JUST IN: Obama Judge Refuses DOJ Request to Unseal Ghislaine Maxwell Grand Jury Records
Last month, Attorney General Pam Bondi filed a petition to release the full grand jury record from the Ghislaine Maxwell case.
And, like clockwork, a federal judge has just blocked that effort.
Judge Paul Engelmayer, an Obama appointee, denied the DOJ’s request to unseal the grand jury records from Ghislaine Maxwell’s case.
Take a look:

JUST IN: Manhattan Judge Paul Engelmayer — an Obama appointee — just BLOCKED the Trump admin’s effort to unseal the entire grand jury record from the Ghislaine Maxwell case.
This means key testimony tied to Jeffrey Epstein’s network, potential high-profile names, and the full proceedings will stay hidden from the public.
Pam Bondi petitioned for release on July 18, but Engelmayer claimed the government didn’t make a “compelling case” — even with the massive public interest.
What are they protecting… and WHO?
Should these files be released?
In effort to be transparent about the Jeffrey Epstein case, DOJ asked a federal judge to unseal grand jury records in the Ghislaine Maxwell case.

In his ruling, Judge Engelemayer said he is refusing to unseal the grand jury transcripts because they do not reveal anything new related to Maxwell or Epstein.
He argued that the records definitely do not implicate anyone other than Ghislaine Maxwell and Jeffrey Epstein.
Don’t worry, there’s nothing to see here, folks…
Just shut up and take the judge’s word for it!
The New York Post has more:
US District Judge Paul Engelmayer said the transcripts revealed “next to nothing new” — in a scathing decision that ripped the Justice Department for overhyping the files, going so far as to suggest it was all a “diversion.”
“There is no ‘there’ there,” Engelmayer wrote in his searing 31-page ruling finding that the DOJ failed to make a compelling case to disclose the grand jury testimony, which typically remains sealed.
The “entire premise — that the Maxwell grand jury materials would bring to light meaningful new information about Epstein’s and Maxwell’s crimes, or the Government’s investigation into them — is demonstrably false,” he wrote.
“The court’s review confirmed that unsealing the grand jury materials would not reveal new information of any consequence.”
In a sharp jab, the judge said that the best argument for releasing the files was to demonstrate how “disingenuous” the DOJ has been in its arguments for unsealing the transcripts.
“[One] might conclude that the Government’s motion for their unsealing was aimed not at ‘transparency’ but at diversion—aimed not at full disclosure but at the illusion of such,” Engelmayer wrote.
The judge also said that Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche, when asked to highlight any new pieces of information in the testimony, flagged only “scattered words, clauses and occasional sentences” that would provide “next to nothing new” for any member of the public interested in knowing more about Epstein’s sick sex schemes.
The government had provided the judge with a copy of the transcripts and their highlighted portions on Friday.
“The materials do not identify any person other than Epstein and Maxwell as having had sexual contact with a minor. They do not discuss or identify any client of Epstein’s or Maxwell’s,” Engelmayer wrote.
“They do not reveal any heretofore unknown means or methods of Epstein’s or Maxwell’s crimes,” he continued. “They do not reveal new venues at which their crimes occurred. They do not reveal new sources of their wealth. They do not explore the circumstances of Epstein’s death. They do not reveal the path of the Government’s investigation.”
I’m sorry, but if there really is “no ‘there’ there,” as this judge claims, then, why can’t we see it ourselves?
Super sketchy…
It’s notable that Ghislaine Maxwell’s lawyers did not want the transcripts released, either.
The New York Times reported:
Ms. Maxwell was arrested a year after Mr. Epstein’s death and in December 2021 was found guilty of sex trafficking and other charges. Her conviction was affirmed on appeal. She has asked the Supreme Court to review her case.
Ms. Maxwell’s lawyers have argued that she had been scapegoated by federal prosecutors who had no one else to prosecute after Mr. Epstein died. The lawyers had resisted the government’s request to release the transcripts, writing that while Mr. Epstein is dead, “Ghislaine Maxwell is not.”
“Whatever interest the public may have in Epstein, that interest cannot justify a broad intrusion into grand jury secrecy in a case where the defendant is alive, her legal options are viable and her due process rights remain,” they said.
Hmm.
This whole thing is very suspicious.
What are they trying to hide?
If there’s nothing “there”, why not just release it? Why do we have to take the judges word for it?
