David Oscar Markus, attorney for Ghislaine Maxwell, appealed to President Donald Trump to give his client a pardon.

On Monday, Maxwell’s lawyers filed a document with the U.S. Supreme Court arguing that her conviction should be overturned because the U.S. government entered into a non-prosecution agreement with Jeffrey Epstein.

Markus later wrote on X that Maxwell was also asking Trump to intervene.

“No one is above the law—not even the Southern District of New York,” he wrote. “Our government made a deal, and it must honor it. The United States cannot promise immunity with one hand in Florida and prosecute with the other in New York.”

“President Trump built his legacy in part on the power of a deal—and surely he would agree that when the United States gives its word, it must stand by it,” Markus added. “We are appealing not only to the Supreme Court but to the President himself to recognize how profoundly unjust it is to scapegoat Ghislaine Maxwell for Epstein’s crimes, especially when the government promised she would not be prosecuted.”
