Todd Blanche, the second-highest ranking official at the Justice Department, said Tuesday that he plans to meet with Ghislaine Maxwell “in the coming days” about the case involving convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.
“Justice demands courage. For the first time, the Department of Justice is reaching out to Ghislaine Maxwell to ask: what do you know?” Blanche wrote on social media. He added that he contacted Maxwell’s lawyers at the direction of Attorney General Pam Bondi. “I intend to meet with her soon. No one is above the law — and no lead is off-limits,” Blanche wrote.
On Capitol Hill, a subcommittee of the House Oversight and Reform Committee approved a motion from GOP Rep. Tim Burchett of Tennessee that directs the committee’s chairman to subpoena Maxwell to appear for a deposition, a signal of lawmakers’ interest in speaking to Epstein’s former partner.
