The British socialite and Epstein’s former girlfriend had pushed to keep federal grand jury materials out of the public following the Trump Justice Department’s request to unseal them, Courthouse News Service reported. On Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Loretta Preska granted the release of the documents.
In her opinion, Preska outlined her decision.
“As noted above, Maxwell has lodged a veritable kitchen sink of objections to the government’s request to publish the sealed materials in compliance with the Act,” Preska wrote.
“The court finds that all of Maxwell’s objections are meritless and that, in light of the Act, any remaining materials in the Government’s possession should become part of the public record, subject to any victim-protecting redactions authorized by the Act,” Preska wrote.

Maxwell was convicted in 2021 for her role in Epstein’s sex trafficking operation.
“Preska ruled that the Epstein Files Transparency Act, signed by President Donald Trump in November 2025, blows past previous secrecy orders, grand jury protections and Maxwell’s privacy objections, finding there was a ‘compelling need’ to finally crack open any documents that have remained hidden from the public,” Radar Online reported.
