Here is my conclusion after sitting through Maxwell's deposition with her refusing to answer a single question about the men who raped underage girls, saying she would only do so for clemency.
She must immediately be sent back to the maximum security prison where she belongs.

Let’s remember: Maxwell is not just Epstein’s pal. She is also a trafficker and a serial abuser of women and girls. She was right at the heart of one of the most notorious sex trafficking rings in history. Despite all that, Trump himself says a pardon for Maxwell is on the table.
