The records show Maxwell repeatedly showering Trump with praise and denying under questioning that she had observed Trump engaged in any form of sexual behaviour.
Maxwell also said that she was unaware of any so-called “client list”, saying that she never personally witnessed any sexual abuse by Epstein.
The transcripts represent the latest Trump administration effort to repair self-inflicted political wounds after failing to deliver on expectations around the Epstein case, much of it created through conspiracy theories spread by officials, including Trump himself.
Her trial featured sordid accounts of the sexual exploitation of girls as young as 14 told by four women who described being abused as teens in the 1990s and early 2000s at Epstein’s homes.
Asked if she ever heard Epstein or anyone else say Trump “had done anything inappropriate with masseuses” or anyone else in their orbit, Maxwell replied, “Absolutely never, in any context.”
Trump has said he had a falling-out with Epstein years ago and well before Epstein came under investigation.
She also spoke glowingly of Prince Andrew, and dismissed as “rubbish” the late Virginia Giuffre’s claim that she was paid to have a relationship with Andrew and that he had sex with her at Maxwell’s London home.
Though she acknowledged that at one point Epstein began preferring younger women, she insisted she never understood that to “encompass children.”
“And then the slide to, you know, or younger looking women. But I never considered that this would encompass criminal behavior.”
The saga has consumed the Trump administration following a two-page announcement from the FBI and Justice Department last month that Epstein had killed himself, that a “client list” did not actually exist, and that no additional documents from the investigation were suitable to be released.
That expectation was driven in part by comments from officials, including FBI Director Kash Patel and Deputy Director Dan Bongino, who on podcasts before taking their current positions had repeatedly promoted the idea that damaging details about prominent people were being withheld.
