Ghislaine Maxwell, the former madame of late sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, invoked the 5th Amendment during her deposition before the House Oversight Committee.
“As expected, Ghislaine Maxwell took the Fifth and refused to answer any questions,” said Chairman James Comer. “This is obviously very disappointing.”
Maxwell appeared before the Committee as part of Comer’s probe into the Epstein files and the late billionaire’s dealings.
The deposition was a closed-door interview. Maxwell was expected to plead the 5th.
