Of Course Ghislaine Maxwell Plans To Plead The Fifth If Called In Front Of Congress

Maxwell’s legal team has signalled that she will invoke her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination if she’s required to testify before the House Oversight Committee (or other congressional investigators) without pre-conditions being met. Specifically, her attorneys have said she will refuse to answer questions unless immunity from further prosecution is granted, the questions are provided in advance, her pending appeals (including to the Supreme Court) are resolved, and the setting is acceptable (for example, not in her prison facility). Without those safeguards, the firm position is that she will “plead the Fifth” and not participate.

Because Congress has so far declined to provide the kind of immunity or guarantees Maxwell’s counsel demands, the committee chair (James Comer) has publicly stated that she “won’t answer any questions” and will invoke the Fifth. Thus, barring a change in those conditions, her testimony appears to be off the table and the committee may opt not to expend resources if she will simply refuse to engage.
