Convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwells legal team has suggested she may seek a pardon as the Trump administration tries to mitigate the ongoing crisis surrounding Jeffrey Epstein.
After meeting for a second day with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, Maxwells lawyer David Markus told reporters that while they hadnt spoken to the administration about a pardon yet, the president this morning said he has the power to grant one.
We hope he exercises that power in the right and just way, he added.
He also told reporters that his client spoke with Blanche about 100 different people related to the case.

(19,924 posts)Remember his "defense" after raping E Jean Carroll? He said she wasn't hot enough and he only had sex with supermodels.
So, he's known since May that he's in the files, maybe well before that, and the rat has looked at every possible escape hatch. The MAGAts aren't on board. He wants to make this go away. So, a public statement from Maxwell that "exonerates" him....although God knows why we'd believe her...is the escape hatch he's chosen.

(15,452 posts)Victim! They're going to brainwash the magats into believing that she was just as much a victim as the girls she raped.
This is paving the way for the quid pro quo silence about Trump for the pardon. Maybe she'll even name a few Dems to sweeten the pot.

(19,924 posts)During the trial, and shortly afterwards. I stopped reading any Maxwell-related garbage right after they closed the cell door. It was mostly complaining about the lack of posh "conditions" in prison.
But she really micro-managed what these LITTLE GIRLS did for Jeffy. Gave them instructions on "how he liked to have his feet rubbed."

Kate testified she first met Maxwell when she was 17 through her older boyfriend while on a trip to Paris. Maxwell invited her for tea at her London townhome a few weeks later and told Kate about her philanthropist boyfriend Epstein, who Maxwell thought would help Kate with her aspiring music career.
I understood that her job was to take care of Jeffreys needs, Kate said.
I left there feeling exhilarated, she said. Like somebody wanted me.

There, Maxwell told her to give Epsteins foot a little squeeze to show him how strong she was despite her small frame, Kate testified. Epstein approved of the foot massage and also had her massage his shoulders.
