Ghislaine Maxwell has shock answer when asked if she thinks Jeffrey Epstein died by suicide

Ghislaine Maxwell, the convicted accomplice of Jeffrey Epstein, issued a very telling statement on whether she believed the sex offender took his own life in 2019.

In 2022, Maxwell, now 63, was sentenced to 20 years in jail for her role in a scheme to sexually exploit and abuse multiple minor girls with Epstein over the course of a decade.

The former British socialite was previously found guilty in December 2021 of conspiracy to entice minors to travel to engage in illegal sex acts, conspiracy to transport minors to participate in illegal sex acts, transporting a minor to participate in illegal sex acts, sex trafficking conspiracy, and sex trafficking of a minor.

Maxwell, who is in the custody of the Bureau of Prisons at the Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Bryan, Texas, recently spoke with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche about Epstein and the individuals he interacted with, including US President Donald Trump.

The conversation transcripts, spanning over 300 pages, have recently been released by the Justice Department.

Ghislaine Maxwell statement on if Epstein died by suicide

The Blanche-Maxwell interview sees the latter opening up about whether she believed her former partner Epstein killed himself on August 10, 2019.

Despite a recently released memo stating the DOJ and FBI failed to find any evidence that he was murdered, some remain convinced that the disgraced American financier did not take his own life at the Metropolitan Correctional Center in New York City.

When asked her opinion, Maxwell told Blanche: “I do not believe he died by suicide, no.”

She also said she didn’t know who would have killed him or whether the act had been committed to ‘keep him quiet’.

“I do not have any reason to believe that,” she said. “And I also think it's ludicrous, because if that...I also happen to think if that is what they wanted, they would've had plenty of opportunity when he wasn't in jail.

“And if they were worried about blackmail or anything from him, he would've been a very easy target.”

Ghislaine Maxwell calls Donald Trump a ‘gentleman in all respects’

Maxwell also touched on rumors regarding Trump’s relationship with the pedophile, claiming she’d never seen the Republican do anything inappropriate.

Adding the 79-year-old was a ‘gentleman in all respects’, the incarcerated criminal said: “I admire his extraordinary achievement in becoming the President now.”

Explaining that she first met him in 1990, Maxwell said her father, British publishing magnate Robert Maxwell, was ‘friendly with him and liked him very much,’ and that he was fond of Trump's ex-wife, Ivana Trump, as per CBS News.

She also alleged that Trump and Epstein ‘seemed friendly’ but she ‘only ever saw them in social settings’, not private meetings.

Trump blasts MAGA critics after asking them to ‘move on’ from Epstein files

Maxwell’s character study of Trump comes just weeks after the US President told his MAGA supporters to move on from Epstein.

Lashing out at people who criticized him after the heavily redacted ‘Epstein files’ were released and US Attorney General Pam Bondi announced the multi-millionaire did not have a 'client list’, Trump wrote: “[Speaking of Democrats] Also, unlike Republicans, they stick together like glue.”

"Their new SCAM is what we will forever call the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax, and my PAST supporters have bought into this 'bulls**t' hook, line, and sinker.

"They haven’t learned their lesson, and probably never will, even after being conned by the Lunatic Left for 8 long years,” he continued via a Truth Social Post.

"I have had more success in 6 months than perhaps any President in our Country’s history, and all these people want to talk about, with strong prodding by the Fake News and the success starved Dems, is the Jeffrey Epstein Hoax."

"Let these weaklings continue forward and do the Democrats work, don’t even think about talking of our incredible and unprecedented success, because I don’t want their support anymore!

"Thank you for your attention to this matter. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!"
