A Manhattan federal judge on Tuesday ordered the release of grand jury records tied to the criminal case of notorious pedophile Jeffrey Epstein’s accomplice Ghislaine Maxwell — but warned that the material would not yield “new information of any consequence.”
Federal prosecutors must publish the records — including search warrants and grand jury testimony — because of the law President Trump signed last month compelling the release of all Epstein-related documents, Judge Paul Engelmayer found.
But the judge cautioned that the new records would not reveal any bombshells to members of the public that followed Maxwell’s 2021 trial, where she was convicted of multiple sex crimes for helping Epstein abuse girls as young as 14.

The Maxwell grand jury records are only a fraction of the vast trove of material that the Justice Department and FBI collected during their investigations into Epstein.
A federal judge in Florida has separately ordered the release of grand jury transcripts from the sex-trafficking probes of Epstein and Maxwell in the Sunshine State.
Maxwell, 63, is serving out a 20-year prison sentence on convictions related to sex-trafficking minors.
The Trump administration this summer transferred her to a cushy, low-security lockup in Texas without providing a public explanation.
