A judge on Monday denied the Trump administration's motion to unseal grand jury testimony from the criminal case against Jeffrey Epstein associate Ghislaine Maxwell.

A federal judge has rejected the Trump Administration’s request to unseal transcripts of the grand jury testimony that led to the indictment of Ghislaine Maxwell, who was convicted of sex-trafficking related charges and was a long-time associate of the convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

Federal prosecutors had asked to unseal the documents, in an effort to calm a whirlpool of suspicions about what the government knows about Jeffrey Epstein.
