Jeffrey Epstein co-conspirator Ghislaine Maxwell plans to seek commutation from Trump, whistleblower says

Ghislaine Maxwell, the co-conspirator of the late convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, is in the process of seeking a commutation of her 20-year prison sentence from President Donald Trump, a whistleblower has told House Democrats.

The whistleblower came forward with the information to Democrats on the House Judiciary Committee and also alleges Maxwell is getting preferential treatment in prison.

In a letter to Trump on Monday, House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member Jamie Raskin, D-Md., demanded the administration release information about the commutation application and called on Trump to reject her request.

“You should not grant any form of clemency to this convicted and unrepentant sex offender,” Raskin wrote. “Your Administration should not be providing her with room service, with puppies to play with, with federal law enforcement officials waiting on her every need, or with any special treatment or institutional privilege at all.”

According to the whistleblower, whose identity the committee has not revealed, Maxwell has received what was described as “concierge-style” treatment at the minimum security prison camp that she was transferred to, including customized meals, permission to go to the exercise area after hours, and time to play with a puppy that was being trained by an inmate to become a service dog, among other things.

The whistleblower also claimed that a top official at the prison camp complained he is “sick of having to be Maxwell’s bitch.” ——NBC News
