President Donald Trump danced around questions about the Jeffrey Epstein case Friday morning, including whether he would pardon Ghislaine Maxwell for cooperating with Justice Department officials.
Maxwell, Epstein’s former lover and collaborator, is currently five years into a 20-year prison sentence for her role in the disgraced financier’s crimes. However, she sat for an interview with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche on Friday as the administration seeks to tamp down simmering anger on the Right regarding their handling of the Epstein case. Maxwell is slated to sit for a second interview with Blanche on Friday.
