U.S. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche is scheduled to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell in Florida on Thursday. This meeting is set just a day after a Congressional committee decided to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein’s associate for further testimony regarding his history of sex crimes.
The development arises as Maxwell is reportedly gathering fresh evidence related to alleged government misconduct from her 2021 trial, which she plans to present to the Department of Justice (DOJ). This information was confirmed by her brother, Ian Maxwell, to Fox News Digital.
“She intends to present the court with substantial new evidence that was unavailable to the defense during her 2021 trial, which could have significantly influenced the verdict,” Ian Maxwell told The New York Post.
In 2008, Epstein struck a deal with federal prosecutors in a bid to avoid more severe federal charges by pleading guilty to state charges of procuring a person under 18 for prostitution and solicitation of prostitution. One month after his arrest, he was found dead in his New York City jail cell in what was ultimately ruled a suicide.
Earlier this year, Attorney General Pam Bondi told “America Reports” host John Roberts that she was in possession of Epstein’s “client list.”
Maxwell is currently serving out her 20-year sentence for propositioning underage girls for Epstein’s sexual assaults at FCI Tallahassee in Florida. She was convicted of five federal charges, including sex trafficking of a minor.
Maxwell is set to testify in front of Congress on Aug. 11.
The DOJ and Maxwell’s attorney did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
