The Justice Department said in a court filing today that most grand jury material related to Ghislaine Maxwell's 2020 indictment is already public, casting doubt on whether its release will offer new revelations. The DOJ noted that testimony from law enforcement officials was later corroborated during Maxwell's public trial in 2021.
President Donald Trump has instructed Attorney General Pam Bondi to seek the release of grand jury transcripts involving both Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein. The DOJ cited ongoing public interest in requesting judicial authorization to unseal the documents, with key victim and witness names redacted.

Maxwell, convicted in 2022 for sex trafficking minors, was recently moved to a lower-security prison in Texas. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche met with her last month to explore potential leads on other criminal figures, though no details have been disclosed.
Meanwhile, the House Oversight Committee has issued a subpoena for Epstein records. Democrats argue Trump must be held accountable for delaying their release.
