Ghislaine Maxwell filed a Supreme Court appeal arguing she should be covered by Jeffrey Epstein's controversial plea deal.

The Justice Department on Monday defended prosecuting Jeffrey Epstein’s madam Ghislaine Maxwell — as US Attorney General Pam Bondi faces a brewing firestorm over files related to the notorious pedophile.

The DOJ moved to unseal Epstein and Maxwell grand jury transcripts, citing public interest and transparency after a review found no grounds for new charges.

Maxwell submitted a plea to to overturn her conviction, saying she was covered by a non-prosecution deal made between Jeffrey Epstein and the U.S. government.

Alan Dershowitz, a former attorney for disgraced financier Jeffrey Epstein, called on the U.S. Justice Department Sunday to release additional records from its investigation into Epstein’s sex-trafficking case and suggested granting Ghislaine Maxwell immunity so she could testify about Epstein’s activities.

The move furthers scrutiny of Attorney General Pam Bondi and President Donald Trump's administration's handling of the Epstein case files.

Donald Trump's plan to publicize court documents in the Jeffrey Epstein case is actually a calculated "strategy" to avoid the scandal, and Pam Bondi is "aiding and abetting" him, according to a former federal prosecutor.

The Justice Department's alleged lack of transparency in its Epstein memo has sparked frustration among many Trump supporters.
