NEWSMAX -- Ghislaine Maxwell, the girlfriend of disgraced late financier Jeffrey Epstein, stated in newly reviewed transcripts that she did not believe the government's narrative that Epstein died by suicide, Axios first reported.
On Friday the Department of Justice released the transcripts of the official interview with Maxwell along with dozens of other documents. Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche interviewed Maxwell in July where she said, "I do not believe he died by suicide, no."
"Do you have any speculation or view of who killed him," Blanche asked to which Maxwell responded, "No, I do not." Maxwell added that while she has no firsthand knowledge of what may have happen to Epstein, she said he was not known to have been suicidal.
Maxwell added that in prison someone can be killed for a very small amount of money. "In prison, where I am, they will kill you or they will pay — somebody can pay a prisoner to kill you for $25 worth of commissary. That’s about the going rate for a hit with a lock today," she said adding, "I don’t think Epstein had a hit on like that if it is indeed murder, I believe it was an internal situation [in jail]."
