Maxwell is serving 20 years in prison for conspiring with Epstein to sexually abuse minors. Critics are calling on the Trump to release more information.

Donald Trump has been accused of “running scared” over the Jeffrey Epstein case as the Democrats ramp up their demands for the president to release the files tied to the convicted sex offender. The president has been accused of attempting to distract from the Epstein scandal by peddling a conspiracy theory that former President Barack Obama orchestrated the Russia investigation into Trump’s 2016 campaign.

R.I., sent a letter to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche Monday morning seeking a public commitment that the DOJ will not advocate for a pardon or commutation for Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell in exchange for her cooperation.
