Maxwell appeared virtually for a closed-door deposition from the Texas prison where she is serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking.

Republican House Oversight Committee chairman James Comer said that “as expected”, Maxwell pleaded the Fifth Amendment, invoking her right to remain silent.

“This is obviously very disappointing,” he said. “We had many questions to ask about the crimes she and Epstein committed, as well as questions about potential co-conspirators.”

    Trump got her moved to minimum-security, so they could certainly move her back to a more jail-y jail.

        Trump is running the show. DOJ has his arm up their ass. He can keep her in the cushy prison where she gets whatever she wants or put her in federal prison and have her killed just like her homie.

          Right. The only people who could do anything to her won’t because the cheeto in charge won’t let them. All congress can do is be angry about it.
