Ghislaine Maxwell’s interview with the Justice Department has been released – and there are jaw-dropping details galore.
Among the extensive records released on Friday, Maxwell, who is serving a 20-year sentence for recruiting young girls for Epstein, provided no damaging information regarding prominent figures, including Donald Trump.
‘The president was never inappropriate with anybody. During all my time with him, he was a gentleman through and through,’ asserted the criminal, seemingly hoping for a presidential pardon.
She also denied the existence of a so-called ‘client list’ and insisted Bill Clinton had never visited Epstein’s ‘pedophile island’.
However, she revealed details about her relationship with Epstein, including his erectile dysfunction and her own sexual dysfunction, which she claims affected their sex life.
The transcripts from the lengthy interview were made public the same day the Justice Department submitted thousands of pages of documents concerning the late sex offender to Congress.
During the interview on July 24 and 25, Maxwell told Blanche she does not believe Epstein committed suicide in his Manhattan jail cell in August 2019 but suggested she leans towards the theory of murder.
‘I do not believe he died by suicide, no,’ she said. ‘If it is indeed murder, I believe it was an internal situation.’

Maxwell says she does not think that Epstein committed suicide and also that she is not aware of some ‘client list’
She stated she was unaware of who might have killed him but speculated it was probably another inmate, contradicting claims that his death was orchestrated to prevent blackmail.
‘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,’ she said.
‘That’s about the going rate for a hit with a lock today.’
Maxwell has previously stated that she believes her former associate was murdered.
She also revealed she has no knowledge of a so-called ‘client list’ of high-profile individuals Epstein had damaging information on – which he could then use to blackmail them.
‘There is no list,’ Maxwell insisted to Blanche in her nine hours of interviews last month.
‘The genesis of that story, I can actually trace for you from its absolute inception.’
The convicted sex offender insisted: ‘This is one man. He’s not some… they’ve made him into this. He’s not that interesting. He’s a disgusting guy who did terrible things to young kids.’
In her July sit-down, Maxwell told investigators she may have first met Trump in 1990 through her late father Robert Maxwell, who ‘liked him very much’ and was fond of his first wife Ivana Trump because of her Czech background.
When pressed about allegations she recruited a Mar-a-Lago employee to meet Epstein, Maxwell claimed she couldn’t remember but admitted it was ‘not impossible’ since she frequently approached spa workers.

Maxwell’s testimony acknowledges that her father, Robert Maxwell, had a background in intelligence during World War II as a British officer, and she believes he continued to help people in intelligence contexts, though he was not formally employed by an agency.
She insists her father and Epstein never met.
Maxwell is currently serving 20 years behind bars for her 2021 conviction on sex trafficking charges related to helping Epstein abuse teenage girls, though she has filed an appeal to the Supreme Court.
Her lawyers claim Maxwell was covered under a 2007 plea deal that Epstein reached in his Florida sex offender case.
Blanche interviewed Maxwell on July 24 and 25 for a combined nine hours at the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Tallahassee, Florida.
At the time of the interviews she was serving her sentence at the low-security Federal Correctional Institution, Tallahassee. Just days after her sit-down, Maxwell was transferred to minimum-security Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas.
While Maxwell made a lot of important revelations about her longtime boyfriend and associate that could help shed light on the sex trafficking ring, she also divulged some highly personal information.
For example, Maxwell claimed she rarely had sex with Epstein because he suffered from a heart condition ‘which meant that he didn’t have intercourse a lot’.
She added that it ‘suited her fine’ because she also had a medical condition that also ‘precludes me having a lot of intercourse.’

Throughout the interview, Maxwell tried to paint herself as somewhat subservient to Epstein – a victim of romantic who later learned her long-term partner didn’t love her.
She told the DOJ how she met Epstein in 1991 when she was going through a ‘bad break-up’ with her long-term boyfriend.
She was visiting New York and her friend offered to set her up on a date.
‘He’s been dating my sister. You’ll love him. He’s looking for a wife,’ she recalled her friend saying.
Maxwell lamented that she was ‘edging towards 30’ at the time.
‘I don’t need to tell you guys. That’s a very important moment or a girl to, like, think about important things,’ she said.
She met Epstein for the first time at his offices on Madison Garden.
The ‘most memorable’ thing about that meeting was that Epstein had giant ketchup stain on his tie, she recalled.

Maxwell found Epstein ‘very engaging and that was that.’
They became friends, then had a one-night stand in 1992 and didn’t sleep together again for nine months, she said.
After that they got into a years-long relationship.
But, by 1999, Maxwell said their relationship was foundering.
‘Two reasons,’ she said. ‘We were never sleeping together again. So we stopped having sexual relations in 1999. Not full sex.’
Epstein, she claimed, had other girlfriends.
Then, on 9/11, she said she knew it was over.
‘I definitively knew that it was over after 9/11, actually, because we were both in New York,’ she said.
‘It was a scary time if you were in New 10 York. You didn’t know, I didn’t know, nobody knew what was going on. And he was in 71st Street and I was in 65th Street, my house. And he wouldn’t see me at all.’

She added: ‘If you’re not going to be there for someone in 9/11, you’re never going to be there. So for me, that was the line’s end.’
During the hours-long interviews, Maxwell was also asked about several high-profile individuals and their potential connections to both her and Epstein.
She claimed that Prince Andrew often stayed at Epstein’s properties, describing him as someone who ‘relished Jeffrey’s hospitality’.
And she said that Epstein was ‘proud to flaunt royal connections,’ making Andrew a useful social asset.
At one point, she was asked about disgraced former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo, who resigned in shame in 2021 amid a string of sexual harassment allegations.
Maxwell confirmed she knew Cuomo and his TV show host brother Chris Cuomo ‘socially’ but ‘only because he was married to Kerry [Kennedy]’.
When asked if Epstein knew Andrew or Chris Cuomo or Kerry Kennedy – or if they ever flew on Epstein’s plane or visited him in Palm Beach or on his Caribbean island – she said: ‘I don’t think so.’

Maxwell also confirmed she knew Trump’s former ‘First Buddy’ Elon Musk, having first met him at an exclusive birthday party for Google cofounder Sergey Brin.
She later met up with Musk at the Oscars.
While Musk was not present for those meetings, Maxwell said she believes Epstein and the Tesla CEO did know each other.
Maxwell described Victoria’s Secret founder Lex Wexner as Jeffrey Epstein’s ‘closest friend’, from the time they first met.
During her two days with Blanche, she also addressed financial matters.
Maxwell disputed that over $30 million Epstein sent to her was simply for personal gain, citing some funds tied to a helicopter she never owned.
She also admitted to having banking licenses and day-trading in the 1990s, where she made significant profits, including millions from Epstein-financed Palm Beach real estate flips.
