U.S. District Judge Paul Engelmayer has granted a Justice Department request to unseal grand jury transcripts and other investigative materials from the Ghislaine Maxwell sex trafficking case, citing the newly enacted Epstein Files Transparency Act, which requires the public release of Epstein‑related documents by December 19, 2025. The ruling could make hundreds more records from the Epstein and Maxwell investigations available to the public, subject to redactions to protect victims’ identities.
A federal judge in the US has given the Department of Justice the green light to release materials from the investigation that led to Ghislaine Maxwell's conviction in 2021. The materials include secret grand jury transcripts and investigative documents, potentially spanning thousands of pages. The decision follows Congress's approval in November of a bill to release Epstein- and Maxwell-related documents.
