As Expected Ghislaine Maxwell Pleads The Fifth To All Questions Asked By Congress (2/9/26)

Ghislaine Maxwell appeared for a congressional deposition today and immediately invoked her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination, refusing to answer substantive questions from lawmakers. According to members of Congress, Maxwell delivered a brief, prepared statement at the outset and then systematically declined to respond to questions about Jeffrey Epstein’s operations, potential co-conspirators, powerful associates, or her own role in facilitating abuse. The deposition, conducted as part of Congress’s oversight inquiry into the Epstein case, was expected by many to yield insight into long-unanswered questions, but instead unfolded as a near-total assertion of constitutional silence.


By pleading the Fifth across the board, Maxwell effectively shut down Congress’s ability to extract testimony while insulating herself from potential legal exposure tied to ongoing appeals and post-conviction litigation. Lawmakers publicly acknowledged that her refusal to testify was legally permissible but deeply frustrating, particularly given her central role in Epstein’s criminal enterprise and the public interest in full disclosure. The outcome reinforced a familiar pattern in the Epstein saga: key insiders appearing under oath, yet declining to provide answers, leaving Congress with another formal record of silence rather than clarity about how Epstein’s network operated and who enabled it.
