Ghislaine Maxwell has spoken about her connection to Elon Musk in a new interview with the Department of Justice.
Maxwell, who remains behind bars after being found guilty of child sex trafficking in connection with the disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein in 2021, recently sat down with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche.
Speaking over two days to Blanche at FCI Tallahassee low security women's prison in Florida, she spoke about multiple high-profile people, including Musk.
When asked about the tech billionaire, she said she met Musk in either 2010 or 2011 at a birthday party.

She explained: "We were — or a bunch of us, I don't even remember how many we were, but not many of us.
"[We] went to another friend's island... Epstein, he was not there... And we were there together for, I want to say, three or four days, something like that in my memory. And Mr. Musk was present for that."
Maxwell also spoke about whether she had met Kimbal Musk, Musk's brother, to which she responded: "I don't know if I've ever met him. I know that he has a brother, and I don't think I met him."
"And do you know whether Mr. Epstein knew Mr. Musk?" Blanche asked.
To which she responded: "I believe they did. And the only reason I say that is not from my memory, but because I saw — I think I saw — my memory is that in discovery, they were communicating on email."
Maxwell clarified she did not know that information personally, adding: "I don't — my — like I said, my memory is not — it's not as good as I would like it to be," she said. "And I just want to say that."
UNILAD has reached out to Musk for comment.
Maxwell also spoke about Trump, explaining she never witnessed Trump doing anything inappropriate.
"I never witnessed the president in any inappropriate setting in any way," she said.
"The president was never inappropriate with anybody. In the times that I was with him, he was a gentleman in all respects."
On Friday (August 22) Trump explained there could be 'people in the Epstein files that don't deserve to be there'.
"The DOJ is sending some of the Epstein files over to the House Oversight Committee. Are you in support of them releasing them?" A reporter asked Trump.
The president responded: "I'm in support of keeping it open. Innocent people shouldn't be hurt.
"You have a lot of people that could be mentioned in those files that don't deserve to be because he knew everybody in Palm Beach.
"I have said to Pam and everybody else, give them everything you can give them, because it's a Democrat hoax, the whole Epstein thing is a Democrat hoax."
The Trump administration has been facing mounting pressure in recent weeks to release the so-called Epstein files of the late convicted pedophile, with theories that they contain an alleged 'client list' of the rich, famous, and powerful.
It's been more than five months since Attorney General Pam Bondi said the files were sitting on her desk and waiting to be released, though the Department of Justice announced shortly afterwards that it would not release any further files related to the case. The DOJ added that no such 'client list' exists.
However, the Trump administration made a U-turn on the matter, announcing that all the FBI files, including the grand jury testimony, will be released.
