WASHINGTON — Former Attorney General Pam Bondi told House lawmakers Friday that socialite and convicted sex trafficker Ghislaine Maxwell should “die in prison.”
Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon told The Post following Bondi’s four-hour transcribed interview before the House Oversight Committee that the 60-year-old also declared twice that Maxwell, the accomplice and occasional girlfriend of convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein should not receive a presidential pardon.
“Females who collaborate with sex offenders are worse because they procure other victims for the sex offender,” Dhillon said Bondi had expressed.
The former AG also maintained that the 64-year-old Maxwell, who is currently serving a 20-year federal prison sentence after being convicted in late 2021 on charges including sex trafficking conspiracy and trafficking of a minor, was “very evil” and should serve the full sentence.
The House Oversight Committee is investigating the Department of Justice’s handling of files related to Epstein, who was found dead in his Manhattan jail cell Aug. 10, 2019, while awaiting his own trial on federal trafficking charges.
