Following the release of the interview transcript, Brittany Henderson, an attorney who has represented scores of Epstein victims, said Maxwell's testimony should carry little weight.

"Ghislaine Maxwell was federally indicted on two perjury counts as a result of her testimony during her civil deposition. Having been convicted of sex trafficking, she is now in jail presumably hoping that she will receive a pardon from President Trump," Henderson said in a statement. "I can't imagine that her testimony will be given much weight by anyone with any knowledge whatsoever of her involvement with Jeffrey Epstein."

This is interesting though:

Maxwell told Blanche she had a friendship with former President Clinton after being introduced by a mutual acquaintance, she said.

"President Clinton was my friend, not Epstein's friend," she said. "President Clinton liked me, and we got along terribly well. But I never saw that warmth with Mr. Epstein."

Maxwell said she had suggested to Epstein that he allow Clinton to use his private jumbo-jet to fly to multiple international destinations in Africa, Asia and Europe in the early 2000's, after the end of his presidency. Clinton, Maxwell said, had no particular interest in Epstein other than having the use of his plane.

"They met because of me and the plane was because of me," she said. "I didn't see President Clinton being interested in Epstein. He was just a rich guy with the plane."
