Ghislaine Maxwell given 'limited' immunity to answer questions from DOJ: reports

Disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein's associate Ghislaine Maxwell was given "limited" immunity to answer questions from the Department of Justice about sex trafficking, according to reports.

Multiple news outlets with anonymous sources have reported that Maxwell got limited immunity, according to Axios. 

Top Department of Justice officials on Friday concluded their second interview with Maxwell. She is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence for sex-trafficking and other charges.

The interviews come amid a national public uproar, which started with President Donald Trump's MAGA base, about his Justice Department effectively closing campaign-promised investigations into Epstein, a wealthy financier and convicted sex-offender who died in a New York City jail awaiting trial on additional charges related to sex offenses. 

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche first met with Maxwell in Tallahassee, Fla., on Thursday where she is serving her sentence.

When asked if he would consider pardoning Maxwell, Trump said he hadn't given it thought. 

“It’s something I haven’t thought about it," Trump told reporters before departing the White House for Scotland. "I’m allowed to do it, but it’s something I have not thought about."
