From Newsweek:
A Jeffrey Epstein sexual assault survivor has issued a dire warning for the United States justice system if Ghislaine Maxwell was to be granted a presidential pardon.
Critics have speculated that President Donald Trump could pardon Maxwell following her meeting with Department of Justice officials to answer fresh questions about the Epstein case. When asked about that possibility Friday, Trump failed to rule it out, instead telling reporters outside the White House that he was “allowed to do it” but it was “something I haven’t thought about.” Teresa Helm, now a sexual exploitation survivor coordinator, told MSNBC Friday that a pardon for Epstein’s ex-girlfriend and associate Maxwell, “would mean the complete crumbling of this justice system.”
