Maxwell had limited immunity during meetings with deputy AG: Sources

Source: Yahoo News

Ghislaine Maxwell, who sources told ABC News initiated the meetings with the Department of Justice, answered questions for about nine hours over two days after being granted a limited form of immunity, the sources said.

The immunity allowed Maxwell to freely answer Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche's questions without fear that her responses could later be used against her, the sources said.

The so-called proffer immunity is commonly granted to individuals prosecutors are seeking to make cooperators in a criminal case. Maxwell has already been tried, convicted and sentenced for sex trafficking underage girls.

But she needs to watch late night visitors in her jail cell if she doesn’t bow to the Orange pedo President.

Are they setting up for a possible criminal trial against the orange one? I know it sounds odd but, everything so far has been weird.

6. Not Todd Blanche, he'd never want to do that

He's there for the sole purpose of getting Chump off scot-free.

16. Thats what I have been saying all week... I completely agree, a no brainer. Thats what they do, always!!!!

Orangeman was tipped what to say today at the airport about who people should be talking about::

Bill Clinton
ex Harvard prez
Wall Street guys

It won't be a coincidence when thats who we hear about straightaway from this creature Maxwell...

And she will never say anything about Orangeman...

That anyone thought she would do anything else besides getting herself out of prison sooner with this DO doesn't understand how corrupt they are...

5. This is a setup.

They're going to give her "immunity", get her to say whatever they tell her to say against everyone on Trump's hit list, he'll pardon her so she can't be prosecuted for false testimony, and then she walks from jail.

That's exactly the criminal deal that's happening right in front of our eyes, as we speak.

7. If that's what they're doing, why didn't they offer the same deal to Epstein?

Epstein could have lied, gone free, and that would have really exonerated Chump.
No I don't think we have all the pieces of the puzzle yet.

10. Because Epstein had physical possession of the tapes

They needed him silenced and they needed physical control of whatever evidence was in his possession. Trump very likely is now using it for blackmail himself.

9. The only reason to have such a meeting is to get everyone's lies straight.
Fri Jul 25, 2025, 07:30 PM

As long as she lies the way she is told, the prosecutors won’t question her. And then she gets a pardon.

11. So is the reason for the immunity to keep her from being prosecuted for lying?

What else is there?

12. She had to be promised something to agree to this meeting.

Limited immunity for talking in the meeting is ONE thing, but she had to have been promised something else in order to be willing to do this. THAT is what isn't being reported.

I think she's setting someone(s) up and will exonerate Trump, and then will walk free. There has to be a deal.

And I'm going to keep saying this until my dying breath - there is no way that ANYONE can see those tapes of Donald Trump where he talks about Ivanka and not SEE that something is weird about that sonofabitch. He's guilty as sin for raping young girls, and anyone who participates in a cover up of that should be nailed to the wall (literally).

13. Why does she need immunity?
Fri Jul 25, 2025, 08:38 PM

She’s already been tried and convicted.
Unless she plans to lie under oath, and needs immunity from prosecution for that.

15. She got more than limited immunity.
Fri Jul 25, 2025, 10:11 PM

I'd bet my back teeth that she got a promise of time off her sentence if she fingered every major Democrat in office for the last 30 years.

"I would like you to do us a favor though..."

Everything Trump does is a "deal", a transaction.
