‘Demonstrably false’: Judge denies DOJ bid to unseal Maxwell grand jury records in Epstein case

A US judge has denied the Justice Department’s request to unseal grand jury records from Ghislaine Maxwell’s sex trafficking case, ruling they reveal ‘next to nothing new” about Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein, or their associates. Judge Paul Engelmayer dismissed claims of hidden secrets as ‘demonstrably false.’ The decision follows Donald Trump’s push to release the files, despite the DOJ confirming the rumored “Epstein client list” doesn’t exist, keeping the case shrouded in mystery.
