Jeffrey Epstein’s former attorney has proposed that the only convicted associate of the sex-trafficking financier should receive immunity from further legal action if she truthfully testifies before Congress.

Ghislaine Maxwell, 63, is the sole associate to face criminal or civil accountability in relation to the claims against Epstein. In 2016, she participated in a deposition during a civil case, during which she claimed she did not remember nearly 24 flights on Epstein’s private jet with a minor, Virginia Giuffre, who later became the most vocal accuser of the trafficking pair. Epstein’s flight records indicated that Giuffre and Maxwell were on the plane together 23 times before Giuffre was 18, as previously revealed by Fox News Digital.

Giuffre died of suicide earlier this year.

“[Maxwell] knows everything,” Alan Dershowitz, a former attorney for Epstein, told Fox News’ Shannon Bream on “Fox News Sunday.” “She is the Rosetta Stone.”

“As long as there’s nothing redacted about the accuser’s lack of credibility, then the public has the right to make its own decision,” he said. “Just because somebody’s name is mentioned doesn’t really mean very much.”

Under federal law, use of immunity is a legal protection that prevents a witness’ testimony or any evidence drawn from it from being used to prosecute them criminally, so long as they tell the truth.

In 2021, more than two years after Epstein’s death in custody while awaiting his own trial, Maxwell was convicted of helping him traffic teen girls. She received a 20-year sentence and has appealed her case to the U.S. Supreme Court.

“She arranged every single trip with everybody,” Dershowitz said. “She knows everything.”
