Why is the US Justice Department going to see Ghislaine Maxwell?

Donald Trump is said to be furious that the Jeffery Epstein stpry is still hogging the headlines. He had hoped that with the summer recess, it would all calm down and he could get on with other more important things. But now Justice Department officials are expected to visit Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein's former associate, in prison where she is serving 20 years for aiding Epstein's trafficking of young girls. What, one has to ask, do the officials expect to be told by Ms Maxwell? Even if she tells them the names of every high-profile person on her former boss's supposed client list, what will they do with it and what proof can she provide? She has been appealing against her sentennce but without any luck. Does she hope perhaps that if she cooperates fully with the Justice Department visitors, they might support her case for a more lenient sentence? But that wouldn't look good for those in Washington who are convinced there is a huge conspiracy going on here and wouldn't look kindly on Ms Maxwell marching out of jail before she has finished her sentence. So, I suspect the visit to her prison will elicit very little, especially since a judge has already ruled that the evidence given during the grand jury hearings into Epstein cannot be release because there are strict laws of confidentiality with grand juries. For Trump it means the Epstein scandal is going to run and run.
