Trump pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell may be requested if her latest appeal is rejected, her brother says, citing alleged judicial bias and Trump’s past clemency decisions

A Trump pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell could soon become a concrete option if her latest legal appeal is rejected. The possibility has been confirmed by her brother, Ian Maxwell, in an interview with la Repubblica, reigniting debate over the high-profile case linked to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s former partner and associate, is currently serving a 20-year prison sentence after being convicted of sex trafficking minors. Despite exhausting most legal avenues, her family insists she will not give up. According to Ian Maxwell, a Trump pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell would be the logical next step should the courts definitively close the door.

“My sister is innocent,” Ian Maxwell said, claiming that evidence exists showing bias and procedural misconduct during the trials. He argues that U.S. authorities withheld information and that no truly incriminating material has ever emerged against her.

Maxwell has recently filed another appeal, once again challenging the integrity of the judicial process. “The U.S. government covered up key information,” her brother said, adding that the case was built on flawed assumptions and public pressure rather than solid proof.

In a personal account, Ian Maxwell revealed a recent conversation with his sister. “She told me: ‘Ian, I’ve lost all my judicial appeals, but I’m not giving up. I still have hope.’” That hope, he suggests, may now rest on a Trump pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell.

Ian Maxwell pointed to Donald Trump’s record on clemency, recalling that the former president pardoned around 1,500 people involved in the January 6 Capitol attack in 2021. “Trump is a president who makes independent decisions,” he said. “And without the pressure of a third term, which he cannot seek, he could act freely.”

The idea of a Trump pardon for Ghislaine Maxwell is likely to spark intense political and public controversy, given the global attention surrounding the Epstein case and its powerful connections. For now, it remains a potential — but highly explosive — final move in a legal saga far from over.
