Ghislaine Maxwell, the former madame of late sex-trafficker Jeffrey Epstein, invoked the 5th Amendment during her deposition before the House Oversight Committee.”As expected, Ghislaine Maxwell took the Fifth and refused to answer any questions,” said Chairman James Comer. “This is obviously very disappointing.”
