Ghislaine Maxwell is expected to provide video testimony to Congress as part of lawmakers’ ongoing review of Jeffrey Epstein’s criminal network, officials say.
The scheduled appearance comes amid intensified legislative scrutiny of Epstein-related documents and activities involving his known associates. Maxwell’s testimony will be delivered via recorded video, with congressional panels indicating they plan to ask detailed questions about her knowledge of Epstein’s conduct and the operations surrounding his victims.
Lawmakers from both parties have shown interest in obtaining clarity from Maxwell about her role and awareness of Epstein’s activities before his death in federal custody. The session is seen as an opportunity to fill in gaps left by prior investigations and to inform potential legislative responses.
Maxwell, who was convicted on multiple charges connected to aiding Epstein’s exploitation of minors, is currently incarcerated. Her video testimony will take place under controlled conditions, with members of relevant committees participating in the questioning.
The move to secure Maxwell’s account reflects Congress’s broader effort to compile firsthand information from individuals closely linked to Epstein’s circle. The testimony is anticipated to contribute to public understanding of the case and potentially influence future policy discussions on oversight and protections related to human trafficking and abuse.
