President Donald Trump said he had no knowledge of Ghislaine Maxwell’s recent prison transfer and didn’t personally approve it.
“I didn’t know about it at all, nope, I read about it just like you did,” Trump said Tuesday.
The president was asked about Maxwell during an event tied to the upcoming 2028 Olympic Games, which will be held in Los Angeles. A reporter first asked whether he had signed off on the transfer.
Then came a follow-up, “Do you believe Maxwell is credible?”
Trump didn’t answer that directly. Instead, he defended Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche — his former personal attorney — who met with Maxwell one-on-one just before the transfer.
