Will Ghislaine Maxwell spill the beans before Congress? The Fifth Amendment lets a witness refuse to answer any question if the answer could expose them to criminal liability. A few key points that matter here: It’s question-by-question. She has to be asked something first, then she can invoke the Fifth. It applies even after conviction if: There’s potential exposure to other crimes
There are uncharged co-conspirators Her answers could lead to new investigations or charges
She doesn’t have to explain why answering would be risky—just that it is.
So if a member asks: “Did you introduce X politician to Epstein?” She can simply say:
“On the advice of counsel, I respectfully invoke my Fifth Amendment right.”
