Maxwell’s collaboration with the US prosecutor continues: amid political pressure, high-profile names and cross-accusations, Trump denies links, Clinton in the spotlight.

The Jeffrey Epstein case is once again shaking the United States, raising questions and fears among the upper echelons of politics, finance and celebrity. At the centre of the new wave of revelations is Ghislaine Maxwell, the financier’s former associate, who, according to her lawyer David Oscar Markus, has provided the US prosecutor’s office with a list of 100 people involved in the network of relationships of the disgraced billionaire.

Maxwell, currently in custody after being sentenced to 20 years in prison for sex trafficking of minors, is cooperating with Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche in meetings that her lawyer describes as “productive”. The unstated but obvious goal is to obtain a reduction in her sentence or a relaxation of her prison conditions, which her lawyer has described as “terrible”.

Meanwhile, political and media pressure is mounting. The Wall Street Journal has published new investigations tracing Epstein’s links to numerous global power brokers, including Leon Black, fashion designer Vera Wang and tycoon Mort Zuckerman. However, the name that is causing the most stir is that of Donald Trump.

The name that is causing the most noise, however, is that of Donald Trump, President of the United States, who is currently in Scotland on business. The tycoon has reiterated that he had no significant relationship with Epstein, branding the scandal a “hoax” and a “witch hunt orchestrated by the radical left”. Trump also denied writing an “obscene” letter to the financier and speculated that it was a forgery intended to damage him: “It’s happened before”.

When pressed on the issue of pardoning Maxwell, Trump preferred to gloss over it: ‘I haven’t thought about it yet.’

Bill Clinton is also under scrutiny, who, according to the WSJ, had regular contact with Epstein, as confirmed by an affectionate letter written for his 50th birthday, now the subject of public attention. The message recalls ‘years of learning, friendship and childlike curiosity’. A spokesperson for the former president declined to comment, noting only that contact had ceased well before 2019, the year of Epstein’s arrest and death.

Maxwell’s cooperation could now represent a crucial turning point in the investigation into a network of abuse and power that has been rocking America for years. The Supreme Court is expected to rule shortly on the woman’s appeal, while the names disclosed could have political and legal repercussions on a global scale.
