Says in support of justice department Request to request Grand jury proceedings tape, due to which sex trafficking prosecution of New York Financer and Sex Abuser was led Jeffrey Epstein And British Sochelight Ghishline Maxwell They include only two law enforcement witnesses testimony.
In a filing late Tuesday night in the Manhattan federal court, the authorities described the Grand Jury witnesses in a memorandum in response to a call from judges presiding over both cases to provide more information about their request earlier this month. Judges will have to approve any request to unresolved the records.
Gorgeous jury tapes are rarely issued by courts, unless they need to disclose in relation to judicial proceedings. The letters filed on Tuesday cited the second US Circuit Court of Appeals of 1997, stating that judges have comprehensive conscience and public interests can justify the release of grand juries alone.
Epstein Grand Jury heard only an FBI agent, when it met in June and July 2019, while Maxwell Grand Jury heard from the same FBI agent and New York Police Department detective when it met in June and July in July and July 2020 and in March 2021.
Memorandum was signed by American Attorney J. Clayton for the southern district of New York, and included the names of Attorney General Palm Body and Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanches.
The Department of Justice requested to ignore the tapes after annoying parts of the Aadhaar of President Donald Trump’s supporters, when it was announced in early July that it would not publicly public any more Epstein files. The decision not to make additional materials public shocked some Trump supporters as their administration members had hiped the expected release and stopped conspiracies around the well -connected financier.
Epstein took his life In a federal prison in August 2019, weeks after arrest of sex smuggling charges, officials say, but their case has created endless attention and conspiracy principles for famous people like Royals, President and Billowaire including Trump and Maxwell’s links.
Maxwell is serving a 20 -year jail sentence after Maxwell He sentenced to December 2021 Allegations of sex trafficking, alleging that he was accused of sexually abusing the teenage girls. Last week, she was sitting for 1 1/2 days Interview with officials of justice department In Florida, while answering “about 100 different people” questions, his lawyer said. The Deputy Attorney General said that Maxwell was being interviewed due to Trump’s instruction and instructions to gather any reliable evidence about others, who have committed crimes.
Trump has denied earlier knowledge of Epstein’s crimes and claimed that he had cut his relationship long ago. But he is running Questions about Epstein caseCare of the achievements of your administration. When reporters last week pressed the Republican President about forgiving Maxwell, they stressed, emphasizing the successes of their administration.
After request to ignore the grand jury records, Two former prosecutors The Associated Press in Manhattan reported that the tapes will be relatively low and will only be a testimony of law enforcement witnesses who are talking about evidence that track information in prosecution.
In its filing on Tuesday, the Department of Justice reduced the expectations that the grand jury tape would make new revelations when it was said that “some aspects and themes” became public during the testing of Maxwell contained in them.
The memorandum stated that the accounts related to Epstein and Maxwell came under the grand jury testimony of several victims, testifying in the test described by the FBI agent and NYPD detective and some information was made public through civil litigation.
The government said that no Epstein or Maxwell family members have come forward to express interest in the request to ignore the grand jury tape, although Maxwell has indicated that she will register a position with the court.
The memorandum says that the request to ignore the tape is “corresponding to the increasing call for additional revelations in the case.”
“Undoubtedly Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislane Maxwell have clearly expressed interest to the public in crimes,” it says. “In addition, there is abundant public interest in the investigative work done by the Department of Justice and the Bureau of Investigation in those crimes.”
Under the 2008 non-her-initiative agreement, Epstein convicted a minor for prostitution in Florida for allegations of allegations of prostitution. This allowed him to reduce the punishment of a possible life, instead served 13 months in a work release program. They needed to pay the victims and register as a sexual criminal.
Epstein was later charged for almost equal allegations in 2019 by federal prosecutors in Manhattan.
