“The Oversight Committee will respond to Ms. Maxwell’s attorney soon, but it will not consider granting congressional immunity for her testimony.”
Ghislaine Maxwell’s request for congressional immunity in exchange for her testimony has reportedly been denied. This comes as the House Oversight Committee has subpoenaed Maxwell, who is set to appear in a hearing on August 11.
A spokesperson for the committee told the Daily Mail, “The Oversight Committee will respond to Ms. Maxwell’s attorney soon, but it will not consider granting congressional immunity for her testimony.”
Maxwell’s lawyer, David Markus, sent a document for the letter demanding that conditions be met in exchange for her testimony. “Public reports—including your own statements—indicate that the committee intends to question Ms. Maxwell in prison and without a grant of immunity. Those are non-starters,” the letter stated.
“Ms. Maxwell cannot risk further criminal exposure in a politically charged environment without formal immunity. Nor is a prison setting conducive to eliciting truthful and complete testimony. The potential for leaks from such a setting creates real security risks and undermines the integrity of the process,” the letter continued.
