All Questions, No Answers: Ghislaine Maxwell And Her Deposition Before Congress

Today, convicted sex-trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell is scheduled to sit for a deposition before the U.S. House Oversight and Government Reform Committee as part of Congress’s ongoing investigation into the crimes of Jeffrey Epstein and his network. Lawmakers have arranged for Maxwell to appear—likely by videolink from prison—to answer questions about her role in Epstein’s operations, her connections with powerful individuals, and related matters that have come to light after the release of millions of federal documents linked to the Epstein case. Committee members, including Representative Ro Khanna, outlined specific questions they intend to ask, spanning alleged co-conspirators, unindicted individuals, and high-profile figures with ties to Epstein’s world.

However, Maxwell’s legal team has made clear she intends to invoke her Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination and will refuse to answer substantive questions during this deposition, effectively pleading the Fifth throughout the session rather than provide testimony. According to lawmakers, Maxwell plans to read a prepared statement at the outset and then decline to respond to individual inquiries—citing her constitutional privilege and concerns about jeopardizing ongoing legal matters, including a habeas petition challenging her conviction. This strategy means Congress may not get direct answers from her today, even as it pursues broader scrutiny of Epstein’s activities and associations.
