Judge denies request to unseal transcripts from grand jury that indicted Ghislaine Maxwell
NEW YORK (AP) — Transcripts of the secret grand jury testimony that led to the sex trafficking indictment of Jeffrey Epstein's former girlfriend, Ghislaine Maxwell won't be released, a judge decided Monday. Judge Paul A. Engelmayer said in a written ruling that the government had suggested that the materials could be released publicly 'casually or promiscuously,' which would risk 'unraveling the foundations of secrecy upon which the grand jury is premised' and eroding confidence by persons called to testify before future grand juries, 'And it is no answer to argue that releasing the grand jury materials, because they are redundant of the evidence at Maxwell's trial, would be innocuous. The same could be said for almost any grand jury testimony, by summary witnesses or others, given in support of charges that later proceeded to trial,' he added. Federal prosecutors had asked to unseal the documents, in an effort to calm a whirlpool of suspicions about what the government knows about Epstein, a well-connected financier who died behind bars while awaiting trial on sex trafficking charges. Maxwell, his socialite ex-girlfriend, was later convicted of helping him prey on underage girls. It's unclear how much the transcripts would have revealed since the Justice Department has acknowledged that they contained no testimony from witnesses who were not members of law enforcement. Maxwell recently was interviewed by the Justice Department and was moved from a prison in Florida to a prison camp in Texas. Her attorney says she testified truthfully. Prosecutors have said much of what was discussed behind the grand jury's closed doors ultimately became public at Maxwell's 2021 trial in 2021, in victims' civil lawsuits or in public statements from victims and witnesses. The only grand jury witnesses were law enforcement officers. The decision about the grand jury transcripts doesn't affect thousands of other pages that the government possesses but has declined to release. The Justice Department has said much of the material was court-sealed to protect victims and little of it would have come out if Epstein had gone to trial. Another federal judge still is weighing whether to release the transcripts from the grand jury testimony that led to Epstein's indictment. A federal judge in Florida declined to release grand jury documents from an investigation there in 2005 and 2007. Some Epstein victims supported releasing the grand jury transcripts with some redactions. Other accusers said the debate over the material was causing them anguish. Maxwell, who's appealing her conviction, opposed unsealing the documents. Her lawyers said she hasn't seen them but believed they were full of questionable statements that her defense had no opportunity to challenge. Solve the daily Crossword
