A federal judge has denied a request from the Justice Department under the Trump administration to unseal grand jury materials in the case of Ghislaine Maxwell. Judge Paul Engelmayer of the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York issued a 31-page order on Monday rejecting the government's petition. Maxwell, a former associate of Jeffrey Epstein, is currently serving a 20-year sentence for sex trafficking.
