Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell “vigorously opposes disclosure of the grand jury materials” from her sex trafficking case, her attorney said.

In response to a Department of Justice request to unseal the grand jury materials, Maxwell’s attorneys filed court documents on Tuesday, stating that her client would oppose the move.

“Ghislaine Maxwell has not seen the material and cannot take an informed position. Given that she is actively litigating her case and does not know what is in the grand jury record, she has no choice but to respectfully oppose the government’s motion to unseal it,” the attorneys wrote. “Jeffrey Epstein is dead. Ghislaine Maxwell is not. Whatever interest the public may have in Epstein, that interest cannot justify a broad intrusion into grand jury secrecy in a case where the defendant is alive, her legal options are viable, and her due process rights remain.”

“Disclosure of grand jury materials at this stage risks irreparably tainting the legal process by injecting sealed testimony into the public debate while judicial review is ongoing,” the document continued. “The reputational harm from releasing incomplete, potentially misleading grand jury testimony, untested by cross-examination, would be severe and irrevocable.”

The attorneys noted that the grand jury materials were “being sought in this case due to immense public interest in Jeffrey Epstein’s and Ghislaine Maxwell’s cases, along with public interest in the government’s handling of those investigations and prosecutions.”

“There is no precedent for unsealing grand jury transcripts in an ongoing matter like Maxwell’s case,” they concluded. “Accordingly, the government’s motion should be denied.”

Maxwell’s insistence that the grand jury documents not be unsealed comes after she met for two days with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, who was previously President Donald Trump’s personal attorney. Soon after, Maxwell was moved to a lower-security prison camp.
