the complicit M$M will get the message and downplay or ignore anything she has to say.

(544 posts)He probably killed Epstein, and would likely kill her. The fact that she is alive probably means she has set up a way to deliver evidence to news services if she so much as stubs her toe.

(1,108 posts)Regardless, the most important fact is that the only chance in hell she has of getting out of jail is by saying exactly what Trump wants her to say publicly. Which happens to also provide her with the best opportunity to not get whacked. She may not 'trust him' but AFAICT that doesn't change what her 'best play' is in this situation. Point being there is a 0% chance that anything she will say (out loud) will be something that could offend Trump. She'll be playing to an audience of 1
