Reference News Network July 26 report. According to Reuters on July 25, U.S. President Trump said on July 25 that he had never considered pardoning Ghislaine Maxwell or reducing her sentence. Maxwell is a central figure in the "Jeffrey Epstein sexual abuse case," which has recently sparked political controversy, bringing her back into the spotlight.
When asked if he might pardon Maxwell, Trump told reporters, "This is something I have never considered. I have the right to do so, but I really haven't thought about it."
Maxwell was sentenced to 20 years in prison in 2021 for assisting Epstein in sexually abusing underage girls and is currently serving her sentence at a federal prison in Tallahassee, Florida. She is currently appealing the verdict.
U.S. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche said he met with Maxwell in Florida on the 24th and planned to meet again on the 25th. Previously, he had contacted Maxwell's lawyer to find out whether she had information about individuals who committed crimes against victims. Blanche was once Trump's personal lawyer.
When asked about Blanche's meeting with Maxwell, Trump said he was not aware of the details, only knowing that the meeting was ongoing.
But he then hinted that other well-known people connected to Epstein should also be investigated.
Trump said, "They don't talk about those people, they only talk about me. I have nothing to do with that guy." (Translated by Wang Dongdong)
