House Oversight Chairman James Comer on Wednesday officially issued a subpoena for Jeffrey Epstein’s associate Ghislaine Maxwell to sit for a deposition next month.
The deposition will take place at the prison where Maxwell is currently serving a 20-year sentence for child sex trafficking and related offenses. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche has said he will meet with Maxwell in the coming days too.
“I have issued a subpoena to Ghislaine Maxwell for a deposition to occur at Federal Correctional Institution Tallahassee on August 11, 2025,” Comer said in a post on X. ” The Department of Justice is cooperating and will help facilitate the deposition at the prison.”
The subpoena comes a day after a House Oversight subcommittee voted to issue the order. However, any attempt to get a final floor vote on any Epstein-related matter before the House goes on recess later Wednesday is unlikely.
The order also comes after a joint Justice Department-FBI memo released on July 6 said Epstein had no client list, died by suicide, and did not blackmail prominent individuals.
