Trump on pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell: ‘I’d have to take a look at it’
Trump said he will consult the Department of Justice before deciding on a pardon for Maxwell, whose Supreme Court appeal was denied, leaving pardon as her only release option.
- U.S. President Donald Trump said he would have to 'take a look' at potentially pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted of sex trafficking in connection with Jeffrey Epstein.
- Trump stated that 'a lot of people' had asked him for pardons, referencing Sean 'Diddy' Combs who was recently sentenced for prostitution-related charges.
- Issuing a pardon to Maxwell could carry political risk for Trump, as his supporters and opponents have demanded the release of files from the Justice Department's Epstein probe.
