Ghislaine Maxwell Granted Limited Immunity During Questioning, Fueling Speculation About Trump Potential Pardon

In a surprising move, the Justice Department has granted convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell limited immunity during a nine-hour questioning session, according to reports from ABC News and other outlets. The immunity agreement allows Maxwell, a former associate and girlfriend of the late Jeffrey Epstein, to answer questions without fear of her responses being used against her in future proceedings.

The news of Maxwell’s limited immunity has sparked concerns about the possibility of a pardon from President Trump, who has been known to grant clemency to high-profile figures in the past. Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for conspiring with Epstein and sex trafficking minors, and a pardon would effectively commute her sentence and allow her to avoid further punishment.

When asked about the possibility of pardoning Maxwell on Friday, Trump responded coyly, stating: “I’m allowed to do it, but it’s something I haven’t thought about.” While Trump’s comment does not necessarily indicate that a pardon is imminent, it has fueled speculation about the potential for Maxwell to receive clemency.

The episode has sparked renewed criticism of the Justice Department’s handling of the Epstein case and the treatment of Maxwell, who has been accused of playing a key role in facilitating Epstein’s sex trafficking ring.

As the drama thickens, eyes are glued to the unfolding spectacle, eager to see if Maxwell will snag a pardon or some other lifeline, all in a desperate bid to shield Trump from the backlash over his refusal to unveil Epstein’s files.
